So... there it is Herb.. the reason you take exception to the
advice I give out, the tutes written, and the FAQ docs that have
been built - by myself with the assistance of others..
It is...
You _do not bloody know, haven't a bloody clue!
All that you have written here is only going to confuse
others to the SAME level you are confused.
Just how much binary experience have you got, Herb?
ABCP and a few font posts the extents of it ??
10years in ABCP is no ranking of "how to" Herb.. lets
be very very clear on that score :-/
News... Herb?
The very reason we are seeing posts retained and
propagated today (in ABCP) is because they are
posted in a manner YOU would disagree with..
according to what you have just posted as "help"!
Compare that "excellent order" to the mess that
evolved here after B Pucky left.
And,, IF you have the old FAQ that B Pucky wrote... go read it.
I am sure you will then realise you are FOS.

..bloody incredible..!
I always wondered what it was with you... thought maybe it
was the fact <5foot2> saw through you and went with the
person who does know.
I see now that was a thought in error.
You just don't know what you are 'talking' about.
'shakes head'
