Thanks Ray, in fact, you are right, I am a retired computer systems
analyst and came up through the ranks from big main frames to PCs. I
retired at about the time PCs began to take over. One of my prerequites
just before I retired was to make systems intuitive and not a mystery to
their users. I began on PCs at the command line level! Although GUI has
its advantages, its shortcomings far outway its advantages in my view!
Editing with GUI is a pain as you cannot block columns or sort in a
document as possible with old standby of Qedit. Attempting to manage
files is also a pain because of the design of Windows Explorer and the
immense size of hard drives these days. It seems that partitioning of
drives is not popular these days, but provided a means to better manage
directories (folders) and their contents. Enough of my ramblings, but I
just had to vent my feelings!
