Is it possible to have tabbed windows in Texmaker, currently it is a dropdownlist, and can open one windows at one time.
When having a number of files opened in Texmaker, at the top of editor pane, there is a drop down panel with the names of open documents in it. I prefer to have tabs of open documents at the top of editor pane, similar to Texstudio and Winedt. Is there a way that I can change this setting?
Configure mouse speed (not pointer acceleration!) Is there way to increase the mouse speed in KDE4? I don't want any pointer acceleration, it's just the mouse speed that I want to change.  Edit: Unfortunately, editing the xorg.conf is not an option for me, because I want the users to be able to configure the mouse speed themselves and it is company policy do deny users permission to change the xorg.conf. Shine a light into a superconductor A type-I superconductor can expel almost all magnetic flux (below some critical value $H_c$) from its interior when superconducting. Light as we know is an electromagnetic wave. So what would happen if we shine a light deep into a type-I superconductor? Suppose the magnetic field of the light is significantly lower than $H_c$.  And what about type-II superconductors? Motivating the ansatz for the infinitesimal translation operator Why does demand for stock rise when a company appears to have high future value? So a company decides to raise money by selling shares of its stock. The stock is offered at an initial price of their determination. The stock is then traded in a market where forces of supply and demand, as well as speculation, affect its price.  When a company performs well (or makes decisions that will likely increase the company's earnings in the future), more people want to buy that stock than do people wanting to sell it. This creates demand for that stock which causes its sell/bid prices rise. When a company performs poorly, the opposite occurs; more people want to sell the stock than want to buy. This creates a surplus that causes sell/bid prices to fall.  Understanding this, people speculate over company performance to determine the future behavior of a stock, and attempt to "buy low, sell high" or "borrow high, return low" in order to make a profit.  But my question is regarding the first part of that process. What is it about company performance that causes the perceived value of its stock to rise? This is especially perplexing since I would guess that most people don't exercise their voting rights, and many stocks don't pay dividends.  It's not like a shareholder has any direct financial gains from increased company earnings (speculative stock pricing notwithstanding).  What is the intrinsic value of the stock?  It seems to me that all participants in a stock market tacitly agree that stock price will have a direct correlation with company performance. So another way of asking the question is, would an opposite agreement hold? What financially (this isn't a question about logistics, communication, or feasibility) stops all participants in a market from agreeing to value a particular company's stock inversely with respect to the company's performance?  Since I feel like I can't quite nail down my question, another form of it would be, why is stock market behavior driven by company performance? In what occasion could the word “precious” be taken disapprovingly, or sarcastically? I understand that the word “precious” in the following quote of Maureen Dowd’s article “Heart of Darkness” (NYT, March 20) literally means “2. valuable or important and not to be wasted” as defined in OALD:     Congressman Jones read an e-mail from a former boss of General   Allen’s, giving the congressman this unvarnished assessment:   “Attempting to find a true military and political answer to the   problems in Afghanistan would take decades. Would drain our nation of   precious resources, with the most precious being our sons and daughters. Simply put, the United States cannot solve the Afghan   problem, no matter how brave and determined our troops are.   But I didn’t know “precious” has another meaning as defined in OALD: 5. (disapproving, people and their behavior) very formal, exaggerated and not natural, and Readers English Dictionary: 2.(colloquial) terrible, almost worthless, until I was told by my respected forum mate a few days ago.   Being encouraged by his suggestion for me to “ask another question if I’m not sure of what he means by describing his input as “precious” is actually rather “precious” phrasing, I would like to ask:   What is an example of “precious” being used as “disapproving” or sarcastic way (as neither OALD nor CALD provides examples)? Is there an easy way to discern the instance “precious” being used as “disapproving” from the case being used in the sense of genuine “great value” as used in the above quote other than judging from the context? How do I capture the moon and its surrounding context? I wanted to photograph the full moon against a beautiful deep blue sky. I ended up with blown-out highlights of the moon:    So I switched to spot metering and captured the moon, losing the blue sky in the process:    I want a single photo that shows both the moon and the surrounding context (in this case, the blue sky). Doing an exposure fusion in Photomatix Essentials did not help:    Nor did HDR fusion (again in Photomatix):    Notice that the detail in the moon was lost in both cases, and the sky was also messed up in both cases: exposure fusion lost the beautiful blue color, while HDR created more texture than was actually present in the sky. I toggled Photomatix's option to remove ghosts, but that didn't help, either.  How do I photograph the moon together with its surrounding context (in this case, the blue sky, but in other cases, a tree, buildings, etc) without blowing highlights or shadows? I'm using a Sony NEX-5R, with the longest focal length lens I have, and with manual focus when needed.  Thinking I should fuse the photos manually, I tried opening the images as layers in Acorn, with the darker photo on top and with opacity set to 50%, and tried all 15 - 20 blending modes (normal, dodge, lighter, darker, multiply and so on), but none of them seemed to work. I'm afraid I don't know enough to use layers effectively. What blending mode and opacity and order of layers should I use for this task?  