Re: Please simply answer this question and don't second guess my reason for asking it

This is an application development group and you are not

I'll tell you right off that I have no answer to your original
question. I will tell you that everyone who posts here does so
independently, and therefore any personality or character abstraction
derived from a set of posts in reply to a specific topic is
fundamentally flawed, and therefore has no business as thread
content. As you should notice, some responders merely answered your
question, whereas others chose to address your methods of obtaining
what you want.

For someone who has no time for an endless debate, you've certainly
done your share of endless debating. As I recall, you asked for an
answer with no non-answer content, which implies that you require no
politeness or respect in a response. Additionally, threads and their
associated posts belong to everyone; not the originator of the
thread. In other words, someone who answers your question after all
of this doesn't have to lose their self-respect because they answer
the question for everyone. I doubt that anyone here is sending you a
personal email with the answer, though.

From now on I recommend you control your inability to take criticism,
or at least hide it when asking for help. You display it painfully in
your responses because you just can't resist responding to every
little comment made about your posts. If you don't believe me, ask
yourself why you've gotten so many off-topic responses and why you
haven't taken the time to thank those who answered you. You seem more
concerned with your pride than you do with the question you asked.

If you insist on continuing to make a fool of yourself, keep defending
yourself by making sweeping statements about the users of this
newsgroup and the Linux development community as a whole. The users
here haven't acted as a group to address you or the newsgroup and not
many people here are foolish enough to think that that's the case. No
development community has endorsed or taken responsibility for any
post in this thread, to include mine. If you'd like to hear something
productive among all of the criticism, address this and any other
group with respect and let those individuals who insist on
disrespecting you and others do so aside in embarrassing isolation.
