If a program was written and distributed with a free or open license, then it's not a garbage for a writer at least. The purpose of usage for everyone else could be different, maybe be a learning as example. So, even if it's a simple script, but which somebody use and update, is where a reason to block it? After all it's not breaking anything. :-) Thanks, Oleg. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEc+OyAXw1EaDPCmAPckbhHGm3lWkFAlpxPeEACgkQckbhHGm3 lWl5zRAAj97zVYMOO4ljSgtwxj7+pj4k+UmJo35tzxom7F5TE2eMMNvuN/O0xhHG 2rTna8U+kdOVNTH0K/K5BvBs9q1sLk+krO21u2/6cKAEtfvjYEDsHMgsr24sXEG0 p2zzGRR+UIp/w2jJWaXBpz0Hqv1IFTx5LBEOCzeXZc4plz4lkuLynX8s0bPM+K6V 5jSwh0zBV97+WHNlhyanTanzp2SnolLp84SB2gM/Bx5EaHHo6Dm+Z9nr5dFRre68 tTunA2fd4Xp3iR68d0xUxY2neFVp6i0tFX+GOXOgHsh77ELQMf8ki7b9bqYE2VUH UP4kWSEEuZcyo/vYFudQ3VyCbEuD4VQxMwZmVdGWKJUpGJ/JHlKmIAwT6ey7YuuM 3YCxTxb4zUt6yvC5mJ4lJIUkmcb/bCek4F3DY3CmsE/IeT/o5xmR8//naQ2v1BAd V6T8em7PNdkaVXpz51ijXNbc/wQOHNQxHa8UB3MzIRC5YWZwHqL0h0mM5T3X5ZiX paSV7II6NMRMn8xwc5fSn4AOTce0DwN7BLiEi61c6ikGtq9zFV2s3RLNUvDm2NMh yshhJBZTRrtrnv726I+rdepKwxDX+nTw7+YJyv3Hck46j0jiW4QGZ0ZAoxuEgBIA 7yrJ0x4P0OTtCxFEKzbh6yvfQT2ERdlfk7qC7WHvsJ22Dw0fyVY= =ug12 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
