And I'd like a gold-plated commode. What gives anyone the impression that things like this are up for public input and democratic vote? This is one of the stupidest points that has ever been brought to the list. Live with the log message. It's functional as it is. It's been working for months. It was unclear to one guy who couldn't grok what it was trying to say. Don't make stupid suggestions as to what you'd like it to aesthetically appear as. Especially when you don't understand the implications of what you're asking for. And if you don't like it, feel free to edit the source code and compile your way to happiness. DS
