LOTR Easter Egg in OS X

[patgund]

Just found an interesting "Lord of the Rings" Easter Egg in Mac OS X. (Though it might have been done in the BSD kernel group.)

Open the terminal (Applications/Utilities)

type or paste in the following Unix command line:

cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.history | grep "LOTR"

Hit return

Have fun!

How did you find that?

Friend of mine told me it was in the calendar file, couldn't remember how to do it. Had to figure out the rest myself

OK, now I'm curious. Did you meet Patrick some other way, or through my (or anothers') journal? I think I first met Patrick back in 1984 or 1985.

If memory serves me correctly, I met Rosefox at the Poly SIG at ConJose in 2002. I think she was at the LJ SIG as well. I also used to post occasionally on alt.poly as well.

I don't even recall. I think he friended me and I friended him back. Or something.

Wow. :) I think I'm looking at Converging Degrees or something.
