Using the Mac terminal whenever I hit enter, regardless of shell it outputs the line with square brackets. The issue doesn't occur in iTerm2.   Dan@Mac ~                                                            [10:32:55]  [&gt; $                                                                            ]  Dan@Mac ~                                                            [10:36:11]  [&gt; $                                                                            ]  Dan@Mac ~                                                            [10:36:11]  &gt; $        So above is what there term looks like, input goes at > $ however on enter it shows with [> $.  Any advice appreciated, let me know if you need any other details.   edit: To clarify as this was marked duplicate of another thread which asks the functionality/purpose of mark, when posting this I did not know what mark was or that it existed.
Since upgrading to OS X El Capitan, I've noticed a change in the Terminal: Executed lines show an opening bracket on the left, and a closing bracket on the right, as shown in this screenshot:    Similar questions have been asked here:          Some of the questions are referring to these brackets as marks, and the Terminal's Edit menu has a couple of entries related to marks, for example:   Edit > Marks > Mark as Prompt and Send Return Edit > Clear to Previous Mark Edit > Navigate > Jump to Previous Mark     Is there a summary of what these marks can be used for? I have not seen any reference to this new feature in any of the El Capitan feature overviews.
the structure "like for somebody to do something" Say person A and person B are having a discussion/argument.   Person A tells person B that his views are arrogant, or closed-minded, or some other derogatory adjective. But in fact it is person A's views that are arrogant, closed-minded, etc. Person B's views are usually the exact opposite of what person A is accusing him of.  This sort of situation happens a lot when discussing politics or religion, for example.  What do you call person A, for calling person B something that he himself is?  I guess, for the most part, person A doesn't actually realize that he is the one that the adjective applies to, and not person B. Maybe there is a different name if person A knows the adjective also applies to him. Same Video on each face, but with different time delay? iam looking for a way to - like the title says - i want to put the same video on each face, but with different time delay.  In other words, i want to create a kind  of videowall.  i found :  #---------------------------------------------------------- # File multi_material.py #---------------------------------------------------------- import bpy  def run(origin):     # Create three materials     red = bpy.data.materials.new('Red')     red.diffuse_color = (1,0,0)     blue = bpy.data.materials.new('Blue')     blue.diffuse_color = (0,0,1)     yellow = bpy.data.materials.new('Yellow')     yellow.diffuse_color = (1,1,0)      # Create mesh and assign materials     bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_uv_sphere_add(         segments = 16,         ring_count = 8,          location=origin)     ob = bpy.context.object     ob.name = 'MultiMatSphere'     me = ob.data     me.materials.append(red)     me.materials.append(blue)     me.materials.append(yellow)      # Assign materials to faces     for f in me.faces:         f.material_index = f.index % 3      # Set left half of sphere smooth, right half flat shading     for f in me.faces:         f.use_smooth = (f.center[0] &lt; 0)  if __name__ == "__main__":     run((0,0,0))   But it didn't really work out for me, it creates a red sphere and sends      Traceback (most recent call last):   File "\Text", line 36, in      File "\Text", line 28, in run AttributeError: 'Mesh' object   has no attribute 'faces' Error: Python script fail, look in the   console for now...   to the console. Also i didn't know how i could add the delay in there.  Hope you can help me out with this! :) How do I close a connection early? I'm attempting to do an AJAX call (via JQuery) that will initiate a fairly long process. I'd like the script to simply send a response indicating that the process has started, but JQuery won't return the response until the PHP script is done running.  