Thanks Steve:

{One man's meat is another man's poison.
/Prov./ Something that one person likes may be distasteful to someone 
else. Fred: What do you mean you don't like French fries? They're the 
best food in the world! Alan: One man's meat is another man's poison. 
Jill: I don't understand why Don doesn't like to read science fiction. 
It's the most interesting thing to read. Jane: One man's meat is another 
man's poison.}

I am grateful to those who have taken the trouble to provide help in a 
manner appealing to a Linux user of relatively low proficiency. Remember 
though that abstract theory may be harder to grasp for a learner who has 
not yet mastered the drill-and-practice!

> I counted 125+ messages in the thread.

This month three dozen authors have contributed discussion.

> Initially I gave them the benefit of the doubt, but ended up taking the bait and causing you all grief.

A specialist may be impatient with a beginner.

> Have added a mailbox rule to sideline them, so I won’t get distracted, and in turn won’t waste your time.

Please cultivate tolerance.

Thanks all,
B.
