Nice software !

I heard Thunderbird was a real emailing application. I heard it was a good one, even. Then I noticed that, when replying to such a mail:

Thunderbird does “stuff” to the subject:

    If you want to play more, look at pmap….

    I did a Firefox vs Konqueror
    I did a Thunderbird vs KMail
    (just because I had these at that time)

    Hi Hub,

    what’s pmap? Google doesn’t help a lot :)
    Btw, do you use SC now? Happy with it?

  4. malcolm Says:

    pmap stands for “physical address maps”, not sure what tool is, if any
    but you can look at the smaps which looks like a similar kind of thing
    /proc//smaps gives you loads of mind bendingly boring stuff about
    memory consumption. Probably interesting if you parsed it etc. or if you
    are a programmer ;)

  5. malcolm Says:

    that should be /proc/_pid_/smaps

    And if you think that is bad…. ;)
