The only thing I said I couldn't (more like would not/didn't have time
to) do was make the frontend (Respond) display PostScript.
A quote from your E-mail:
"The front end should produce a postscript cover page."
I explained that with Respond/printfax.pl, the backend produces the
PostScript, but that my Respond replacement could provide a preview of
the fax.
You did not dispute that, and we continued to correspond for a while, so
I assumed we were still go on the project.
I basically think that you never had a handle on what software you were
using or how to express what you wanted. And you apparently had a poor
understanding of what I was trying to tell you.
That's the charitable interpretation, anyway.
But why you dropped the whole issue as I continued to try to get the
information I needed to continue, I'm not sure.
None of this is a capital crime. But I did find you very difficult to
(try to) work with, and I think my warning was proper.
Anyway, this list is not the place to continue to discuss this. Not
that I want to, or have any desire to continue to (try to) work with you...
