What is the mark that looks like a slur but with straight lines, not curved

In "Curtain Call" by John Wasson, the oboe part (and others) includes an articulation mark that I'm not familiar with. It looks like a slur, but the up and down are straight lines, instead of curved.

Could somebody explain to me what I'm supposed to be doing here? I've been playing it as a bit of a bend, but I'm not convinced that's correct.

          This is called the shake! It adds a short grace figure to the transition to the second note like this:
          enter image description here



          Always start the shake figure by holding the first note slightly.
          For a descending shake you then go up a step, back down to the first note, then to the second note. Notice in your example the second note of each shake has a teepee articulation, so honor that.



          On brass the shake is done with the lip.

                    Image
                    up vote 0 down vote favorite I need help with an issue we're facing in a project where we are moving from a Windows-based POS environment to one running on CentOS7. The problem consists of a number of factors, please find the details below: The supplier of our POS application will only deliver an application that is hard-coded to run in a 1024:768 4:3 format. The hardware we are using is a POS unit from HP that has a built-in 16:9 touch-screen. The employees using this solution is not supposed to see nor have access to anything but the POS application. Our sales organization demands that touch is an available feature when going live with the new POS environment. Going further into this, allow me to explain what we have encountered on the way trying to achieve the goal of having a touch-screen: We've simply change...

                    QoS: MAC-Priority for clients behind a repeater

                    Image
                    1 1 I've setup a wireless network using a Linksys-Router (DD-WRT) as an AP and a TP-Link repeater for range extension. To manage bandwith for specific users, I've setup QoS-Rules on the AP (DD-WRT) using MAC-Priority: However the AP shows only the Repeater's MAC and the MACs of users inside the AP-Range. The MAC addresses of users behind the Repeater are not listed : The purple MAC is not listed in the AP-Clientlist. Its related to a device connected via the TP-Link repeater. Q: How can I setup MAC-Priority for repeater-clients? Do I simply add the purple MAC in AP-MAC priority list although it's not listed as a client? I want to setup specific priority instead of giving one priority for all clients behind the repeater by adding the repeater's MAC in the MAC priority list in the AP as ...
