Only a breach of criminal law may lead to prosecution. Breach of civil law, however, could well lead to the defendant being sued.
As trespass is a civil offence and not a criminal one then trespassers will most certainly not be prosecuted.
This post is attributed to my brother whom provided the information in the same conversation he tricked me into mis-answering a QI like question. More on that story later.
If you’ve ever used the great GNU Image Manipulation Program, GIMP, on a Mac then you’ll no doubt have been frustrated with the way X11 seems to handle window focus. Fortunately there is a solution and its just a couple of simple terminal commands away…
When selecting tools from their dialog in GIMP on your Mac then you are required to click once to give that window focus and again to actually select the tool you require. The same two clicks are required again to actually use your tool. You can either imagine or know first hand how annoying this becomes and its a shame for such a great piece of software to be blighted by this issue so lets fix it.
Firstly you’ll want to open your terminal (who could live without it… mine’s almost always open!). Then you want to enter either of the following commands depending on whether you’ve got XQuartz updates (and if you’re not sure just do both sets).
