It feels like a quizz (is that how you spell it?) and I am impressed 
that you all find it so easily. I think this feature should be 
documented. It saves time. (Even if trying to find out what is happening 
is kind of fun, and worrying. Because I am not very fluent in list 
processing I thought there where some conventions I did not know about, 
that might have explained the behaviour. When you have a lot of options 
it is rather difficult, actually.)

Is there a way to calm down the message function?
