Talk:Gunpoint

Delete and revert on 22 March 2007

Reasons for restoring deleted lines:-

• Metaphorical uses for other sorts of compulsion, for example /* Gunpoint */ as a comment in a C program to say that an inserted line is necessary::

This meaning of "gunpoint" is fairly common.

• Gunpoint, a 1966 movie western starring Audie Murphy
• Gunpoint, a band

I see no reason not to keep this line: Wikipedia has infinity pages about routine music bands.

• gunpoint-3d.com, a company that produces or stores CGI models of armored military weapons

I am not part of this firm and me putting this link in is not spam.
