I would find it surprising if you always used a capture card to test everything, including trivial bugs that can be fixed by inspection. > > If I had sent my message including an explanation of where and > > why I thought the code was wrong, instead of a literal patch, > > perhaps I would have gotten a warmer reception. > > Probably. Why include a patch if you didn't intend it to be used? What's > helpful about that? A suggestion on how to use your typical one-line patch: edit the file that was changed in it, jump to the line the patch refers to, and read around; you'll probably discover there's something funny. I wish all the bugs I have to fix for living were given to me like that. I'm not going to continue with this, it's completely fruitless.
