About yesterday's posting, in which I told Bob Reed that he was "arrogant" for giving someone else a bad time about their code: Perhaps I was overly harsh; if so I'd like to apologize to Bob. I certainly wouldn't ever have taken the time and effort to analyze and explain the original "anti-jaggie" code for everybody; I appreciate that Bob did do it. My problem is just that I hate to see anybody *ever* discouraged from making postings. That the poster is not satisfactorily expert in what they're talking about is an especially poor reason. Who ever is "expert"? Anyhow, I consider any posting which elicits information, such as a request for references, to be just moderately worthwhile for me to read. On the other hand, I find a posting which stimulates or continues a discussion to be the most worthwhile. By that standard, the original poster (Steve Hawley) obviously wins :-) Wish there were *more* give-and-take discussions on this group, and more code. Both apprentice-level and wizard-level. garry wiegand (garry%cadif-oak@cu-arpa.cs.cornell.edu)
