Some components of Multics and UNIX, and applications running on them, used suffixes, in some cases, to indicate file types, but they did not use them as much — for example, executables and ordinary text files had no suffixes in their names.

From two to three pounds of seed are sown upon the acre ( 2 to 3 kg / hectare ), though the smallest of these quantities will give many more plants in ordinary seasons than are necessary ; but as the seed is not an expensive article the greater part of farmers incline to sow thick, which both provides against the danger of part of the seed perishing, and gives the young plants an advantage at the outset.

" Replacing it with " more ordinary analyses ," he noted that the best dowser was on average 4 millimeters out of 10 meters closer to a mid-line guess, an advantage of 0. 0004 %, and that the five other " good " dowsers were on average farther than a mid-line guess.

Lydus had the advantage in credibility, even though late ( 6th century AD ), of stating that he read the part of the Etrusca Disciplina about Tages and that it was a dialogue with Tarchon's lines in " the ordinary language of the Italians " and Tages ' lines in Etruscan, which was difficult for him to read.

It sets a long-standing trend of a criminal not punished for his crime ; this is the first Hollywood film where that happened ... The Edward G.

where we have taken advantage of the first covariant derivative of a function being the same as ordinary derivative.

The advantage of a yaodong over an ordinary house is that it needs little heating in winter and no cooling at all in summer.

Pathogens have the advantage that many can be produced in artificial culture in large quantities and be used with ordinary spraying equipment.

The boarding school has the advantage of preserving the child's all-important home ties, even if in slightly attenuated form, and, since it forms part of the ordinary social pattern of most Western communities today, the child who goes to boarding-school will not feel different from other children.

These have the advantage that they free up ceiling space that an ordinary opener and rail would occupy.

Compared to ordinary file transfer protocols ( e. g. FTP ), a major advantage using OPeNDAP is the ability to retrieve subsets of files, and also the ability to aggregate data from several files in one transfer operation.

' It has, in the first place, the great advantage of lightness and handiness, while its single blade, to some extent, combines the step-cutting qualities possessed by the two cutters of the ordinary double-headed axe, though the latter instrument is on the whole decidedly superior.

However this should not be surprising because it was expected that Qasim would take advantage of growing Arab nationalism and a sense amongst many ordinary Iraqis that they were being exploited by the west.

ezmlm takes advantage of the features of qmail to enable ordinary users to create and to manage mailing lists, without need for superuser privileges.

By dipping ordinary tomatoes into vats of toxic waste and then placing them into the chamber, Gangreen uses music to his advantage, as the juke box that is hooked up to the chamber syncs up with the tomato transformation chamber, allowing him to create virtually anything by the use of whatever song he has picked ( Michael Jackson music seems to make tomatoes into a clone of Jackson, the Miami Vice theme seems to make replicas of Don Johnson and seductive music apparently turns tomatoes into beautiful women ).

Raymond Williams argues that there is no unique and or individual aesthetic object which can be extrapolated from the art world, but that there is a continuum of cultural forms and experience of which ordinary speech and experiences may signal as art.

Thus if the instrument depends on the pressure or suction effect alone, and this pressure or suction is measured against the air pressure in an ordinary room, in which the doors and windows are carefully closed and a newspaper is then burnt up the chimney, an effect may be produced equal to a wind of 10 mi / h ( 16 km / h ); and the opening of a window in rough weather, or the opening of a door, may entirely alter the registration.
