Hi,

I feel no anguish. I applaud your efforts so far and hope you
continue to pursue the {,B}LFS way of Linux. I am a forthright
person who speaks his mind. I can come off as abrasive. I am
constantly working on that. Though I can certainly say I will
never sugar-coat stuff, I do feel that there are times that I
wished I had reworded stuff.

Technical advice is straight forward. It is difficult for me to
take the time to make it tactful sometimes. I will continue to
work in that area. Oh well. Don't take it personally. Keep it
going, dude!

Lastly, when folks say something like the man pages are difficult
to understand, and then I read it and it says:

"M  toggles  muting  for the current channel (both left and right).
If the hardware supports it, you can mute left and right
independently by using , (or <) and .  (or >) respectively."

I then wonder how serious to take the person who said that it
was difficult to understand. See what I mean?


Nice to see your encouraging remarks. I agree with you that one must try not to be abrasive.

Incidently, I have never asked any question about 'unmuting the channels'. Jeremy Byron, in his detailed response, had already put me wise on that. I do not know where you got this fix on 'unmuting'.

About the manual pages, It was a general remark about these not being very user friendly, which is true to quite some extent.

But I said this earlier and I say this again that one should read the manuals before coming to the List. That is a lesson for me.

Thanks and Regards

Randhir Phagura
