sorry for that html mail, im onthego,i sent it from phone
anyway here is the original message:

Ofcourse it does nothing

But why does it exist in the first place,
 
Why maintainer decided to comment it out without just deleting it?
Maybe there is some reason which i don't know
So i decided not to touch it
 
Anyway I'm new to this so just say what should i do now?
