Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    I know that, the HOTKEY_* part of it was a mystery, why is the key hot... I mean, why does HK have to stand in front of it, it could be simple like just LM, CU, U (Users... still does nothing and nothing in it gets transfered as a setting in new user accounts), CR, etc.

    It's HKEY (handle to key), not HOTKEY. That's what I was trying to say in my comment. There's no "HOTKEY".

    Huh... I don't know where I've read this a long time ago, but I could swear it was HOTKEY, not HKEY... your explanation does make sense though, while what I thought never did make sense.
