comment How to `rm *`, an actual file named “*”?
@jlliagre The questions are not the same, but the answers are, and they boil down to escaping the glob, or quoting it, so anybody looking to remove such a file should find the answers helpful.

comment How to remove files in different folders?
This will horribly fail if any of the paths found contains a space. A safer alternative would be to remove the files and folders found through the exec option of find. Please note that you have to escape back ticks or indent code by 4 spaces.

Does it print the files if you leave out the delete option?

comment How to install htop on osx using brew?
Yeah, I'd remove the other one and reinstall the brew version if you don't need it to be the exact same version—it can be that they're a little different.

Anthony, please register your account, and then use the process here to merge your accounts: superuser.com/help/user-merge – seems you've lost your cookie and your question & answer need to be reassociated.

comment can I know if anyone access/copy data from server?
Hi Annie! We require much more information in order to be able to help you. Please be as specific as possible about what "some web data" is. What kind of website are you hosting? Does it consist of plain HTML documents, or do you run a CMS with some database in the backend? Where do you host it? On a local machine, or some remote server? What OS and server software is running there? Who has access to that server? And finally, if you're part of that web team, why not ask around who did it?

Did you install emacs through Homebrew already? If so, you can probably just overwrite it.

comment How can I install mediafilesegmenter for OS X?
Hmm, but HTTP Live Streaming Tools are not the same as MakeRefMovie as far as I can see. I noticed that it points to the same file as well, weird. Sorry, no idea at this point.

comment How can I install mediafilesegmenter for OS X?
Does it say anywhere that a program called mediafilesegmenter would be installed? The package you downloaded does not contain such a binary.
