I was referring to the personality who 'contributed' the paragraph about
leaving the list and googling, which would appear to be obvious.
It seems every time a newbie or otherwise inexperienced personality
arrives on this list with a genuine query, there is some supercilious
idiot who needs a petit form of ego gratification which comes from the
opportunity to say RTFM, or equivalent.
You are doing very well in your efforts to assist somebody who has a
genuine query, and has the initiative to do something about their
situation on an active level. I saw no reason for the shallow reaction
that somebody saw fit to post that did nothing but detract from the
situation. The comment was not aimed at you.
