Well, I suppose, I am one of those you mentioned. Yes, I said something like "Getopt::Save20Lines". Though I'm not the one started that (I started to laugh at Johan's "Getopt::Personal::EWilhelm"), but if that's not appropriate, I apologize. But, then, is this whole thread that meaningless? We people here all took time to try to read, ask and understand what Eric thinks, provide our feedback, explaining this and that. Aristotle and I even figured out a simple solution to Eric's problem. We have proved that Getopt::Long is not "unpredictable". It is flexable to solve Eric's major problem. Or maybe everybody here was doing wrong. Should we just say, "go ahead, make your day", without even bother to watch his slides and figure out the problem? If a blind "yes" is all is needed here, it's OK. Then Eric should not address this issue at all. Module registration is not required, too. But, to be honest, I think the response Eric got is a lot more friendly than what I got about a question regarding to CGI.pm. Surely a simple patch that shouldn't make any problem should not address any discussion, but should it not address any attention to the author? Of course, it's the author's decision to pay attention to me or not. I shouldn't complain about that. -- Best regards, imacat ^_*' <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP Key: http://www.imacat.idv.tw/me/pgpkey.txt <<Woman's Voice>> News: http://www.wov.idv.tw/ Tavern IMACAT's: http://www.imacat.idv.tw/ TLUG List Manager: http://www.linux.org.tw/mailman/listinfo/tlug
