Maybe. Or maybe the set of emails I got could have been more clear. I
spent several hours trying to whack ports into shape due to your emails -
rather than ignore them. Figuring out how to whack this one on the head
was particularly time consuming due to its obtuse build. Rather than be
curt, now that I know how to change it - simply saying "XYZ" is a better
subsitution would be nice. :-)
