You must have just come back from a European vacation and been pissed at how
much they charged you at McDonalds. Try your hand at the dollar in Venezuela
and you'll really be incensed.

In some parts of the world $50 buys a house, and don't blame me for the
ignorant cunts who vote in this country. I vote Libertarian and would prefer
an armed revolution if all else fails. Why would you bring up politics in a
dev forum anyway, especially in the form of a nearly indecipherable run-on
sentence? Just say something like, "Backporting a GAMBAS 3 function to
GAMBAS 2 takes a long time and U.S. $50 isn't enough incentive for a busy
dev to take notice."

My offer's been increased by -$50, still payable by the method of your
choice, as ironically I found a dev elsewhere who is willing to help me at
no cost other than mutual good will.

I think tomorrow I'll go eat sushi with my wife and joke about how much it
would cost if we were eating it in some socialist shit-hole where plainly
the voters are more savvy and empowered.

Consider the request closed, and again, thank you Benoît for creating the
DrawAlpha method. I hope GAMBAS 3 speeds along towards release-readiness and
am looking forward to migrating my project to it.
