Ok, sorry. I don't think it's very useful for us though. 
For me it has been giving 'dead' grep hits for years, 
I've raised this issue in the past a few times, moved it 
to examples a few years back, so there has quite some 
chances to "save it" in the past. Just having something 
in SVN gathering dust _is_ actually a bad thing and 
something that slows down other work. If someone wants 
to restart with it anytime, it can easily be restored 
from any release of Harbour from the last 5 years. Anyhow 
I think it's better to focus on English now.

You're right. I forgot about it.

Yes.

Brgds,
