Really good proposition! I was just not thinking to that.

Yeah, I should mention more that "man" is -the- way to learn interesting

I would like an automated way to transfer the previous/home/next link on

I have ---73--- *.html file to edit!
So long and boring.

I would also like to know the -exact- meaning of "ie."
Something like "exemple"?
