I have read it, but it seems I have not read it with enough care
and forgot this acf-class stuff. Selective reading.... looking for
something,
not seeing what else is mentioned there.
I have looked for that blue line... and forgot that there was mentioned
a
acf-class.

So, I have not heard of acf-class, but read about it and then have
forgotten it. ;-)
