Hi Thomas, Clarence, et al,
Thomas, I don't understand your
post. You say "I can't back you up" to Clarence, but as I
read your post it sounds like you are backing him up!
I repeat: "I back you up Clarence. Arachne's inability
to use COM3 or COM4 as it comes packaged without performing
shenanigans with someone elses fixes caused me many hours
of consternating when I first installed Arachne."
