Chastised?  No.... not at all.  It is just that we cannot help with
proprietary software because we can't see the code to fix it.

I asked him to try open source software that can be debugged.  Barring
doing that, take his problem to the vendor.

Perhaps my wording was a bit harsh.  Sometimes I do that.  I apologize
if I offended anyone.
