.jff File Conversion OSX - macos

I've been scowering the internet for a good portion of the morning trying to figure this out:
Using OSX, is there a way to either 1) Open a .jff file directly using a third-party software or 2) Is there any terminal command that has proven successful in converting such a file to a type recognizable to OSX?

#ShotgunNinja, you're correct on filling out the form. Thank you so much!

Is it possible to output on multiple terminal windows within a single program?

This question is very close to the following question:
Is it possible to output on multiple terminal windows within a single C program?
Yeah, I removed the the letter c. The above link shows how to do this on linux.
I was wondering, can this be done on windows and osx as well?
And if so how?
And also, can it work with "third party" terminals, like iTerm on osx or cmder on windows?
The language preferred to achieve this is java, but not required.
if i correctly understand, you need to create pipe to the terminal window, in order to send data to it. If found a link for you, which may help. spawning a new terminal and writing to its output

QtQuick 2 file size of download differ on windows

I wrote a small download script in the C++ part of my QtQuick2 app. This works just perfectly fine when I'm building the app for Mac OS 10.9.
For testing I download this file and when it's done I verify it against the given md5 check sum b3215c06647bc550406a9c8ccc378756
Only when I build the app on a windows PC the verification fails. On the second look I recognise that the size of the downloaded file differ with each downlaod, while the "size on disk" stays every time the same.
Do you have any idea what might trigger the strange behaviour in windows os?
Thanks in advance.
If it helps to solve the problem, I will show you my download script, but it's a pretty simple "read-all-write-to-file" script which runs every two seconds.
Could binary/text writing mode affects the result?
UPD: If you use QFile with QIODevice::Text it may behave differently depending on platform.
When reading, the end-of-line terminators are translated to '\n'. When writing, the end-of-line terminators are translated to the local encoding, for example '\r\n' for Win32.

Windows CLI equivalent to Linux lesser than symbol?

This is my first post and I'm already apologetic as this may be too simple of a question. I'm starting to teach myself SQL and the super guide I'm following (http://sql.learncodethehardway.org) uses linux commands while I'm trying to learn on a Windows PC.
The author uses the linux command < to send inputs from a text file on the right to the program on the left. Is there an equivalent to this command in Windows PowerShell? I googled the heck out of it and searched as much as I could here but couldn't find an answer.
Thanks for your assistance!

Copy into the system clipboard from local vim on mac

It seems like versions of this question have been asked here before, but I haven't been able to glean from them the exact response to what I am looking for.
Say I open up a .txt file via vim on my mac machine and I then want to copy a line from that file to be used in another .txt file or in a google search or in terminal during an ssh session. What would be the simplest way to do this?
Thanks,
EDIT
Found a potential duplicate: Vim: copy selection to OS X clipboard. But I am open to improvements! :)
i'm not sure wether it works for osx too but here on linux i use "+<yank>, there is also "*<yank>
see also http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Copy_an_Entire_Buffer_to_the_Clipboard
As mentioned in the other answer, use the + register or * register.
In some environments, * and + may not behave as expected. To enable the expected behavior, use a plugin like fakeclip. Fakeclip enables clipboard support when it is not available out of the box.

Scripting Bridge and Apple Mail

I'm am getting ready to attempt to implement Scripting Bridge for the first time, specifically to allow my program to construct and send emails to individual (or all) members of an opt-in email database.
Unfortunately, I'm already stuck on the first step... creating the Mail.h file.
According to Apple's documentation:
To create a header file, you need to run two command-line tools—sdef and sdp—together, with the output from one piped to the other. This is the recommended syntax:
sdef /path/to/application.app | sdp -fh --basename applicationName
However, when I attempt to execute this, I receive the following errors:
-bash: sdef: command not found
-bash: sdp: command not found
My guess is that I'm trying to execute programs that are (clearly) not installed on my system, which is a MacBook Pro running Lion (10.7.4)
A quick google search turned up an older version of sdef for v10.4, but I'm now wondering: Is this process still the recommended procedure, or is there another way I should be generating a Mail.h header file? Apple's documentation is rather vague on this point.
Any help would be appreciated.
After some additional research and experimentation, I was able to get everything working by allowing XCODE to create the header files, rather than doing it manually from the command line.
XCODE also uses the sdp and sdef commands, but had no problem accessing them. I am still not entirely certain why I could not run the commands in the bash shell, but I suspect they must be run from the root user perhaps?
In any event, here is a link to the Apple Documentation which outlines the steps I took to get everything working correctly:
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#samplecode/SBSystemPrefs/Listings/ReadMe_txt.html
You should be able to use sdef and sdp after installing the command line tools. These are an optional install since XCode 4.3.
