Yeah, o.k., `/x`. I lose. ;-) But I wonder - was the OP using `/x`?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Fascinating. I guess I'm more old-school than I thought. Now, `x` I could see. But `m` and `s`? You may as well say `i` and `e` while you're at it. Because it totally depends on what you're trying to do! We're building the house of the future together.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
