Just for the record: I originated the thread, and I have only sent one letter on this matter which wasn't also copied to gnuwin32. That was to Mumit Khan saying nothing except that I had already sent a related note to gnuwin32. In particular, everyone here has also seen what I wrote directly to vtailor@gte.net. That note was perhaps showing a bit of frustration with receiving conflicting signals from various people, but hardly "wildly abusive". You be the judge. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
