Remember that I just answered a post to Wael, who spread around the strange philosophy, that a good GUI would be a GUI, which reduces the number of time losses... (Why do we use time controls at all, may be we should abandon them in the future?) You seem to be the godfather of this philosophy, after looking into some of your posts? I wonder how you came to that conclusion? Moreover I am much too lazy for writing long messages and even more for reading long messages. Wish you a nice Xmas week, Guenther
