I am with Christof on this. Yes, I DO like the new narrow toolbar.
I also really need to see the full URL line and the full Title line on a big screen.
If I can't have both, then I will be staying with Arachne 1.66 (1.67 kept
having Xswap problems and re-booting my computer).
Pity, because 1.68 really does seem to go faster for surfing. But I
also need a work horse for business (needs long lines). Long URL lines
easily outweighs the attraction of the narrow toolbar.

I can't get 1024x800 on my machine. 800x600 is the very best I can do.
What on earth are you flying, Or ? Some sort of inter-planetary starship ?
Otherwise, A1.68 installed easily, as always, and was quickly set up
the way I like it, with my custom BOOKMARK.HTM and Home Page and all
other normal furnishings, fittings and fixtures.
One worry, though. My free memory (580 kb) is down to 102 kb off-line,
and 64 kb (red) when on-line.
With A 1.66 it is 104 kb off line and 74 (black) on-line.
I think we will be needing that smaller ?ppp.exe or whatever its
called.
Regards,
Ron
