You're not being stupid. You're being stubborn. You refuse to see
a very simple thing: there are problems that cannot be solved using
the language means alone; some OS-specific means need to be employed.
That means a language-specific newsgroup cannot tell you what to do
since the answer usually falls outside of the scope of any specific
language newsgroup.
