Sorry but a newcomer is not supposed to post any URL because of the too many spammers we couldn't clean manually. So, I invite you to contribute without any URL, and in a few editions, your account will be authorized to add references in the books. JackPotte (discuss • contribs) 19:10, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

You appear to be copying from another project, which is almost certainly a violation of the license or copyright status of that work. Can you provide a link so the attribution can be established. Also, the content is not English - are you intending to translate it? QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 16:04, 28 August 2019 (UTC)

It's a false positive caused by the filter detecting that you were adding a string of CAPITAL letters (i.e., PRINT). It doesn't detect this as a removal of a space, but a removal of a whole line and replacement with a new line. QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 08:25, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

To justify my point[edit]

I want to tell you that I never changed any of wiki books pages before this time. It shows the wrong error to me. Please recheck my update and then decide

Auxiliares de Conversación, Language and Culture Assistants in Spain Survival Guide (filter log)
Description
Add links to free activities that teachers in the program could use. All of these activities (except for the podcast) are linked on the program's actual page- which the wikibook sites as the source- i.e., " All this information can be found by going to: (website)". I thought adding these activities to the book would save people a click, and because I haven't seen the podcast mentioned anywhere, figured I would do so here.

Additionally- I didn't know that "linkspamming" was a thing.

====CHDIR====
 CHDIR directoryname
This is used for setting the working directory, also known as the current directory. The directory name is specified exactly like in DOS and long file names aren't supported. For example:
 CHDIR "C:\DOS"
Note that this doesn't change the current drive and every drive has its own working directory. You can set the current drive like this:
 SHELL "C:"

Interesting and thought provoking, particularly the history of tools creating tools. As for the future, have you looked at fab lab? CNC machines and 3D printers might make the booting processes easier and faster. Also how about genetically engineered crops to produce better raw materials? Some sort of nano-cellulose with organic resin binder might give a very high strength to weight ratio material. This type of composite could be used a room temperatures and replace metal for many applications.

Thanks again.
