Is that the ‘christ’ part of your nick getting some play, Tom? :)
Hey, it’s when I start signing with †☧ᶥſt that you’ll really have to worry. 😇

I just couldn’t help myself. His mendicant petitions were so subclubious that ... well ... er ... how ’bout I thought something simple might work better? Surely they couldn’t be worse!

Yeah yeah, okay. You were supposed to laugh.

But it’s true that I personally have always found tbl a lot easier than HTML tables, which are kinda nightmarish. But what do you expect? So is all markup language. I could sing you a slow song of DocBook — call it a dirge — whose lamentations would strike dumb your tongue and rip your heart asunder, and you would claw out your eyes to save them from every having to look at it again.

And it’s coming soon to a bookstore near you. 🙆
