Me and good memory is these days a wee bit departing :              Bad enough looking at program code that I wrote a month or two ago and it is       now real fun going through code that was started in the 60's, updated in the        70       & 80's with a system total refresh around 2011 and now I have to go through it       to do system testing and update/write the manuals along with debugging any bad       code or missing links between sub systems.              I have put the whole lot of the Accounting package on SF but the changes I        made       pre 2016 which allows it to not only run using ISAM files but also with       Mysql/mariadb has to have some deep testing, although I did do all the basic       stuff as well as Functional testing sadly not full system and UAT.              I decided to take a break as I was on it every day for well over a year.              I had originally 3 - 4 programmers working on it with me just managing, now       it's just me.              So sue me, it's been a year or few :)              and I do not really have a very good excuse to myself.                     Vincent              --- Mageia Linux v8 X64/Mbse v1.0.8/GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: Air Applewood, The Linux Gateway to the UK & Eire (2:250/1)       SEEN-BY: 1/120 123 15/0 18/0 200 25/0 90/1 105/81 106/201 120/340       SEEN-BY: 123/0 25 131 180 200 755 129/305 330 331 135/300 138/146       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/10 218/700 222/2 226/30 227/114 229/110 111       SEEN-BY: 229/206 317 400 424 426 428 452 550 664 700 240/1120 250/0       SEEN-BY: 250/1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10 11 261/38 263/0 266/512 275/100 1000       SEEN-BY: 282/1038 292/854 299/6 301/1 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/11       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280 640/1321 712/848 1321 3634/0       SEEN-BY: 3634/12 15 27 50 119 5020/1042       PATH: 250/1 3634/12 153/7715 229/426           |
