X Posted Apr 11, 2008 23:16 UTC (Fri) by giraffedata (subscriber, #1954) [Link] "allowing a local attacker to hijack X programs"Doesn't work. It works for me. What's the problem? "allowing a local attacker to hijack The X Window System programs"Doesn't work either. You have to drop the "The" to make it fit the sentence, but otherwise it works fine.
X Posted Apr 15, 2008 6:20 UTC (Tue) by bronson (subscriber, #4806) [Link] "hijack ten programs?" "hijack X programs, where X is an integer from 4 to 30 inclusive?" Calling something just plain "X" is usually too ambiguous. The phrase "X Window System programs" is just tedious. It's like saying "Do you have Band Aid Brand adhesive strips?" Nobody uses that sort of language unless they're forced to. What is your motivation? Are you trying to get people to change how they refer to the Windowing System Known as X?
