Yes, I have. I am not sure what the "bash-3.00$" stands for on this
page, though.



I have also installed the gidentd package, but didn't follow the
instructions located after it on this page, as I assumed they were not
directed towards Ubuntu users.

If I populated a database with data exported from FileMaker (for
example by exporting them from FM, and importing them into PostGres,
somehow, could I then work on this data with Glom?