I've tried this with a "close" header (below), and also with output buffering; neither seems to work. Any guesses? or is this something I need to do in JQuery?  &lt;?php  echo( "We'll email you as soon as this is done." );  header( "Connection: Close" );  // do some stuff that will take a while  mail( 'dude@thatplace.com', "okay I'm done", 'Yup, all done.' );  ?&gt; Suppose you have 2 circles that intersect each other in such a way that each circle passes through the other's center. What is the area between the circle(or common area) i.e. area between the centres of the circles? Is "tri-quarterly" a real English word meaning 3 times a year? Are there any other words that mean 3 times a year? Verify the identity: $\tan^{-1} x +\tan^{-1} (1/x) = \pi /2$ Verify the identity: $\tan^{-1} x + \tan^{-1} (1/x) = \frac\pi 2, x &gt; 0$  $$\alpha= \tan^{-1} x$$  $$\beta = \tan^{-1} (1/x)$$  $$\tan \alpha = x$$  $$\tan \beta = 1/x$$  $$\tan^{-1}[\tan(\alpha + \beta)]$$  $$\tan^{-1}\left [{\tan\alpha + \tan\beta\over 1 - \tan\alpha \tan\beta} \right]$$  $$\tan^{-1}\left[ {x + 1/x\over 1- x/x }\right]$$  $$\tan^{-1}\left[{x + (1/x)\over 0} \right]$$  I can't find out what I'm doing wrong.. How do I know when to use "the" versus "a" versus "∅" as an article on a noun? With proper nouns, we don't use the except for river names, newspaper names, etc.  I want to know why we use the with White House. I mean, under which rule can we categorize it? What could other similar examples for that rule be? Why is $\mathbb{E}[X] = 1 + \sum^\infty_{k=1}\mathbb{P}(X > k)$ true? I'm working through a problem regarding expected values in Markov chains, and at some point it says:     Recall from probability that if $X$ is a positive integer valued random variable, then $\mathbb{E}[X] = 1 + \sum^\infty_{k=1}\mathbb{P}(X &gt; k)$.   I know that by definition $\mathbb{E}[X] = \sum_a a\mathbb{P}(X = a)$, but I can't see how the above equality follows from this, nor am I sure if this is how to approach the problem. Possessive form for a surname ending with "z" What is the proper possessive form for a surname that ends with “z”? Is it z’ or z’s? How can I force a long string without any blank to be wrapped? I have a long string (a DNA sequence). It does not contain any whitespace character.  For example:  ACTGATCGAGCTGAAGCGCAGTGCGATGCTTCGATGATGCTGACGATGCTACGATGCGAGCATCTACGATCAGTCGATGTAGCTAGTAGCATGTAGTGA   What would be the CSS selector to force this text to be wrapped in a html:textarea or in a xul:textbox? I've downloaded the daily Ubuntu 12.04 iso.  I currently have windows 7 x64 operating system installed.  How can I make a bootable usb from the Ubuntu iso? Why does James Bond use his real name? In the James Bond universe most characters go by a code name M, Q, the various 00s, In Skyfall Silva is a made up name.  Others such as Tanner, Robinson and Moneypenny, Trevelyan we're not so sure but we've got no reason to believe they're real.  However Bond uses his own name - we've even seen the grave of his parents to confirm this.  Why does Bond use his real name and (as far as we know) no one else does? How to grep a specific line _and_ the first line of a file? There seems to be something wrong with the sorting of Stack Exchange sites by name:    elementary OS and Русский язык appear in the wrong place at the end of the list. I read an interesting question here in the forum () and came up with the following doubt: even though its diffraction angle is too small to be detected, if we had the possibility to detect it, what would the diffraction of a soccer ball through a pair of posts look like? I mean, in the case of electrons, there is a screen in which the diffraction pattern can be appreciated. But what about this case? Would we see lots of soccer balls in different places or what? Check if file is already open Related to Meta Super User efforts:  and Meta Server Fault efforts:  We already auto-remove negatively voted unanswered old questions automatically after 30 days, network wide, with no human intervention required.

Can anyone please help me with this proof? Why can't an electric field line suddenly break? My book has the following question in it as an exercise:  An electrostatic field line is a continuous curve i.e. a field line cannot have sudden breaks. Why not?  I cannot seem to be able to reason for or against this statement.  Can somebody please tell me why they can't suddenly break and if that were to happen then what will be its outcome?
