Is TempleOS still in active development? I'm sure they could use the help. Maybe Hannah Montana Linux is more this person's speed. As for me, I've never heard that term in my life - as it stands, it's a slang term from the 1720s. On top of that, searching an online dictionary brings up example sentences where it's someone's name. Pretty sure it's not used that way any more, if at all. > > -- > Peter N. M.
