   If you're trying to get absolutely technical here, I said that a bash (or   
   batch) script that changes directories a few times and runs already compiled   
   programs, isn't programming.. and in my opinion, can't be ligitimately called   
   a "program," either. So, I never really wrote a program in the first place, in   
   order to call myself a programmer.   
      
   Therefore, your comparison is a wee bit off. Take it how you want, and if you   
   want to compare apples to *broccoli, that's up to you.   
      
   * Yes, I used broccoli instead of oranges to avoid you comparing the two as   
   both being fruit.
