Hola Aitor,
I remember you starting a thread complaining how lame MS-DOS is, and Tom replying (and I agreeing) the improvements that MS introduced in DOS in their version 2.0. The thread was fun, true, BUT a waste of bandwith and time, in my opinion.
Because I don't remember this, it must have been a waste of time, indeed ;-)
In this case I expressed concern that there could be users eventually complaining about certain implementation of certain commandline. In my opinion, it is not a waste of time discussing about the best way to avoid this to happen (and many people even took part giving their opinions, amongst them yourself).
And what have we achieved? An eagle, cancer, and pike (like in the Krylov's fable ;-)
To my experience, any time my own programs showed a light deviation respect to MS's, there was at least one user complaning, and I just wanted to help avoid this.
There is NO WAY to avoid this. The more you satisfy them, the more they complain :-(
Moral: what you think it's a waste of time, may not be for others. :)
This is true ;-)
Regards, Lucho
