That about the pills too?
Maybe he did not notice but I ANSWERED his original post providing him
with info / links to documentation.
Only subsequent "Before you jump for joy" thing
in his typical "I know something that you don't know but I won't tell
you, but you know it is very very bad" style
caused my response that maybe he should stay at version 4.80.
If he has a question there is a support channel.
It is written in the FOOTER of each and every message on this list.
Surprisingly he almost does not write to support at all. instead, he
chooses to send each and every his question to the list, killing my
productivity on useless so called "discussion",
wasting my time with things that are pretty basic and easily can be
solved by Marcin (support).
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
