- "Almost no programs use Wimp_ReportError"? Thinks... I can't think of any
- serious bit of software that doesn't use it! Of course, there is unfortunately
- no standard for little messages (like "You have not saved X file") and so
- they do vary a lot. Has some sort of "standard" been defined in RO3?

- Err, I thought I was civilised! I have just looked back and my posting
- seemed perfectly reasonable (and at least polite). Did you notice there
- were several smileys in it :-?

- I don't want this _discussion_ to degenerate into a "I know more swear
- words than you" competition before we've even started.
