Using Python to Print Fibonacci Sequences

	fib.py
	A simple Fibonacci sequencer.
	by Rob Dumas.
	Public Domain (no copyright restrictions).

	If someone using our program wants to get 13 numbers in the Fibonacci sequence
	(or 10 or 100 or any other number), they have to edit our program by hand. Most
	people don't want to do this, so Python has LIBRARIES (collections of tools)

Back up Flash Drive

	#!/usr/bin/env sh
	#
	# This script backs up your flash drive to a local folder. If you're also
	# using a backup system such as Time Machine (and you are, right?), this
	# ensures you will have a snapshot of your flash drive the last time you
	# plugged it in. Time Machine will then capture the folder, thus
	# automatically creating time-based backups for even your portable storage!
	#
	# If you use launchd to run this script whenever you plug your flash drive
	# into your Mac, you don't even need to think about it. Full instructions on
