It's unclear to me who you agree with. | It's too far from their real concerns, since most of them aren't | "fine points of context-dependent token recognition" aficionados. That's not what quoting is about, so what is this? | I just don't agree that exporting gui windows (or compiled object | code executable by remote guis, ie Active Security Breach) over | telecom backbones is necessarily the only solution to the problem. I must have missed something. Are anyone favoring this? #:Erik -- If this is not what you expected, please alter your expectations.
