I brought it up because in this sub thread, it is one of Alan's point
against my criticism about scratch, that emacs must have something
open. I said no, then you added more comments (quote: “Correct. ...
However ...”), then i gave more detail about the whole situation. I
mentioned that this does not constitute a reason against my comments
of *scratch* because that's Alan's original point, and your addition
can be construed to support his point.
As you know, newsgroup is a pretty much a free-for-all ground for
pissing fight among tech geekers. I'm trying to defend my turf!
If everyone is reasonable here, i might be too. If pissing fight and
aggressive argumentation is what i see, i try to be compatible.
