I say it for the very last time here, since I'm getting really tired of
this. I'm not here to advocates changes to MiNT in order to make STinG
work. STinG does work very well with MiNT. Full-Stop.

I'm here because I thought I could contribute a small thing to make MiNT
a little more compatible with existing system tools. Since I'm mostly
getting flames for it, perhaps it's best to move on to talk to Jo using
private e-mail.

I haven't ignored it, I just haven't had the time to reply to it, as I
said in my other posting. There is a paragraph in the STinG docs dealing
with this.
