But then we get back to the issue of someone using TextEdit to do that.

I used to do it often.  Older versions of TextEdit apparently preserved 
whatever line break style it found on opening.

Now however, it outputs legacy Mac line breaks, but only on lines that 
are edited.  So if I edit a script in TextEdit, I have to use perl to 
repair it after saving.  Otherwise it will fail on the next run when it 
gets to the edited line.

TextWrangler is one way to avoid that, but it is slightly more work to 
launch than TextEdit.  'vim,' no thanks.  Better than ''vi' but not by much.

Hmm.  As a long time unix user and a user of OS X since it was
released,  I'm confused about your assertion.

I think Apple's goal has _always_ been to make Macs dummy-friendly.
From my perspective they have combined that (since OS X began) with
also making Macs friendly to many much more sophisticated computer 
users.  Which seems like a good trick, and not one that I see being
jeopardized.  

I realize that the world of computers is no stranger to snobbery, and
I realize you may personally not take advantage of the
dummy-friendliness, but if the dummy-friendliness doesn't prevent you
from using your computer to do the tasks you need to do, why should it
be a bad thing?

It does that in Mail.  Every few minutes, a new Draft is created.
When the final draft is sent, the others are deleted--sometimes.
But they all go in the trash, so if you delete something you didn't want 
to delete, you have to wade through a zillion versions of your own 
messages to find the one you want to recover.

On my system, and it's been like this with every version of Mail since 
10.1, there are no duplicate copies of messages in the Drafts folder, and 
when a message is sent, it's removed from the Drafts folder, and only one 
copy is placed in the Sent folder, and none in the Trash.

I never saw this until this year.  So I assumed it was a "feature" of 
Lion.  But it's possible it is something stupid that GMail did.

Or a combination of both.

Michelle is correct in her description of Mail's behavior. I don't know
where this behavior is coming from, but it has nothing to do with the
Mac OS or Mail.app--unless there is some well hidden setting that I am
unaware of and that is off by default but somehow got switched on on
your machine. I doubt that, however. I forwarded a description of this
behavior to several of my Mac-using friends and none of them had seen
or heard of such a thing. We have not seen it on the five Macs that we
have in regular use in our home.

Versions is useless to me where I need versioning because I already have 
better solutions.  It is a waste of resources where I don't need it.

Autosave is useless to me anywhere, and harmful in a few places.

Lion has no other new features worth anything at all to me.

Therefore installing Lion has degraded my computer.  If I had known, I 
would not have installed it.  Now it is impractical to go back.

How many resources are you talking about? Practically NONE.

Where is it harmful? You can revert to any previous version.

Mission Control is brilliant and makes massive and welcome improvements
to Spaces (which I'd stopped using out of annoyance a long time ago) and
Exposé. WHile Full Screen Apps are a bad joke on my desktop machine,
they are absolutely brilliant on my MacBookPro. 

The much improved gestures in Lion have made a huge impact in how I use
my computers (though you won't really see this without a trackpad). 

The improvements to Mail's feature set in 10.7 were also very welcome,
and I use the 'favorites' bar almost exclusively to switch mailboxes now.

In addition, there are all sorts of little features that I really like.
I can select, for example, a bunch of items in my download folder and
then rclick and say "Make a new folder with these items." I don't use
that often, but when I do, I sure appreciate it.

Screen Sharing got a huge improvement in that I can use it to login to a
remote machine that someone else is using and NOT have to login to their
session. They can keep working in their login, and I can be using my own
login at the same time. This is a *huge* improvement for me as it means
I no longer have to schedule most admin tasks overnight when the
machines aren't in use.

I know some people get their panties in a bunch over Resume, but I love
it. I can be in the middle of a bunch of work with dozens of open
documents and many unsaved changes and I can quite or even reboot
without delay and end up back exactly where I was.

If you know that, yes.  Otherwise, the inadvertantly-saved test you did 
needs to be manually reverted.  Enjoy.

MC is not functionality I use.  I don't use Spaces either.  Full Screen 
apps is funny.  Let's throw out the last 30 years of GUI and just use a 
terminal.

Great.  Now, instead of using one gesture to move to the top or the 
bottom of a long document, I have to scroll the whole way, or use the 
scroll bar.  Not an improvement.

I don't use Apple Mail.

Wow, it saves a click or two.  Very impressive.

I'm sure that doesn't impede their machine's performance at all.

Resume can be useful, okay.  But compared to the rest, it's not nearly 
enough to counterbalance things.  I installed SL on an external drive 
and am seriously considering switching to it.

I haven't used Spaces on a Mac, probably because I can navigate around 
apps well enough by either clicking on a visible bit of a window or on 
the app's icon in the Dock.  I do use the equivalent of Spaces on my 
Linux systems though.

That's how I feel too.  I recently tried Ubuntu's Unity to see what all 
the fuss is about.  I really *hated* having Firefox as full screen only 
and needing more than one click to get to another app, which also went 
full screen on me.

Apparently the idea behind the new Windows Metro* interface is that you 
can have a maximum of 2 apps side by side, with a third/two thirds 
split.  Can someone remind me why I bought a wide screen in the first 
place?  When I first got that screen I demoed it to colleagues by putting 
the same document in two different languages side by side and they 
immediately got the point.

I tried Ubuntu.  That wasn't the problem I had with it.  I dumped it for 
straight Debian, which works just fine.  Understand, I'm using it as a 
server, so its GUI isn't a big concern of mine.

Those are all good. If you wanted to add a dose of reality you could
call it "World's Leading Computer Operating System. Always Has Been,
Will Be For As Long As Anyone Can Foresee."

Or maybe that doesn't fit your worldview.

Depends on the definition of "leading."  In terms of innovation, it's 
mostly following.  Though they do come up with something on their own 
occasionally.

I think you know that Windows has ~90% of the world's PC operating
system market share, with an installed base of between one and two
/billion/ Windows machines, and from that you know what I mean by
"leading."

I wonder if there is, or has ever been, another monopoly as complete as
Microsoft's. AT&T had a near national, but not world, monopoly. I can't
think of any other product that so dominated their industry.

I can think of plenty of national monopolies but not a world wide one on

I've tried various flavours of Linux and am really looking for something 
that is both stable and reasonably up to date.  As mentioned recently in 
another news group you read recently, Fedora is "bleeding edge", but does 
provide up to date news reader and other software, which more stable 
versions don't.  However, the latest Fedora kernel update broke 
VirtualBox, so I'm back to considering something else.  I might end up 
running Fedora in a virtual machine yet...

Playschool! This was a UK children's TV programme shown from the 1964 to 
1988.

It featured a house with different shaped windows and the viewers were 
asked to guess which window we'd be looking through today.  Early 
episodes started with "Here's a house, here's a door. Windows: 1 2 3 4, 
ready to knock? Turn the lock - It's Play School."

Here we go:

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Play_School_%28UK_TV_series%
29#Contents_of_the_show>

"A section of each episode was a filmed excursion into the outside world 
taken through one of three windows: the young viewers were invited to 
guess whether the round, square, or arched window would be chosen that 
day. A triangular window was added in 1983."

I was in http://manshatshop.com/home/ the other day, buying a hat.  I 
ended up with a creme-colored straw fedora with a black band.  I asked 
about a red fedora, but they didn't have any. :-D  They could get one, 
though. :-o

One of my son's friends recently complained about not being able to find 
his red hat.  So I said "Use your Fedora" but he didn't get it.

Apparently he's not as geeky as I thought.
