I don't know now - sorry. I've modified the file (heavily) since then, and 
changed it to an HTML document because that was the easier path forward. 
All I can tell you now is that it **was** a markdown (.md) file.  

I should have known better... I was preparing some info to post on my 
GitHub page, and it really needed to be in a table. "Official" Markdown 
doesn't include tables (so I'm told), but the GitHub flavor does using 
"pipe" characters as column markers and some dashes to indicate the header 
row is above. Tables are the ugliest things ever if the column width isn't 
controlled, but I allowed myself to believe there was a rational way to fix 
the ugliness. In the end there wasn't, and I just pissed away a precious 
hour of my life trying to make it presentable. Lesson learned! Ha ha... you 
didn't ask what I was doing, but I've told you anyway . :)

Rgds,
