Yes, you are right about that. That path may be changed again later.

I have been trying to get my head around both of these options, but so
far, I haven't been able to.
I knew nothing about auto* and I am still slowly picking up more
knowledge about it. I have found a few sites with decent documentation
about auto*, but it will take me more time to get a reasonable
understanding of it. I see why ports people complain about it so much.

I need to learn this if I am going to be able to contribute more. I
don't like just watching others work and not adding my own useful work.

I DO NOT want anyone to give me the answers to this problem or to point
me to anything that already fixes the same kind of problem. I am not
ready for that yet.

Still working,
Chris Bennett
