moin, moin,
I posted this tool a while ago. They've got a new home. Comparisons of how
to do something in various *NIXen.
ciao,

Subject: [SAGE] New URL for Unix Rosetta Stone
My Unix Rosetta Stone page has been so popular (~1 GB/month of traffic)
that I've been forced to relocate it from Earthlink to FeaturePrice. The
new URL is http://bhami.com/rosetta.html . The old URL will redirect for at
least a few weeks.
I believe that as of yesterday I have incorporated all suggestions received
to date.
The PDF version is not working properly -- it half-paints, goes into some
sort of loop, and eventually you may have to kill your browser window
(similar behavior in either IE 6 or Netscape 6.2). I'll see if I can
wheedle some tech support out of Adobe... But even when it does work, there
are so many columns that we're down to something like four-point type, even
on landscape, legal size paper. So you're best off running IE and using the
custom drawing feature to select a subset of columns. (It works fine in IE
for Solaris, HP-UX, or Windows, although I haven't seen any sign of recent
security patches for those Unix (IE 5.0) versions.)
Enjoy,
