Your concern over whether or not I care about a couple of characters is weird: I observed that the sed expression worked both with and without /P2/q on my system; that's it. I was curious about something and wanted to share what I found.

The answer credits others while solving a problem that wasn't optimally solved by other (helpful) answers at the time. I shared to help others. It is up to a reader to select answers and review for appropriateness to their needs. This almost looks like an attack when all that was required was an alternative answer standing on its own merits or demerits.

Please gentlemen, do not argue! I think we have to bear in mind that words sometimes can be deceitful and that is why we have to be very careful when using them in order to avoid misinterpretations. Thank you maljo for being such a gentleman! And you, eddiemel7778, is it alright if I ask you to choose a little better your words in order not to sound so "aggressive"?

I stand by what I said and I do not believe it is off-topic. Nevertheless, I realize it is your forum and if you want to silence and exclude people because something we say does not fit in your worldview, then I am certainly willing to accept this and remove myself from the forum. In the big picture, I will not be shut up or bullied and I think you owe me an apology as nothing I have said or done warrants your actions.

I hope this doesn't seem too much like a content-free +1, but

Formalize your Pull Request etiquette.

I hope you all will forgive my intrusion as a non-maintainer. Here's a perspective as a user:

No need for "me too"s. Please add a thumbs up on the original issue if you want to do that.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Rude, dismissive or diminishing comments are NOT ALLOWED and will be removed. If you cannot treat everyone with kindness and respect, this is not the place for you. Please see http://conduct.rahdo.com​ for more. Thank you!

READ the EDIT on the OP before making snide comments. Also, if you get “like a hundred of these a day” maybe somebody should clearly, I said CLEARLY, label the subreddit as employees only. This vitriol for accidentally wandering into a subreddit that would, to most thinking people, appear to be for customers AND employees to discuss the store is ridiculous.BTW, I’ll take everything I’ve said back and apologize and even make a post calling myself an illiterate imbecile if somebody can point me to where it CLEARLY says “employees only” in either the sidebar, subreddit rules, or the post list. The sticky doesn’t count, it is not worded clearly, it just reads as if you don’t want complaints, not “no customers”.

· It's short. You have enough time to play it through and then ask for refund. Reason for not doing so: I beg you not.

But, I am a little bit confused about what to do now, mark your answer as correct and create new question, or create and EDIT block to this post?

Please don't copy answers to multiple questions; this is the same as your answer to a similar question

Apologies for being "that person", but are there any updates on this topic or guidance in the meantime?

I've also deleted your comment as the remainder of it is the opposite of a constructive discussion.

We would very much appreciate if you could refrain from expressing sarcasm and annoyance.

I used to be a staunch defender of proper reply styles, even for casual emails. Insert your replies below the relevant paragraph and trim the exchange to be just about the matters of discussion.

Before posting your question to a discussion board, check if anyone has asked it already and received a reply. Just as you wouldn’t repeat a topic of discussion right after it happened in real life, don’t do that in discussion boards either.

One thing that irritates me more than anything is the expectation people have to other people’s time, specifically open source project maintainers. They are not your tech support. They built a product you are using for free. You’re welcome.
