Uhhh, it's quite the opposite, isn't it?
The wiki page for the EOL extension clearly labels it as a feature of
last resort, which are essentially described as: "Don't use, the right
way is something else.", whereas my custom EOL checker script is simple,
works reliably is not "of last resort". ;-)
(I just wished the wiki page would make it clearer what the proper
alternatives to the EOL extension are.)
Best regards,
Carsten
