I've had this situation once before, you find a question with a bounty, and immediately you remember you've answered a similar question. You cannot vote to close, since the question is "bountied", bu …

In many cases, problems can be solved, or at least worked around, by making a small script. I am very well aware of the fact that this site is not a script-factory and people should not expect other u …

You will most certainly know a few of the keywords from your question. To find all questions I ever asked, containing the word python, I type in the search bar (showing "Search on Ask Ubuntu): pyth …
