Ответ на сообщение mark lewis (1:3634/12.73) к Sean Dennis, написанное 13 янв 22 в 14:37: ml> when i lived in xxcarol's area back when we joined fidonet, we had ml> installed a number of computers with networking and printers in a law ml> firm... i don't remember the exact number but it was a decent sized ml> contract so let's call it 50 systems... in the initial week, we they ml> were getting used to the systems and installing all their software, we ml> fielded several calls a day, generally from the typing pool, about the ml> ANY key... after several days of this, i was told, "go over there and ml> solve the problem once and for all." I'm surprised this problem existed in English-speaking countries, where everyone knows meaning of word "any". In Russia it was much harder, because in 90's most software was not translated to Russian. We even had special job title "anykeyshik" - junior sysadmin who tells users where is "any key".
