If they work fine for you it's okay. But for beginners it's probably
better to use packages like those from livna. Yeah, those beast have
bugs now and then, too. <whining>I try to fix them but I don't own
hardware to test and the feedback and help from the community is really
rare. That's frustrating.</whining> I'm glad that I soon get rid of this
crap.
