OT: correct spelling and such (was: i think my gpg is setup correctly..)



hi martin!

your friend dos? i guess you mean he/she does, do you? ;-)

> AGHGHHK!!!  SETUP IS NOT A VERB!

so tell him, what the verb is - if it is "set up" then the root (i.e. set) 
doesn't change it's form in different times; only in the 3. person singular, 
present tense: i/you/(s)he (or it)/we/they (did/have/had/will ...) set up ...
third person singular, present tense: she/he/it sets up (mutt correctly)

don't just criticize (is it with z or with s? *g*) - but make it better. :-)
next time, i'll write in spanish, german, italian, french ... - will _you_ 
understand me? the most important thing on the list is, that you understand, 
what people are asking, isn't it? can you disagree on that?
you _did_ understand, what he was asking, right? so everything should be fine, 
don't you think?! (with many, many smileys - i'm not flaming at all! ;-) )

btw: native speakers often make more mistakes than we do and you can't say, if 
there will be an entry "setup, verb" in tomorow's dictionaries, do you? :-)

cheerio
