Hubris aside Roy, you still fail to address the

Rather than apologizing for your programming
failure, you berate him instead.

If I were in your position (and I have been), I
would have made an apology, then offered
a free upgrade once the inconsistency was
resolved.

Is your ego so fragile that it is more important
than your customer's satisfaction?

Apparently so...

Indeed, it seems our views on business ethics
are as opposite as are our views on the need
to model a bi-directional coaxial phasing line,
as well as the induced energy that would be
present at the reverse input of such a line, in
a dual element (critically coupled) broadside

Hi Chuck,
I'm sure you're justifiably proud of
your own programming efforts, and there's no reason
not to brag if you want to, but writing posts like this
only serves to reinforce the notion among some readers that
you've succumbed to the temptation to act like a
sanctimonious ass.
The EZNEC manual is a good thing to read if you're going
to use EZNEC. There aren't many technical instruction
manuals in the world as well written. If you've ever had
to use a manual such as the old GE Fanuc machine tool controller
instruction manual which was machine translated from Japanese to
some language that only superficially resembles English, you'll
know what I mean.
As for being able to write a program that anyone can pick
up and use without the need for written instruction, that will
always remain an unrealizable fantasy, since the user's
cognitive abilities are beyond the control of the program
designer.
There's a name for people who write posts full of
invidious little insults, and oblique little bitch-slaps,
but I won't use it here. You can bet, however, that some
of the people who read your post are going to use it, if
only to themselves.
