You'll need a swig while doing it ;-)

If Perl is the code of refreshment, swig on!  :-,

I'm not sure this will get all of them.  It does introduce some non-sig
text.

<snipped code>

How much? too much to throw out manually?

Hmm (with an empty stare). Consider that spamcake directives never have
parentheses surrounding them (but I've put some parenthetical lines after my
name a few times), and my name always starts with a hyphen first as in, -Tom
McD., which would make a good starting point to look for the spamcake.

Also that I don't know/can't run Perl, unless there's some way I can download
a free editor/environment somewhere, so I can't do it myself unless I write
some other code in Borland ObjectPal (which I don't like all that much, and
which no one else here seems to know; perhaps coincidentally :-). I guess I'm
willing to learn Perl though, especially since it seems to be web-friendly.
