Joe's questions

On osx/linux I want to be able to run a command/script on the terminal from anywhere which links to a program.

ie I want to be able to run:

alloy

that runs:

/usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/alloy/bin/alloy

I'm guessing adding to .bashrc is the best way? I've tried running:

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/alloy/bin"

and also:

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/share/npm/lib/node_modules/alloy/bin/alloy"

Then I started a new terminal window but the alloy command doesnt work. Am I missing something?

I am doing 301 redirects for old sites to a single site, rather then having to add the same RewriteRule more then once, is there a way to say write it once? that way i just need to add the rewriteCond once?

My current code

RewriteEngine on 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^Oldsite.local [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ newSite.local%2 [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^Oldsite2.local [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ newSite.local%2 [L,R=301]

I tried : RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^Oldsite.local [NC]   
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^Oldsite2.local [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ newSite.local%2 [L,R=301]

but that doesnt seem to work

I am using iis win2k3. How do I go about extracting an adhoc list of websites, displaying the host header value, description and web folder location?

The export list only shows the header and description value.

UPDATE - matt provided answer and I've updated the code to spit out to a file. hope this helpful for someone

I have a firefox imacro script that downloads a xml file from a trusted source. When the file is downloaded we process the file using ssis. Unfortunately we can not do this unless the "unblock" button is clicked in the file properties, next to the message "This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer".

My question is how do I write a script to set the attribute to "unblock"? Can someone advise on what is the name of this attibute so I can further research
