In the case of 'R', it is a command line s/w - on pull-down menus etc. + you have to specifically request ever output - so it makes you think.<br /><br />So with all this, obviosuly only the purists in the field use it - tell an average commerical guy and he'll run away!Sharan Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09295242114299220736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28115406.post-33096009537198822812006-10-17T05:20:00.000-04:002006-10-17T05:20:00.000-04:00Another thing:

In fact, i won't be surprised if some of the tired software folks participate in fora just to take all their frustration out...like "damn. what a stupid question...he's just like Rajiv at XYZ...let me give him a dose"Sharan Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09295242114299220736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28115406.post-35126587760715734322006-10-15T11:05:00.000-04:002006-10-15T11:05:00.000-04:00My respect for you increases with each post.
RTFM...My respect for you increases with each post.<br /><br />RTFM is something only forum people have the luxury of saying. People who sell software come home and tell war stories of stupid customers. Every third day.
