"Hmmm... strong in source, is this one. But I sense much proprietry
software in him. Proprietry software leads to closed development,
closed development leads to closed products, closed products lead to

As the saying goes, if you give a man a fish, he eats for a day. If you
teach him to grep for fish, he'll leave you alone all weekend. If you
encourage him to beg for fish, pretty soon c.l.p.misc will smell like a
three-week-dead trout. -- Tom Phoenix, c.l.p.misc.
