FWIW, Calibre is written in Python, not C++.
As for the yelling: I've stated similar things in the last thread we got about the calibre library file system: We regularly get threads like this. Most of the regular people browsing this forum are probably quite annoyed by them. Most of the people asking for these changes are... less than polite (sadly, I'd have to say that includes you). (Interestingly, although the threads almost always boil down to "code it yourself, if you care, and submit the patch, which Kovid has stated before he will not refuse", noone has done anything about it until now.) So, although the more-than-usual escalation in this thread may not have been solely your fault, try to see things from the perspective of having to go through the same discussion over and over and over again without any new results.
