DUMBASS IDIOT did NOT correctly configure his EASY-AS-PIE

This has ZERO to do with grenade explosions.

First, we can discuss Microsoft implementations any way we se fit -- you and
the rest of the Linux loonies have no say in what we do at all. Commenting
code with "adolescent ironies" is decidedly poor coding practice -- perhaps
they could have diverted those energies towards documenting their code
rather than commenting on completely unrelated code that they've never even
seen before. Microsoft's implementations are by definition
"professional" -- that's what they do for a living. Linux implementations
are by definition "amateur" as they are done as a pastime rather than as a
profession. There are maybe a hundred or so folks that actually get paid to
code linux (the kernel) and all the varied programs included in all the
distros combined. Hell, Torvalds doesn't even get paid to do the kernel --
he gets paid to write microcode for the Transmeta chips and to write the
currently CLOSED SOURCE Mobile Linux.

Scrolling window? Using those terms precisely would yeild a window with a
scrollbar (perhaps two!) and no innate ability to have any content other
than what can be drawn on it's device context. It's up to your
implementation to draw the particular segment of your content as appropriate
for the position of the scrollbar thumb and window size. If you could
"until all available memory has been used" then you are doing two things
wrong -- you've turned off virtual memory and your implementation caches
everything in memory regardless of it's size instead of implementing a spool
or diff file or using memory mapped files. Perhaps a call to
GlobalMemoryStatusEx could be used to determine the right amount of cache
:-) You also didn't specify what OS this is either, nor what allocation
mechanism your implementation is using -- new/delete, malloc/free or the
heap functions. In fact you've said nothing to make anyone who has done any
serious Windows programming believe a word you've said let alone be able to
blame the OS for your ineptitude.

I am not sure what "auto format" is exactly, but vim can both auto indent

I'd suggest the Cygnus approach: release the code under GPL, then offer
the freedom-free licenses for sale. Of course, this could hamper their
