Microsoft Magic

MAGIC #1

An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the computer which can be named as "CON". This is something pretty cool...and unbelievable... At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened!
TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER


MAGIC #2
For those of you using Windows, do the following:

1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want.
4.) Close it, and re-open it.

can you believe it?

Aiyo thaamath kattiya magic kiyalane hithenne me scene eka....

One of my earlier posts

Maybe an Indian found it by coincidence. But we, Sri Lankans have the explanation....

Exp 01.
You can rename folders as "con"
Try this: md \\.\c:\con

Exp02.
Yes, you can't create a folder called CON. Because Con = console (A reserved word in the Windows OS. The same as the phenomena of disallowing to create a variable called int in many programming languages.

In Exp 01, it actually creates a folder called <space>con.

to delete a con folder: rd \\.\c:\con



Not only con, but you have many reserved words like: CON, AUX, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, PRN, NUL

Its nothing to do with Bush. It has something to do with a sentence with a character string of 4, 3, 3, 5 characters. Try "Bill fed the goats"

And it's a bug in ANSI coding standard.


Sources: wiki & hoaxslayer.










This is an inbuilt macro function to check the characters. In fact, the sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" contain all the letters in the alphabet.

(200, 99) means the number of paragraphs and the number of sentences respectively.
