Nor did Maarten recommend that. His original post was explicit on -connect(l l l l)-.

I didn't pay attention to the whole thread. I didn't explicitly recommend that you typed -connect(llll)-, although I should have foreseen that you would do that given previous posts. 

You need to write -connect(l l l l)- or -connect(l ..)-. 

See -help connectstyle- or -help stylelists-. 

Questions like these can be answered just by looking at the documentation.
