Well if you really want me to make a point about how people who are needlessly belligerent on inappropriate threads are evidently incompetent at life, that's fine. I could have a field day nitpicking the psychology of people who overcompensate for their own inferiority by directing disproportionate aggression towards hapless randoms who dare to suggest naive ideas. I just think development threads are more productive when socially inept morons aren't derailing conversations with fruitless personal attacks. You understand the inherent pitfalls of fallacious behavior right? > You want your terminal emulator to replace xmessage? Really? No, I want a terminal emulator that can behave like a terminal emulator. Last time I checked xmessage wasn't a terminal emulator.
