+* Wishes from The Author
+*
+* The author wishes many people to use a word `Hacker' and a `Cracker'
+* correctly. This is just a WISH, not obligation, of course.
+*
+* The thought is based on
+*
+* RFC (Request For Comments) 1983 "Internet Users' Glossary",
+*
+* from which the sections about Hacker and Cracker are quoted below.
+*
+* cracker
+* A cracker is an individual who attempts to access computer systems
+* without authorization. These individuals are often malicious, as
+* opposed to hackers, and have many means at their disposal for
+* breaking into a system. See also: hacker, Computer Emergency
+* Response Team, Trojan Horse, virus, worm.
+*
+* hacker
+* A person who delights in having an intimate understanding of the
+* internal workings of a system, computers and computer networks in
+* particular. The term is often misused in a pejorative context,
+* where "cracker" would be the correct term. See also: cracker.
