Oops! Yes, I forgot to change the number of lines! I got in a hurry,
and there you go...

Thanks for fixing stuff. I would like to see what you end up with. The
RPM speed cruise is coming, sorry for taking so long...

Okay, yes, especially #3 and #4 (and I look forward to reading the
updates to the docs, you have new information?). When I do get around

Anyway, sorry for taking so long to write patches...
