Re: Taking quotes on building LC external for RethinkDB

Yeah, I started to skim the security notes at , but when I got to this: The best way to secure a RethinkDB cluster is to run it on a protected network that doesn’t allow access from the outside world. However, this may not always be feasible.

Re: How do I specify the papersize name for printing?

That is an interesting question. Working with copiers, I know that the paper "name" (= size) have to match a built-in "name" in order for the printer to auto-print, otherwise the print job gets redirected to the bypass (manual feed) tray and held until a user hits the Go button. Sone drivers

I do not think that vowels are automatically detected, so you need to put the chars representing vowel sounds into a variabel tVowels . Run a repeat for each char tChar of the string and check if tChar is in tVowels, like this (using Norwegian vowels as an example) put “aeioyæøå” into tVowels
