A couple of sentences of follow-up would have been sufficient.
The experience that I have had over the years with Newsgroup posting
is that it is generally better to try to be polite and answer as many
questions as possible even when that results in more information being
posted than might be necessary. Hopefully a discussion will then end
quietly on a pleasant note.
That approach seems to usually produce good results. Quite often
people who are happy with the tone of the public Newsgroup discussion will
send along some valuable information by E-mail. And that has been happening
with this present discussion that will now continue in only the Fortran
Newsgroup.
