Thank you very much. Your clarification is very good. I was not intended to defy Maho's build but only to avoid cofusion. However, it seems to be good that we have double binaries for comprison, verification of source and so on. Enough reasons for double binaries. I'm sorry for my miscenception. Let's go on for the better quality of OOo.
