Hi,

I need help in gettng a list of gems. When I use
gem list --remote

it works but in windows prompt the list is truncated. Increasing the
buffer does not help.
I tried to do a dump to a file but it only reads the first line the quits

gem list --remote -> list.txt

Anyone know a trick for this?

It's not one of Starfleet's usual regular functions either.

====================================

Point to David.

BTW...is the Cost Guard a consumer protection group?

They were trained to act as diplomats but that wasn't their main job.
In the same way someone might know how to work on a car but that isn't
their real job. Starfleet had a set of real diplomats that we
occasionally saw. The only reason the Starfleet captains had to be
able to act as diplomats is because of the distances involved between
star systems making it impossible for the official diplomats to be on
call for everything that might come up.

Exactly! In anycase Starfleet captains do not imply at anytime the use of force
to do not threaten the contact to open relations or else. That is what 19th
century and prior times Navies did before, Captain Cook being one of the few
exceptions.

Actually the line is:

SCOTT: Diplomats. The best diplomat I know is a fully activated phaser bank.

That is from "A Taste of Armageddon".

To put it in context, it was said in a response to Ambassador Fox after Eminiar
Seven attacked the with a sonic disruter weapon. It was in the context of
Eminiar Seven holding Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock during their computer lottery
simulation of a war with Vendikar in which any casualties the computer spat out
and your name was on it you were to report to a place where you would be
killed.

The orders from the Federation was to establish diplomatic relations no matter
what. Ironically it was Ambassador Fox, the professional full time diplomat
that the Federation sent on the Enterprise to open relations immediately that
got them in that mess because he told Captain Kirk to ignore the message from
the planet not to approach the planet under *ANY* circumstances, none
whatsoever;

A Taste of Armageddon
Original Airdate: Feb 23, 1967
Stardate: 3192.1

KIRK: Nothing yet, Lieutenant?

UHURA: Nothing, Captain. Hailing frequencies are open.
(Ambassador Fox enters the Bridge from the turbolift.)

FOX: Have you received an answer to your message yet, Captain?

KIRK: Nothing yet, Ambassador. We're awaiting a reply. Today's the first time
we've had any evidence they've picked up our signal.

UHURA: Captain, message coming in from Eminiar Seven. Sir, it's code seven-ten.

KIRK: Are you sure?

UHURA: Positive. It repeats over and over.

FOX: Is that supposed to mean something?

KIRK: Code seven-ten means under no circumstances are we to approach that
planet. No circumstances what so ever.

FOX: You will disregard that signal, Captain.

KIRK: Mister Fox, it is their planet.

FOX: Captain, in the past twenty years, thousands of lives have been lost in
this quadrant. Lives that could have been saved if the Federation had a treaty
port here. We mean to have that port and I'm here to get it.

KIRK: By disregarding code seven-ten, you might well involve us in an
interplanetary war.

FOX: I'm quite prepared to take that risk.

KIRK: You are. I'm thinking about this ship, my crew.

FOX: I have my orders, Captain, and now you have yours. You will proceed on
course. Achieve orbit status and just leave the rest to me. You're well aware
that my mission gives me the power of command. I now exercise it. You will
proceed on course. That's a direct order.
(He leaves.)

SPOCK: In view of code seven-ten, Captain, may I suggest

KIRK: Yes, Mister Spock. This is the Captain. Condition Yellow Alert. Phaser
crews stand by. Deflector shields up. We're going in. Peacefully, I hope. But
peacefully or not, we're going in.

So it was a professional full time diplomat that was doing the bullying!

Well heck it was professional diplomats who told Perry to sail into the
harbor as well.

The characters actually made a point of designating the Defiant as a
warship in the show.
