Name-calling won't make anyone more likely to help you out.  This is a
_collective_ effort.  You spotted a problem; submit at least a bug
report if not a fix.

To be fair, Scott, I think he was saying in effect "if the docs are really accurate about this, then the design is f**ked", which would be a fair and reasonable statement. I don't think he's saying that the docs are incoherent and stupid as written... just wrong. -Peter

Thanks for sticking up for me, and yes, this was what i meant. I could have formulated myself a bit annorlund though, have to blame the late hours :P I'm going to submit a bug report, just don't have much experience with that... but hey, sometime must be the first! ;)

My apologies belong in this thread. Sorry, nicke, I react to the "f**ked" without considering that you might have only meant "... could not really have been designed this way." I seldom use such language, and only now noticed the smiley after it. What is the typogram for "I feel like an idiot?"

In any case I should have been a bit more gentle in suggesting that
this is the way we help ourselves forward -- by fixing when the first
instinct is to curse.  Certainly calling anything "name-calling"
was a pretty lousy invitation to play along.
