Hi Eric,

I won't comment on what you said above, since I already said it in my
previous post. :-)

I do not think of Arachne as a bloated program; it probably rather
suffers from the opposite problem. ;-)

But I think any program should at least be able to install over its
previous versions without problems. Until recently, Arachne was not, and
that was a bug that deserved fixing. Now it is gone, and so you all can
stop crying "The wolf! The wolf!". ;-)

I really do not care whether a program fits on a single floppy as long
as it fits on a single hard disk. ;-)

So long,
