There is this thing called       “web search” which, while it might not be as convenient as integrated       OS-level package search, should still lead you in the right direction,       eventually.              Also, I didn’t need to actually download your reference file, at       least, not as a separate manual step: I just pointed loimpress       directly at the URL, and it loaded immediately.              > SO why did it just finally get solved in 2026?              It was likely “solved” long before, it’s just nobody else could be       bothered with your pointless challenge.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
