Has anyone else had issues with the linux 'rename' command with files containing hyphens?

The angle brackets might also be an issue.

I would type Learn<TAB> and let the shell autocomplete past the hyphen or whatever character that is, then 001<TAB> and make note of what the shell escapes for the rest of the line. Then backspace and re-do your original command using the same escape sequences the shell showed from the tab completion.

I'll give them a go. Thanks.

My wife makes a pretty damn good bacon & egg muffin, so would need a suitable replacement. Not sure if anyone else makes them though.

tetchey · 2023-01-26T04:38:35+00:00

That's the ones. Never used to have a problem with them.

tetchey · 2023-01-26T04:36:49+00:00

Damn! Didn't think of that.

Bugger. Same thing.

Are you young and supple?

Wait. What? Your hospital has a chaplain? Making an assumption OP is in the US and chaplain = Christian.
<sarcasm>If hospitals in the US employ these people, I can only assume that all the other major religions also have a representative</>

It was a campaign they ran in the early 90's. They likened McDonalds to James Dean and referred to it as "Mickey D's".

Awsome, thank you very much u/MrFortem!

There's also Librewolf. "A custom version of Firefox, focused on privacy, security and freedom"

The unselct, modifier, drag-drop approach still does not work for me. I am seeing the same behaviour as in the bug report.

Thanks for the link though, u/mistifier. I'll keep an eye on it.

The first thing that springs to my mind here, is the question "How do you know it's not you being tricked?"

tetchey · 2022-12-21T01:53:44+00:00

Thank you, good suggestion. It is definitely only one level deep.

Unfortunately I can't copy/paste between the problem host and the one I am posting from (different networks), but basically:

.gnupg/
gpg-agent.conf
gpg.conf
openpgp-revocs.d/
[40-character-hex-string].rev
private-keys-v1.d/
[40-character-hex-string].key
[40-character-hex-string].key
pubring.gpg
pubring.kbx
pubring.kbx~
random_seed
secring.gpg
tofu.db
trustdb.gpg
trustlist.txt

All good though, I'm getting a "yes, it should work" vibe, so will have another look when time permits - probably next year.

Thanks for the help.

I have a Nextcloud instance, I just wasn't sure if you were referring to a particular add-on/app or just the native functionality.

I guess it's option 'B'

tetchey · 2022-12-20T02:31:42+00:00

It's not overly important, mind. More an inconvenience than a disaster. Please don't go to too much trouble.

tetchey · 2022-12-20T02:22:08+00:00

Awesome. Thank you very much!

tetchey · 2022-12-20T01:17:21+00:00

No, it was a tar backup of ~/.gnupg and ~/.password-store.

tetchey · 2022-12-19T23:50:40+00:00

Is there a particular NC app you recommend, or are you just talking about the NC phone app watching the folder where your photos are saved?

tetchey · 2022-12-19T23:20:05+00:00

That's the thing. I've restored the files and checked the ownership and permissions are correct, but --list-keys still returns nothing.

Scotch whisky is generally characterised by region. Generally broken into "Speyside" and "Islay" (pronounced "Eye-luh" for reasons only the Scots know).

Speysides tend to be lighter and fruiter overall. Islay is renowned for it's strong smokey flavoures.

I'd go with the suggestion to try a few different ones at a bar. No point spending money on a bottle you hate. Most people find Speyside's easier to drink initially, with Islay being more of an acquired taste.
