 Sorry, I am not that experienced in handling pr's, but hope to learn it. 
 I just want to explain, why I did this confusing thing.
 First I had some problems with copy and paste within my shar-outputs, so 
 I had to correct I think 3 or 4 pr and I thought it would be better not 
 to send to much pr's.
 Second problem with klineakconfig was, that I responded but I did not 
 CC'd to gnats because I thought I will get an answer from Will. I didn't 
 CC to gnats either because of the same reason like above. I just wanted 
 to lower traffic to gnats.
 But now I know that both were wrong, but I praise I will try to make it 
 better net time. Thanks for note. It's always good to learn.
 
 Greetings,
 Kay
