Kristian,

Thanks you very much for pointing out the (striking) similarity between the
scripts.  I think the link you pointed was created in Aug 1997.

I really haven't seen/copied that page (Hell, I can't even read German), but I
assure you, that it wasn't my fault.  


You can, if you want drop a line to Ben Okopnik and say to include a copyright
notice or something.  And I'll do that if I release a v2 of the script.

I wasn't aware of the page, and I haven't copied anything.  Sorry if I hurt
anyone's feelings...



Thank you once again for pointing out the link.  I believe it was rather a
coincidence.
