I don't come here for the essays about things I'm not interested in, thanks!

So you were not interested in it at all, all you wanted to express was a "You are wrong, I'm right, kthxbai"? Cool, another reason to avoid you. :D

What exactly did I say that was wrong?

That quote was directed at me, by you. :P If you are interested in why I claimed what I claimed, you would read my reasoning. If you are not interested, that is fair enough, too. It does not matter much in particular.

Yes, what I wrote was "Presumably because the author is comfortable with python and it is easy to do string manipulation with."
I'm still not sure why this got you so involved.

It is not that specific comment that got me involved.
As I have said a couple of times, it is fair enough that he is comfortable with Python or that he decided to use it for whatever reasons.
At any rate, I cannot come back to this thread anymore. :P

That's a shame, this thread has been fascinating.
