Shall i assume that the patch showed up fine i.e no crap like mime?
I still didnt get an echo back, did it make the list?

By mistake during the tutorial, i had the id at something like 321.
It registered fine but then listing the command showed it with a
different id than what i thought it should be. I think it chops off
all the bystes other than the LS one - which is not a good error
check.
The compiler will whine actually. If you ignore it (perhaps not seeing
the warning in a mass compile) it registers just fine.

cheers,
