<Pryon> Why, when I type <ctrl>-d, does dbx say "use `exit'"?
<Pryon> Why not just exit, you stupid-ass program?
<kjdavies> Pryon: ^D is 'End of File' in UNIX
<kjdavies> in many shell-type programs (including FTP, psql, and SQL*Plus, in UNIX), ^D will end the session
<Pryon> kjdavies: Yes, I wanted to end the session. If dbx knows this, why does it tell me to do something else? It's just st00pid
<Pryon> It's like dbx wants you to use a safe word, and assumes you're just enjoying the pain when you say "stop now" |
