I've tried to contact the guys at Stomped about this, but apparently


I've blundered with sendmail or something, since the console page hasn't


been updated. So I'm giving an announcement here.



I am NOT maintaining the console list any more. The list at Stomped is


valid for QTest, not for the shareware or the registered version. Please


do NOT contact me concerning the new keywords in versions 0.91 and up.



The reason for this is simple: I cannot get near a computer more than


once or twice a month until, say, March. One word: conscription. Nuff


said?



In addition, my email address is likely to change pretty soon. So thanks


for all the infinite 'Hey, you know of this playdemo command?'s, but I'd


rather not have anyone flooding my soon-to-be obsolete mailbox with


postings I really don't have time to reply.



There are plenty of other console lists out there that are more up to


date and also maintained. Please do me a favor and use them, not my


outdated version. Thanks.

PS. If any one of Stomped's maintainers reads this, please update the


console list at least to reflect its status as no longer maintained.


Sorry that I haven't been able to contact you directly.
