Oops :-) No - but he generally behaves responsibly by avoiding flame-wars
(apart from his recent KDE comment where he seemed to mess up on the license
issues :-( )

Yeah - at work we check for a environment variable to see if we want to run
a program under the debugger (Englishfied code) :
#if OS2
#define debug "start /c " debugenv
#endif
#if UNIX
#define debug debugenv " &"
#endif
#if NT
#define debug "echo Crappy Visual C won't let us start a program \
and there's no way I'm going to DDE it"
#endif
