That was not the bit I disagreed with, but the bit where you said that you
don't really need it anymore - I find the lingo.ini extremely helpful when
it comes to stub projectors. Why make 10 projectors when you can make only
one? :)

Ah, I didn't know that handy tidbit.

Oops :) This bit of explanation wasn't actually meant for you, but for
whoever asked the original question... I really should have made it clear. I
know that YOU know all about globals: you're the one who taught me all about
it in the first place, in your "Lingo!" book :) :) :)
