Is there anyway to find and remove ligatures from tex file? Sometimes when I copy/paste a text to Winedt, it shows perfect, but when I compile it to Pdf, some issues appear, e.g. finding becomes nding.  I am wondering if there is any way to search and find these characters?  Here is an example file (needs utf8 encoding).  \documentclass{article} \begin{document} ﬁ \end{document}
How do you make Ubuntu accept files sent over bluetooth Possible Duplicate:          As answered in  I want to use git diff --color=always filename | less -r to get a colored output of my git diffs. Since I use this a lot it would be nice to set up an alias for this. But how to include the filename in this command?  I tried the following without success:  alias gdiff='git diff --color=always $1 | less -r'   Typing gdiff example.php displays the content of example.php with less but ignores the diff part.  Any ideas? When compiling a tex file including references (by Texstudio editor and Miktex distribution) using biblatex with bibtex backend and ieee style, the results of the displayed references in the output pdf is messed up at the "volume" and "issue number" entries as follows:   The volume label "vol." is missing (Ref. 1 &amp; 2 in the given example below). The numeric issue number "3" is missing (Ref. 1 in the given example). The issue number label "no." is displayed although NO input entry was being given (Ref. 2 in the given example).   If it helps, this behavior was noticed after the recent update of Miktex on March 11, 2017, including  package (ver. 1.2a 2017-03-02). As before which, everything was going fine!  So is this issue noticed by someone else? Is there any idea about the reason of such strange act by biblatex?  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents}{reference.bib}     @article{author1,         author  = "George Green",         title   = "Basic latex",         year    = "2000",         journal = "Sharelatex Journal",         volume  = "10",         number  = "3",         pages   = "100--101"     }     @article{author2,         author  = "Carol White",         title   = "Basic studio",         year    = "2010",         journal = "Club Journal",         volume  = "20",         pages   = "200--201"     } \end{filecontents} \usepackage[backend=bibtex, style=ieee]{biblatex}  \addbibresource{reference.bib} \begin{document}     Hi there! \\     Ref 1 Green \cite{author1}. \\     Ref 2 White \cite{author2}.     \printbibliography  \end{document}   The output is as follows: I saw this question  but it doesn't have a full solution.

It seems from reading the other post that my register is incorrect for some reason. I can't get the &lt;NL&gt;. I think that's the issue since pasting won't work... Change installed AppleScript version $-1$ is a quadratic residue modulo $p$ if and only if $p\equiv 1\pmod{4}$ I came across this problem and I believe Lagrange's theorem is the key to its solution.  The question is:     Let $p$ be an odd prime. Prove that there is some integer $x$ such that $x^2 \equiv −1 \pmod p$ if and only if $p \equiv 1 \pmod 4$.   I appreciate any help.  Thanks. Quantum entanglement faster than speed of light? recently i was watching a  on quantum computing where the narrators describes that quantum entanglement information travels faster than light!  Is it really possible for anything to move faster than light? Or are the narrators just wrong?  Regards, When rolling percentages, do 1d100 and two d10s (percentiles) share the same probabilities? I know d100s are shunned because they take too much time to roll, and 1d10+1percentile is really fun, but do they share the same probabilities? Is it better to use a (digital) d100?  Also, do d100s have 0? You can't roll a 0 with percentiles, I think. Receiving commandline input while listening for connections in Python The arithmetic - geometric mean inequality states that $$\frac{x_1+ \ldots + x_n}{n} \geq \sqrt[n]{x_1 \cdots x_n}$$ I'm looking for some original proofs of this inequality. I can find the usual proofs on the internet but I was wondering if someone knew a proof that is unexpected in some way. e.g. can you link the theorem to some famous theorem, can you find a non-trivial geometric proof (I can find some of those), proofs that use theory that doesn't link to this inequality at first sight (e.g. differential equations …)?  Induction, backward induction, use of Jensen inequality, swapping terms, use of Lagrange multiplier, proof using thermodynamics (yeah, I know, it's rather some physical argument that this theorem might be true, not really a proof), convexity, … are some of the proofs I know. This question is about why we have a universal speed limit (the speed of light in vacuum). Is there a more fundamental law that tells us why this is? I'm not asking why the speed limit is equal to $c$ and not something else, but why there is a limit at all. EDIT: Answers like &quot;if it was not..