Yes/no, that's been
nothing new to tech users for decades, but still, it was worth noting.
DISCLAIMER: If I have oopsied on which package ultimately installed
those documents, my apologies in advance. If someone would please then
specify the ultimately correct package name, that would be awesome.
Happy Debian'ing!

n maybe 15 years ago since I ever last encountered that. I
remember seeing it for something related to FAX, maybe. It seems safe
to a-sume there might be a similar feature you can toggle (click on
and off) if you can just track it down with respect to printer
software.
Good luck with that last l
ut as soon as I saw
"CUPS" (that I don't use), but your thought here triggered memory of
something I just learned while (still) battling wifi setup:
systemctl status cups.service
At least in my case, that also provides some instant feedback in
addition to the already mentioned logs.
Hope that helps someone somewhere some day. :)

ng the same, it sounds
like a possible solution.
This is that point where I made a disclaimer not too long ago. You
have to be careful about not declaring something in there twice, and
unfortunately I've now forgotten what that something was.. On second
thought, it might have been the gateway d
p trimming
things down by adding more characters (letters, numbers) until the
desired command is the only one left to be autocompleted.
With underscores, it recently crossed my reading path that once in a
great while hyphens and underscores are interchangeable. Haven't had a
situation come up to be able to test that one so it remains a
theoretical #toDo.

You know, you could always bring potential course offerings back here
to the list and see if anyone has a yay/nay opinion on lifetime value
towards what you seek. If you do so, keep in mind that being too
specific could accidentally be self-exposing if you're trying to
maintain anonymity for any reason.

feedback) after a "systemctl restart" terminal command line restart.
Again, this was all immediately after a fresh reboot where things
become reset.
Been a couple threads recently where my instance seemed to potentially
apply, as well, actually. Like maybe it's hinting at something more
universal involved beyond singular packages. I'm on Sid Unstable
(attempting a Stretch debootstrap in just a few).

hat difference in power supply *oomph* for some
reason, on top of everything else... and which makes (common) sense if
laptops start shutting down various things (e.g. dimming the screen)
to keep running as long as possible before a battery charge finally
totally gives out... :)

anyone have any insight into the yes/no advisability as to why you
would or would not do so? I'm trying to remember if I've had any

ooh, card... there's another one to add up above.
Anyway, having had that micro-SD card in hand inspired me to budget in
a second one to experiment with something just like it sounds like
you're attempting to do here and now..
Just thinking out loud. :)

going on. Are
those percentage sign "field codes" universal for all languages?
The other thing I thought about was maybe attempt placing them in a
super basic text editor and then reentering them to make sure there's
no invisible anythings being accidentally grabbed and processed. No,
