Thanks Nikky,

I add info to Rufus Plugin history notes...

Well Rufus author miss the fact that :
 "vast majority" of good users who like to use command line first make a research to find an answer and if not found ask,
 "vast majority" of regular users only ask again and again and again ....... without any research  :lol: (even without reading UI  :lol: )
   Democracy is not working well for good users on such cases.   :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well Life.  :cool:
