as to obtain greater insight into the needs of our users.
That went over like a lead balloon.

My Pet Hate however is a very simple one. Xcode wants no spaces between an

It's smart.
I agree.

Hi,
Have you ever seen a header file with a comment that goes on forever on one

For example:

You could create a Behavior that runs a shellscript to do this, and then bind
