    How many times should i tell you that there is no problem in your
    correction, but the WAY you corrected is the problem. You never seem
    to understand this simple thing. All you are doing over here is just
    beating around the bush without acknowledging your mistakes. All I need
    is your "EXPLANATION" on "your following statements" and thats it.

  3. If you are a native English speaker, then you behave below your competence
    level as you have learned in school how to write proper English. Is that so
    hard to understand? You cut away the part about the non-native English
    speaker whom I left the possibility that he or she had picked up this
    syntax from whatever source and did not know better.

    I think it is clear to anybody what this means? I tell you that it can be
    fun to 'jive' up your language, but that syntax is not proper in
    comp.cad.cadence as it make it more difficult to read whatever you want to
    say. Communication is depending on each side of the channel being able to
    understand what is written, and to understand you one have not only to know
    how to write English, but also how each separate letter is pronounced when
    spelling. As you still keep your native language a secret, I will have to
    use my own native as a base to explain to you that the way people
    communicate with SMS is seriously destroying any language just to be able
    to type messages fast and save space. That is actually not the real problem
    as long as it stays on SMS. Any amateur radio enthusiast can tell a story
    about saving time and space, but the jargon is kept within the society.

    Problems start when somebody, like you, Kamesh, insist on using a "society
    syntax" in places where they don't belong, like usenet, where computers
    with full-featured keyboards are available. In most cases it also turns out
    that people using SMS syntax are not willing to accept the fact that they
    are being made aware of their misunderstanding.

    Bridging conversations, a great way to write EXCEL files on Linux/UNIX
    is to output not as pure ASCII text (*.txt) but as comma separated
    values (*.csv).

    An advantage of CSV is MS Excel accepts csv files without question.
    (With a *.txt file, questions are asked & variously answered by users.)

    Here's an example of a csv file of 9 records of 3 fields each.
    This should read nicely in Excel without any questions asked.

    London,British English,Standard English
    San Jose"," CA,Merr'-i-can Slanguage,US English
    "Barbados, Barbados",Creole,Caribbean English
    New Delhi,South Asian English,Indian English
    Manitoba,Commonwealth English,Canadian English
    Grafton,Americanisation English,Australian English
    Hokitika,Newzild,New Zealand English
    Yuxian,Chinglish,Chinese English
    comp.cad.cadence,Contact English,Pidgin English


    Note: If the field contains commas, use double quotes as shown above.
