Course at the simplest level, user incompetence doesn't help. Like
people who use the computer as a ****ing typewriter (thinks: hmmm.
Where have I heard that before? Recently, too).


Oh dear, Timmy, Timmy, Timmy.

From your remark there I can only conclude that you've never done
any "serious" programming then ? Or as it's called "coding" nowadays
I believe.

"Serious" as meaning anything more advanced than copying
listings out of the back of "My Sinclair" magazines at least.

So you've never experiences that joy that comes with the realisation
that compilers simply don't care how many blank lines you leave.
between routines ? Between subroutines, even between imdividual
lines if you wish ? And the same goes for HTML interpreters
too. You can leave as many blank lines as you like there, as well.

I'm talking about Word document, dope, not text files. Do keep
up.


No mention of any Word document here, Timmy -

There is also no need, as I've pointed out before, to press the return
key a number of times after typing your signature. You're using a
computer, not a ****ing typewriter.


As far as I can see anyway.

Or maybe you can't remember that far back.

As admittedly, you did seem quite upset at the time.

Oh, but you just did remember - it's at the top of this post

" Like people who use the computer as a ****ing typewriter (thinks: hmmm.

Let's just hope this doesn't make you even more upset, eh ?
