Cancel all print jobs

Posted by Paulo on Monday, 29 March, 2010

Hey folks,

Is this still the best way to cancel *all* print job requests from a queue in Solaris?

cancel `lpstat <printer queue name>|awk ‘{print $1}’`

Sugestions welcome. :)

The Hook

Posted by Paulo on Wednesday, 24 March, 2010

I have already thought painting the sky
In shades of blue, to be original
Only then I noticed that it is already blue
There was someone who had the same idea

I do not know if I will run
Or the hook
There is nothing new here
Under the sun

I’ve been chased by alleys and narrow streets
Horror, dead ends
Until I lost myself without knowing
What color I paint my life

I do not know if I will run
Or the hook
There is nothing new here
Under the sun

I do not know if I will run
Or the hook
There is nothing new here
Under the sun

Wrong by Wrong

Posted by Paulo on Tuesday, 23 March, 2010

I’m now who you want me to be,
Have a job and a normal life.
But when I wake up I don’t know
Who I am, who I became
I don’t fell right.
Your right makes me fell so wrong!

Since I fit in your structure.
Since I do not offend your morals.
But when you impose your right upon me
I still feel it’s not enought.
Your right makes me fell so wrong,
Your right makes me fell so wrong!

I know you expect me not to disappoint,
And that I follow your ideal.
But I do not want to follow anyone
No matter how much you love me.
Your right makes me fell so wrong,
Your right makes me fell so wrong!

I know that I’ll turn inside out
If I tell you that I choose me.
No, I don’t really care
Even if you do me wrong.
Inside out I’ll tell you:
Your wrong makes me so right!
