You started it.  I ended it.  I also have proof:

http://dorsai-01.celestial.com/pipermail/filepro-list/2016-May/032635.html

It's the third message in the thread, and the link is the fourth line I
actually originated (i.e., did not quote).

That's not a flame, that's proof.  If you -want- flames, I can oblige.  
Keep pushin'.  :)

I did offer a simple solution which is arguably the most flexible for the
need, in that -all0- you need is filePro, which you're already using.
Learn to read.

It really is relevant, if you'd bothered to read the logic I presented.  If
your reading comprehension were higher, and/or your grasp of logic tighter,
you'd grasp that.

I did help.  See aforementioned link.  For someone who doesn't like
spurious input, you're sure being repetitive about something on which
you're dead wrong.

You're labouring under the mistaken impression that I actually give a damn
what you think of me.
