Scratch that, let's just say I hate Oracle and have done with it. [Mar. 21st, 2009|03:26 pm]

SQL Developer makes no sense.

Why would you send the results to different places when it's script output, as opposed to a single instruction?

...Is it even possible to get script output sent to a grid?

...And why am I unable to have scripts in two tabs in the same section? I don't want them side-by-side! I don't have enough screen real estate for that!

I want my MSSQL environment back. :'(. Unfortunately, I doubt it has any real ability to deal with Oracle commands.

*Mm is hanging out at EGG
*Andrew H is writing a bash script: (Note, this is psuedocode, I'm out of practice with bash)
if $1 exists then
    if $2 exists then
        if $3 exists then
            do stuff
        else exit
    else exit
else exit
*Mm looks over his shoulder
Mm: Case statement!
Andrew: Fine...
*Andrew goes to Google
*Next time I look over his shoulder, he is reading a page helpfully entitled "How to write a shell script".
Andrew: I never knew you could do that!
*Andrew points to the code snippet on the page saying
    if [ $# -ne 3 ]; then
         echo 1>&2 Usage: $0 19 Oct 91
         exit 127
    fi
Instead of checking each individually, I can just check the number of arguments!
Mm: Sigh...


...Did I mention that this was the guy whose first program included 3000 if statements, because he didn't know what a loop statement was at the time?
