I asked for justified, matter-of-fact response.  Why do you feel that 
those demo programs were somehow bad?  Hostility without grounds usually 
leads to a sardonic response, as the response by me.

Ah, if you say that this Java code from GNU EMACS and the NetBeans is 
ill-formatted, then maybe you could change to being constructive and 
tell the newsgroup in which ways it is ill-formatted.

"....who is evidently not interested in improving themselves...."
That is an unsubstantiated allegation, as my circles would call it.
