Just rwo comments on your snipped post.
As to the header to Ronin, he posted a jiggy today, which I've just
finished, over in the quiet place where I hang out. You'll enjoy it.
Your second paragraph is, knowing you, not quite what you meant.
The person who posted a general warning about exe files was cosmos, a
long-time Fort veteran, a very generous poster of binaries (ain't many
left here!!!!!!), a very knowledgeable person computer-wise & a very
caring individual... so it's a bit much labelling him "an
over-cautious idiot". I trust you'll agree with me.
And yes, we have had very many exe files before. Waterdance's
slideshows, & several by Clogghopper, Obelix & B-W among others.
Nonetheless, a salutary warning about their well-documented dangers is
surely something that newcomers might well profit from.
