Hm, top-posting?

Okay, so we have hieroglyph graphics in 1.2.1, and the update of the local opam 
directories is terse , and everything is fine.

I would have voted against the unicode graphics, they are not enough self explaining 
(I admit though using ✓ in my scripts).

While we are at it: opam has become a well working, very reliable package manager on 
*nix systems, thank you.
