By the way, as a followup to the previous message, I will note
that the number of responses for sources is encouraging.  More
importantly, I see this as a confirmation of the blather that
I shoved on the net the other day about the importance of having
others' source code to look at.  My code isn't better than anyone
else's; if you don't make yours available because you're shy
about having others see it, don't be.  Maybe you'll be criticized
(I have been), but by putting it in the public eye, you avail yourself
of the valuable insights of others, when they point out problems,
or better solutions.  If you hide your code, you never receive this
(yes, sometimes painful) benefit.

You think I put case-ignore in Grep because I ever use it?  Nope.
It's because other people said "you should put in case-ignore
because it's a good idea."  Tabs, too.

'nuff said.
