UNIX update

So UNIX and I went to some classes a few weeks ago, we used GNOME and everything seemed to work fairly well. We hung around at tea time together, chatted about what we would do at the weekend; we were getting on and all seemed well.

I took UNIX back to work and we decided to show off some of our new skills. Horror! Horror! I royally loused up. Who would have thought that omitting a simple -m would lead to a literal hour editing an error file in Word to try and extract the bib numbers.

I suppose the moral of the story could be a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, perhaps, or maybe, pride comes before a fall. I don't think there is a moral, I should just be more careful with my code and revealing my weaknesses to UNIX over tea.

The saga continues.
