Gabor, Dave is volunteering his code. That's such a nice way of you to treat volunteers. Would you prefer it that he didn't even upload it to CPAN? Would you prefer it if he remove the important offer [*that you edited out*] that he's happy to accept competent patches from anyone who makes his code woke on Windows? Because you're going the right way about it to get either of those two results. I appreciate what you want. I'd also want what you ultimately want. But you're going the *wrong way* about getting it.