I don't have Photoshop, but do have Lightroom 5, Acorn and Nik Collection.  (In case you are about to recommend software, please note my requirements: I use a Mac, I would be willing to pay $20-30, and I don't want to use command-line software.) I tried for a while to classifiy the singularities of $\frac{1}{z}-\frac{1}{\sin z}$ at the origin, but I am stucked. Is there someone who is able to help me at this point? What's the difference between X = X++; vs X++;? Have you ever tried this before?  static void Main(string[] args) {     int x = 10;     x = x++;     Console.WriteLine(x); }   Output: 10.  but for   static void Main(string[] args) {     int x = 10;     x++;     Console.WriteLine(x); }   Output: 11.  Could anyone explain why this? Sometimes I use, $PROJECT_HOME/* to delete all files in the project. When the environment variable, PROJECT_HOME is not set (because I did su and the new user doesn't have this environment variable set), it starts deleting all files from the root folder. This is apocalyptic.  How can I configure bash to throw error, when I use an undefined environment variable in the shell? If $f$ is measurable and $fg$ is in $L^1$ for all $g \in L^q$, must $f \in L^p$? Let $f$ be a measurable function on a measure space $X$ and suppose that $fg \in L^1$ for all $g\in L^q$. Must $f$ be in $L^p$, for $p$ the conjugate of $q$? If we assume that $\|fg\|_1 \leq C\|g\|_q$ for some constant $C$, this follows from the Riesz Representation theorem. But what if we aren't given that such a $C$ exists? Google Maps Location History is showing an incorrect location I have a major problem that I hope someone can help with. On my Google Maps feature under my Location History it shows a location that I was never at at any point, but when my wife happened to see that location she doesn't believe me that the GPS could be wrong and pinpoint that location if I was never there.  I was first wondering myself how could that could be possible if I was never there or my phone was never at that location that was 35 miles away from me and second is there any way I could prove the GPS being wrong? Can I contact Google Maps and can they give an official printout of that certain day and every location I was? I really need to prove my honesty to her and hope there is a way. I have a Fujitsu laptop and all was working fine until I ended teamviewer. On the keyboard it has a numberpad on some of the letters which you press the Fn button to use. The system is acting like I have the Fn key pressed and I get numbers shown when it should be letters. If I press the Fn key the numbers go to letters. The Fn key is not stuck down. Is there a way to reset keyboard settings or a known fix. The operating system is Ubuntu 11.04 Natty. I'd really like to learn how to play pen-and-paper RPGs.  I know that it takes a few players to actually sit down and play, but I'm not at all sure where to find more gamers.  How do I find existing groups to join? Or, are there any resources online that may help me find existing RPG groups or players? How can I get grub2 to boot a different option only on the next boot? Got a bunch of .mp4 videos (info shows H.264 Video + AAC Audio) that are chapters of a larger video.  I'd like to merge them, but not sure which is the best way.  I don't have Quicktime Pro, but I'll get it if that's the best way to do this.  Edit: Just to clariify this is Mac OSX 10.6 I'm on. Alias and functions From the bash manual     The rules concerning the definition and use of aliases are somewhat   confusing. Bash always reads at least one complete line of input   before executing any of the commands on that line. Aliases are   expanded when a command is read, not when it is executed. Therefore,   an alias definition appearing on the same line as another command does   not take effect until the next line of input is read. The commands   following the alias definition on that line are not affected by the   new alias. This behavior is also an issue when functions are executed.   Aliases are expanded when a function definition is read, not when the function is executed, because a function definition is itself a   compound command. As a consequence,   aliases defined in a function are not available until after that function is executed. To be safe, always put alias definitions on a   separate line, and do not use alias in compound commands.   The two sentences "Aliases are expanded when a function definition is read, not when the function is executed" and "aliases defined in a function are not available until after that function is executed" seem to be contrary to each other.  Can you explain what they mean respectively? Disk space not freed up after deleting files and emptying Trash Graphics file extensions and their order of inclusion when not specified When using 's \includegraphics you can specify the file extension or not. For generic use and perhaps portability, extensions are commonly dropped. The types of "approved" inclusions and their order of precedence depends on the driver/compiler being used. What are these driver-defaults?  Related: Are there fewer positive integers than all integers? In our 6th grade math class we got introduced to the concept of integers. With all the talk about positive and negative, it got me wondering. Is the amount of elements in $\mathbb{Z^+}$ less than the amount of elements in $\mathbb{Z}$?  Here is how I thought of it. If we have $\mathbb{Z^+}$ and add one element to the "back" of it ($\mathbb{Z}^{\geq-1}$) there are certainly more elements in that new set, so there must be more elements in $\mathbb{Z}$ than in $\mathbb{Z}^+$ but on the other side if we try to express the amount of elements in them "numerically" (In a loose sense of the word) they both have $\infty$ elements.    So what is the right answer? Is there even one?  (Please note I am a bit of a layman when it comes to mathematics)  Edit: About the possible duplicate, I am not looking for a bijection between the two sets, I am looking for if they even have the same number of elements and why a bijection shows that they do/don't How do I view all available HDD's/partitions?
