I second the motion, Carl!

Yep. When a freelancer takes a job with CUP, they use _my_ keyboard and _my_
altkeys.sav and _my_ help files. If they don't want to do that, I can't help
them if they have technical questions. And frankly I don't even remember
what's out of the box stuff in those files and what I've modified.

One of 'em is the most dangerous XyWriter of all: knows more than most, but
not as much as she thinks she does. There was the time when _she_ had her
temporary file as c:\xy\temp while mine is c:\xy\tmp. And she was using my
Columbia startup.int file. Uh huh, uh huh.

Cheers!
