Then some (by no means all) become dissatisfied as their needs grow and look around; when I started getting seriously into mailing lists OE began to come up short. (And, of course, the fact that OE and many other things are 'there' automatically discriminates against TB! and many other packages. Either that or all these lawyers and judges are wasting their time ;) Alastair -- _________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : http://wish.thebat.dutaint.com BugTraq : https://bt.ritlabs.com/
