I can understand that ,-)

I did recived some source code from Tobias Ernst with the implementation of
FSC-0054, and I have rip-it-off and it is now in msged, and i properly will
be in version 4.30. (Thanks to Tobias for that).

I hope so...

no problem.

;-) There should be a new documentation with msged 4.30 (Don't worry I
don't write it, so you might actual understand it ,-)
