Notepad reversing or mirroring data
Tue, 2 Sep 2008 11:14:11 -0700
Hi,
I did an unknown misstroke on my keyboard, and Notepad did something exotic:
it made a strange reversal of the data. I was making a crude ASCII map, and
it reversed the map, but it kept all the words in the right order!
I can't find any hints on the command to do this. I'm guessing it is some

Source of Desktop wallpapers?
Fri, 29 Aug 2008 13:23:55 -0400
After a bit of research I've found that C:\windows\web\wallpapers should
be the location for wallpaper selection when you try to edit your
desktop. Per the registry entry for 'wallpaperdir'. But for the life
