    The only thing that needs updating is your alledged brain.

    Agent is not there either. But ClamXAV is there.

    Which means nothing. Wikipedia does not list all computer software ever
    created by tiny companies. It does not have enough people to do that.

    So you are beginning your stalking of the author of Usenapp now? FYI, he has been warned about you.

    Good.

    Your post was an actual case where replying to the idiot troll was a
    GoodThing and beneficial to the common good.

    I'm not sure mine was. :)

    So a Usenapp entry could be created by any one of us who had the time and the knowledge. Andre would be best qualified of course but I doubt that he has the
    time. I probably have the time, but certainly do not have the knowledge.

    Any volunteers?

    Perhaps the OP could do this - after all he’s admitted to being a

    I did think of providing a stub, a starter page with very little
    information in it but there are those who have actually used Usenapp
    who may be better suited to the task.

    I only wanted to do it to annoy the resident pigeon.

    Andre would be best qualified of course but I doubt that he has the
    time.

    And then there's him, of course. But Andre may just be a little
    positively biased in his descriptions of the software. He may also
    know far too much and be a little too technical for Wiki-P.

    I probably have the time, but certainly do not have the knowledge.

    Any volunteers?

    Would a stub do for the time being?

    Hello again, Old John! 🙂

    Will you, please, encourage your chums here to initiate a Wikipedia
    entry for Usenapp?

    Thanks if you will.
