Holy crap, he is more helpful with his sarcasm and doubt than anything else. However, it does explains his tone, given that I am picking on his code. I see your reference to an acronym regarding top posting, but not a policy. In fact your reference is specifically listed under another obscure acronym OLOCA, which does not reference any policy. If you want to have a policy regarding top posting you should put it here: http://www.cygwin.com/lists.html FWIW, I think inline posting is very 90's. Your point get lost. Finally, I am serious and I am not looking for any further friends (I have enough). I am doing analysis and looking at code that shows how we can make great software better. If that's not welcome because of the format of my emails then I'll stop.
