The full-auto, .50 cal. reply does nothing for the project. I am sorry to have offended you. Whether you see it or not, there _is_ a wall that people face when they are not the author's of a feature. Your complaint that people didn't know about the feature proves something, and I do know exactly what I am up against when I try to do new things in crossfire. I did, you know, just figure out autoconf/automake when other developers are too lazy to do it, so I could do the libglade conversion, so this is not at about being willing or not willing to dig, but it is about facilitating people at overcoming barriers with discriminate redundancy, which is a known quality of good training. Two minutes is sufficient to drive most people away from something if they know an easier way. match is easier. All your points about resources are good. They will help if I feel like taking on what I firmly believe will help people use the feature. Whether I did it correctly or not might be in question, but the motive behind what and why I wrote is for the good of the project, and not to knock a skilled and valued individual. Please take some time to try to believe that. Kevin _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
