This question appears to be off-topic because it is about a particular person's thought process and not any specific *nix issue.terdon– terdon ♦2014-10-25 13:08:45 +00:00Commented Oct 25, 2014 at 13:08

@Anthon why does this have to be about Linux? Why approve an edit that brings in someone's opinion as though it were OP's?muru– muru2014-12-12 12:12:46 +00:00Commented Dec 12, 2014 at 12:12

@muru I found this an improvement, luckily it takes more than one person to approve a suggested edit. But I have to admit I missed that the question was already closed, otherwise I might not have left it Linux, Unix, I don't care to much, otherwise we need BSD etc in the title of the site as well.Anthon– Anthon2014-12-12 12:21:19 +00:00Commented Dec 12, 2014 at 12:21

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
