hidden (updated) Elisp to do the job

[Emanuel Berg via Users list for the GNU Emacs text editor]

Here is even more Elisp for your viewing
pleasure. Keep up the good job!

And... what... does the first function _do_,
really?!

(PS. Save for the esoteric/dual feature, the
 other time file - mentioned - is more
 interesting. And more spooky... :) DS.)

But now, check out the new stuff first hand:

Or read it right here:

Real world example - we are building
a bastu/sauna/banya! [1]
    
Credits so far!

Well - between us Emacs aficionados - I've
been doing 98% of the work to this day!
Which has been a lot :) Which is how I like it
:) But that file doesn't consider that, by
intent, to get to the people who don't do jack
:) It is all figured out B)

Anyway the `updated' function works great and
a real long-ear Lisper will immediately spot
it :)

Straight Secret Empire!
