I ran into this trying to throw together a simple Automator script to combine several one-page PDF files. I had 88 files to combine, each just about exactly 300KB, so I expected the final product to be about 30MB; the resulting PDF file, using the Combine PDFs Automator action, was 300+MB. Poking around, the Automator action uses a Pyth...

Hi, I have a network management software which profiles network devices based on their MAC addresses. I want to write a tool to stress test this software by using virtual MAC addresses (simulate thousands of devices each having a different MAC address).

Here is the line I'm having trouble with... "Drag the synergys program from the synergy folder onto the Terminal window."
