Maybe they will when you ask you ask them nicely. :-)

Most programs are written with a particular purpose in
mind. But anyone who has shared programs with the world
quickly comes to realize that either (A) people can't
read the documentation, or (B) people could care less
about the documentation and want to use the program for
their own purposes anyway. It's an eye-opening experience.

Over time you get a little better at anticipating how
people are going to use/abuse your programs and you make
allowances for that in your coding. But only a savant could
see all the possibilities. :-)

Cheers,

David
