I see. Your contention is that we should treat 100% software, 99%software+1%documentation, 98%software+2%documentation, ... 2%software+98%documentation, 1%software+999%documentation -- somehow differently from 100%documentation? Why, pray? What makes 99.99999%documentation + 0.00001%software so very different from 100%documentation? What, in removing that last bit of software so radically changes the effect of an inability to modify the work at will that we should redefine our concept of freedom? manoj -- egrep patterns are full regular expressions; it uses a fast deterministic algorithm that sometimes needs exponential space.
