For example: in the 9r0 release is missed the new "file" command from
A. Costa. This is a "lacked action", i.e. deliberate
action. With this action my unconscious revealed the truth: following
Freud, I implicitily refused code better of mine!
A this argument I can oppose other: I added code from M. Angel,
T. Poindexter and other, all more ingenious compared my standard.
But, finally, it is that my email a full "lacked action", because
it shows I'm in need of explanations and excuses, so I'm surely guilty.
Ah, Freud, Great Man. Freud is from Austria, it's true?
