Yes. If I'm going to be doing a number of commands, I use it, then log out.	[reply]

Did you notice the hyphen in hdb's message? It was not strictly for decoration. `use Moops; class Cow :rw { has name => (default => 'Ermintrude') }; say Cow->new->name`	[reply]

Thanks for calling attention to that. Considering I was posting sometime past 3 AM, no, I didn't. I didn't even notice it, didn't even think about it. If you hadn't said something, I would have missed it completely. I haven't used the dash on sudo in years and had forgotten about it. Thanks for pointing that out and reminding me.	[reply]
