Chapter 34. Gotchas

 

Turandot: Gli enigmi sono tre, la morte una!

Caleph: No, no! Gli enigmi sono tre, una la vita!

--Puccini

Here are some (non-recommended!) scripting practices that will bring excitement into an otherwise dull life.

 

Danger is near thee --

Beware, beware, beware, beware.

Many brave hearts are asleep in the deep.

So beware --

Beware.

--A.J. Lamb and H.W. Petrie

Setting the suid permission on the script itself has no effect in Linux and most other UNIX flavors.