&quot; and answers explaining the consequences of having or not having a speed limit are not--in my opinion-- giving an answer to whether there is a more fundamental way to derive it from a law to explain this limit. In the book I'm reading at the moment () it says that if you don't declare a default constructor for a class, the compiler supplies one for you, which "zeroes out each data member". I've experimented with this, and I'm not seeing any zeroing -out behaviour. I also can't find anything that mentions this on Google. Is this just an error or a quirk of a specific compiler? Modifying cat command to number paragraphs and display last paragraph only I have a text file for which I need to do three things:   Modify the "cat" command to highlight keywords whilst showing the complete contents of the file.  Modify the "cat" command to automatically number the paragraphs. These are separated by a single blank line.  Modify the "cat" command to display the final paragraph only.    The tricky part is that all of these need to be done by modifying the cat command.   I've seen many forum posts explaining that cat is not meant for this - and I can entirely see why. However, the challenge is that I have to use cat! I am looking for help to point me out at a very old novel (likely from the '60s) about two empires at interstellar war. When it comes to starships, one is technologically very advanced, and the other has very low and inefficient technology.  The highly advanced empire has apparently strong chances to win the war, in particular considering a new technology they were developing. I remember the technology to work like this: consider the space as a flat surface, and on this surface, a disk around the spaceship. When the technology was turned on, this disk was stretched out, as made of rubber, so that it produced a cone, with the tip being the spaceship. The spaceship was therefore teleported 10 parsec away (if I remember correctly), but retained all the connections to the original position. If the spaceship moved, the cone moved as well. This allowed to move in position among enemy ships completely unnoticed, by stretching while afar, then moving in the proper position 10 parsecs away, then destretching.  Despite this technology, the empire lost the war because of delays. It's a perfect example of how having a disruptive technology does not guarantee to win against the competitors.  I am trying to find out the author and name of this novel, hopefully with the date of publication and in which journal/magazine. Spoilers Alert!!!      Bran sees that Jon is the son of Lyanna at Tower of Joy.   However, People of the north won't just believe words.  Howland Reed was with Eddard at the tower, Eddard is dead, but Howland could be alive. Even if Howland Reed comes forth and tells Jon's true lineage. It will still be just words.   Why would the people believe the words of a child and an old man?

Missing $ inserted." and waits for me to do something when converting to pdf. I have tried adding the instruction \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} and also \usepackage[greek]{babel}. I have not seen references either to needing to use any other package. What is exactly I am missing? This is a somewhat bizarre question. My objectives are to understand the language design decision and to identify the possibilities of reflection in C++.   Why C++ language committee did not go towards implementing reflection in the language? Is reflection too difficult in a language that does not run on a virtual machine (like java)? If one were to implement reflection for C++, what will be the challenges?   I guess the uses of reflection are well-known: editors can be more easily written, program code will be smaller, mocks can be generated for unit tests and so on. But it would be great if you could comment on uses of reflection too. I mean a average human can run at his full speed for 15 to 20 mins before getting tired. Trained athletes can go on running for much more time without tiring out.  Do Superheroes like Quicksilver or Flash ever get tired due to excessive running? 'took several years to be built' or 'took several years to build' – which one is correct? Which one of these sentences is correct?  The palace took several years to build.  or  The palace took several years to be built.  I heard the first one while I was watching Discovery Channel and I think it is not correct because the palace did not build on its own – someone had to build it. So the passive form seems the correct sentence. Does it matter what I choose for serialVersionUID when extending Serializable classes in Java?
