Perhaps I'm a bit trigger happy (this list has that effect on me sometimes), but what you're saying dangerously treads the patronizing border too, at least IM0. I don't entirely understand why should I be expected to exercise restrain on my ire, and not expect too for Robert to contain that preaching impulse of his. Excuse me if I'm wrong. Are you developing Emacs on Windows? I think the answer is not, which wouldn't put you on the receiving end of Robert's rhetorics. The reason I ask is, three people who hack Emacs on Windows (Lennart, Eli and myself) have already expressed (in wildly different ways, of course) the feeling that Roberts diatribes are not welcome *on technical questions*. So it's not just a matter of what I do find insulting. (Now, I know there are other people who hacks Emacs on Windows and have not expressed an opinion; I'm not claiming 100% agreement here or anything of that sort.) Really. I would like to give this issue some rest; I just find hard to leave "psychological counseling" like the one above pass unchallenged. It reminds me too much of the "you forgot to take your pills" insults the kids exchange on Usenet newsgroups. --=20 /L/e/k/t/u
