I know, and I agree with you. But, really, preaching to the choir does not serve any useful purpose. That's what I'm saying. I usually comment or ask about Windows questions. Do you really think that adding a paragraph like the one by Robert at the start of every answer I receive is gonna produce any result at all, other than increasing the levels of adrenaline in my bloodstream and making me ignore that person's messages? > We've > decided to support Emacs on Windows, and that is probably a good thing > to do, but that doesn't mean Windows is ethical. No. But that does not make us, the people who use and work with Windows, unethical. Our priorities are a bit different, that's all. --=20 /L/e/k/t/u
