Yes, I tried the arguments ? and /?, which do not result in any output at all. However, I am going to withdraw my request for help now, because I found out today that 7-zip (freeware) does what I need. The newest 7-zip for windows 10 on a 64 bit machine is fully compatable with the 20-year-old...
I'm trying Zipgenius because it has excellent reviews from many sources, and it is free.
The problem is, I can't find any documentation at all. In the program and on the official web site, the FAQ and Help links go to dead web addresses.
In particular, I would like to know the syntax to zip and...
Trueo:
"I like to work for companies that allow me to do what I want." In the United States That's the arrangement called contract work. It's your own decision what you do each day, when and how. Your obligation is to deliver a specific result by a specific date. When we call the plumber...
We have a second generation solar system, which means that much of the material came from the death of a previously-existing star. As stars gradually reach the end of their life, their chemical composition changes in the direction of the element that has the lowest amount of nuclear potential...
The intuition that once you stop the force the object will stop is an illusion produced
by the fact that we grow up in an environment where there is friction everywhere. When we stop pushing an object, it may only move a short distance before friction slows it down to a stop. But friction is...
The Tenth Congress of the Communist Party of the USSR (March of 1921) outlawed the factions that supported Marx's idea of direct control of the industries by the assemblies of workers. Instead of workers' self-management, they declared control of industry by the Communist Party, "for" the...
I remember this clearly from the televised February 2000 trial of four New York City police officers charged in the February 1999 shooting of Amadou Diallo. I watched the whole trial live on Court TV. When each of the police were on the witness stand, the lawyers asked them why they didn't stop...
Disregard my post of Sept. 23. It's clear now that I misinterpreted the original question. I thought post #1 was asking about a tactical belittling one's own claims, not the claims of anyone else, and so I said the term was "feigned modesty."
"Stupidest Statement by a Presidential Candidate - Ever" -- I think the winner would be Barry Goldwater's proposal in 1964 to use atomic bombs in Vietnam.
Reply to Pythagorean:
Do you know of some examples how groups can become separated into two different environments? Is it realistic to say water level changing to produce a new island, or a river changing its course? What else can do it?

Could it be that saltation...
As for all of the changes being gradual, thanks for correcting my misconceptions. I had visualized the mutations involved in evolution as occasionally being [I don't what word to use here] "categorical", forming definite branches on the taxonomic tree -- a warbler gets hit by a gamma ray and...
Thanks for replying. I probably chose a bad example because height is a continuous variable. Perhaps I should have selected an example of any either/or characteristic, such as a reptile with a three-chambered heart evolving into a bird with a 4-chambered heart, or the first time feathers...
Please explain something I don't understand about the evolution of animals that have sexual reproduction.
I thought that being a separate species means an animal will have sexual intercourse resulting in fertile offspring only if the partner is of the same species.
I shall cite the giraffe...
I would add these little details:
It is static friction, the kind of friction that exists when two surfaces are not sliding past one another.
It is a different mechanism from kinetic friction, the kind of friction that you have when sliding is taking place.
Static friction is produced...
