The day when cars require 4 TB raid controllers is nearing...

A couple of weeks ago, my wife asked me if I could make a slide show application that played music. This morning I showed her an almost finished product. She thinks I'm a genius. In truth, I developed the app over 4 years ago, and it has been languishing on my dev drive ever since, waiting for refactoring. I'm concerned that she'll start to think that all of the programming tasks she gives me will take two weeks or less. You know how management and the sales team can be in these situations...

Never ever let them know it was easy or that it can be done quickly. Now you're screwed my friend, everything she asks you to do will be expected to be done quickly and with minimal effort.

More irony - single men screw their brains out. On the other hand, married men despite being "screwed", find that the term has nothing to do with sex (unless the reference is to a lack of it).

True, but surely she ought to be used to that by now?

Well, besides the fact that you have to PAY for powerpoint, and I hate powerpoint, and I already have the code written...
WTF is up with everyone recommending powerpoint for everything?

It's up to you to negotiate your contract terms for proper compensation.

So: the solution.
Initially, not in two points is cuppa! (6)
Initially: OUTSET
Not in OUT
Two points SE
is cuppa T (*not* NICPIC - which is badly spelled NITPICK)
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Swine!
After the replies I guessed initially didn't mean initials and I had almost settled on the out part.
Another couple of minutes and I might have had it!
Well done.

I had that!
had SE but couldn't see the rest. was reading 'not in' as 'not' inside something.

It was April the First, so I tried to give it as many misleading CCC "triggers" as I could fit!

ImmDocNet is a commandline tool to generate HTML documentation based on intellisense comments in your code.
Irony - there is no intellisense commenting in the source code for this tool.
