Create a TM project. Cmd-Shift-F to search within the current project. Turn regex on and Ignore Case off. Regex: <input.*[A-Z] Could be fine-tuned but that should get you close enough. ./s On Oct 6, 2008, at 5:53 PM, J.

I have a folder of HTML files where my HTML input boxes are structured like: <input type="text" name=ALL_CAPS" id="ALL_CAPS> Would there be a way to search this folder for all UPPERCASE only and output them? I have a bunch of fields and I need to set them all to null in a PHP session and assign them all but going through each file and manually getting would take a ton of time. If outputed I could just copy and paste and not have *as much* manual work. Get what i am saying? I hope that I am making sense. -Jason J.

However, the gpsbabel team has had to program around some weird situations with non-conforming GPS units. One of the most problematic has been the inexpensive Venture HC. Its USB apparently works very differently from other units. Workarounds in gpsbabel that are present in the code to get other units working will crash a Mac hard when a Venture is plugged in. I hear they're on the brink of getting that fixed, but my general advice to Mac users who want to do anything beyond the basics with desktop GPS software (such as photo geocoding, geocache databasing, etc.) is *don't buy a Venture* (not that you were asking about the Venture - just getting the word out). All other units I've tested have worked fine. ./s -- >>> Birdhouse Hosting <<< Custom web and mail hosting services http://hosting.birdhouse.o Hacker Scot 2008-10-04T16:33:59 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.macosx.general/57864 I've used the firmware and map update software. It was pretty straightforward, thought you have to go through some hoops to load map updates. You buy the update (or get a code for the free update after purchasing) and receive a link to download the huge update. That link expires after a few weeks. Run the update and enter the update code that is paired with your GPS and the update. The update runs and you're good. I haven't tried any other software yet (I think there's some for loading routes and destinations), but if there's something in mind I can bring it up. We got a Nuvi 250w and it's been great. It had the maps we'd need, I've never been impressed with the road name speech tech, and I've heard that the road conditions by radio aren't that reliable. GPSPassion has a review of a variety of Mac software, there's a lot of other good stuff regarding the nuvi line there as well. http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=107981 There's also a potential logging hack that I didn't get a c fracai 2008-10-04T11:54:31 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.macosx.general/57863 I'm looking for opinions on this before investing in a Nuvi thanks scott Scott Anguish 2008-10-04T10:20:45 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.macosx.general/57862 I really object to MAC address filtering being considered, or trumpeted, as 'security'; it is in that vein that I was replying. "Security by obscurity" (not broadcasting SSID) is NOT security. "Security by inconvenience" (MAC address filtering) is also not security. Calling MAC address filtering a "security measure" is a disservice to anyone stumbling across this thread who might believe you. You don't need MAC address filtering to do that. My WIFi router keeps track of MACs that connect and allows you to set fixed IPs to those MAC addresses. This is quiet useful, but it has nothing to do with security. If you want to have MAC address filtering to keep your employees in line and have cause to fire them if they are using unauthorized devices, that's fine. But it still has nothing to do with security. Want to know what the most security conscious solution is? A public wifi that sits above your VPN and has no other access to anything except port 80 outbound. Why?

Security means having a strong encryption method (WPA2) and a strong password. No amount of MAC filtering will increase that security. MAC address filtering is always superfluous. The more sensitive your network is and the more important the data is on it, the more superfluous MAC filtering is. LuKreme 2008-10-03T05:29:21 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.macosx.general/57859 But it doesn't even stop those people. You already have your WPA password to stop THOSE people. Adding MAC address filters to that is just stupid. LuKreme 2008-10-03T05:23:23 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.macosx.general/57858 I can think of more one instance. 1) A company does not permit personal equipment on their network. It's a bit harder to enforce if WPA passwords are in use, since you just have to type it in. * 2) I run a small business and have a WiFi router by... say Linksys. It supports WPA2 and MAC filtering, and I don't really have a budget for much more. If I did MAC filtering and let an employee go, I could remove his MAC, thereby potentially inconveniencing the IT guy and the former employee. If I used only WPA instead of only MAC filtering, I could change the password, thereby inconveniencing every employee. * 3) MAC filtering is already used on the physical LAN at the DHCP server level, or is enforced via some super expensive NAC product. * Notice I put an asterisk next to each of those examples. Yes, in EACH of those cases, you might potentially sniff out a valid MAC and spoof your WiFi card's address to get past this. That's you. MOST people will not and can not.

I'd rather have someone turned away at the MAC level then have them try to guess a password X number of times (obviously if they automate that then they can get past the MAC restriction). I don't think ANYONE has advocated that you ONLY do the MAC thing. Only that it can help with the riffraff and Joe Common type of people to have it in addition.

Can you tell me one thing a MAC address gives you that a WPA wouldn't, and why you would use only a MAC address then? Randal L.

But you'd think if that was the case, they'd have the installation process check for incompatibility, or for updates, or at least a sheet of paper in the box that told you to check online.

Your super strong WPA2 password would qualify as equally annoying I suspect. :) But to me, it sounds like an acceptable solution. Scott G. Lewis 2008-10-02T21:00:57 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.macosx.general/57847 This is true, anyone who can sniff the traffic can find out the MAC and spoof it. But again, as an EXTRA (not the sole) form of security, it's effective. A) Most people don't sniff wireless traffic. B) Most people who merely want to see if there are any open, freely available Hotspots don't sniff traffic even if they know how. C) Anyone who maliciously wants to get on your network will get based this one form and move on to dealing with the others. You state that filtering MAC addresses is worse, which is just not true. It's certainly worse as the SOLE method of security as compared to say WPA2, if you can only pick one method and have an off the shelf router without advanced authentication support like the Aeronet devices. But as *A* layer I can't see how having it is worse than not having it. If somebody sniffs out a valid MAC and joins the network with a spoofed address, it's not helping them defeat any other layers.
