OK. Thanks.

Now that's we (/ I) can't live anymore without both of them, it'd clearly be
great having a unified documentation.

Simply great. It caused me some minutes to understand why tables were reported
as not found...

That's already great.

Less important, even if nice when it will be there.

Why only preserving comment lines?  Why couldn't we imagine having the code
somewhere and the results much farther?  Even twice the results -- that'd be a
work around for the echo command.

Thanks a lot. I'll update tomorrow morning and test all of this.

*Thank you very much*. Reporting is quite easy. Making it happen much less.
Thanks a lot for your continuous help, and quick resolution of my problems.

Best regards,
