Well, yes. But that doesn't quote the origin, which is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker%27s_Guide_to_the_Galaxy, search for '42'. I hope you know that, but one can never be sure. -- -- Stephe _______________________________________________ Emacs-ada-mode mailing list [email protected] http://host114.hostmonster.com/mailman/listinfo/emacs-ada-mode_stephe-leake.org
