Sorry, no. Not unless we are removing all the other "personalized" comments, of which we have quite a few. Some examples: /* Rewritten for clarity and GC protection by rms in Feb 94. */ /* There is no way to specify the before_dot and after_dot operators. rms says this is ok. --karl */ /* rms, 2003-01-03: I think I have fixed this bug. */ Personally, I don't like to remove other people's credit, even when expressed in this form. But if we are going to delete all such comments, I won't object.
