LOL

Yes, I'm sure she's diabolical that way (I guess M stands for methodical or 
meticulous).  It must be the long nights spent slaving over Cygwin code has 
warped her thinking into providing helpful things like the automatic rebaseall 
feature (thank you Corina, your work has not been unappreciated) which has 
long been needed.

:) :) :)

Sincerely,
