This might be a personal opinion, but if a tool as a feature which works, why use another tool to do the same thing? I think many Unix authors would agree with this principe. Btw, my original answer did not mean you MUST NOT do 2, I mainly wanted to point out that 1 exists, which obvisouly the OP did not know. -- DW _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
