Windows shit
In my master thesis I wrote a software and the install procedure is based on autoconf/automake stuff. I heard there are better ways, but this is not bad.
So far so good. Various people installed it, and it work. Now, a girl doing PhD got it, and couldn't install it. After a conversation with about 15 mails I got the problem: she unziped the tarball with Winzip. And Winzip don't look to files as bytes sequences... at least, not textual files. It adds that annoying ^M: Windows shit!!
