You just weren't <sic>to to</sic> clear in your first post. /dev/null here couldn't figure out if you were just bitching about the idiocy of people's random licenses (and believe me, I've been seeing stupid licenses on code since 1984 on my school's Vax 785 run BSD4.1 -- it's gotten only marginally better), or whining that you couldn't use this super-cool pile of code because you couldn't contact the author. You did not hint that you even *tried* to contact him, them or whatever. And then you reply to the first response, bitching about what someone helpfully tries to suggest might aid you in finding the author. OK, I'm a shit for poking the bear. But still, you could have just said "yeah, I tried that, and haven't heard back", but no, you gotta put him in his place. . . Sheesh. > NULL + NULL + NULL still equals nothing. Properly chastised, I'm going back to lurking. Sean PS Theo does a *WAY* better job of bitch-slapping me, by the way. But keep trying! PPS Normally I avoid poking fun at people's typos and misspellings. But since turnabout is fair play. . .
