I don't think I saw the repost; or maybe you posted in different wording and I didn't recognize the congruence of the messages. As well, I don't remember seeing a 1-2 key solution as you mention here. This could all be because I failed to receive a message or two; or because I read them inattentively and didn't gather the details. In any case I've already deleted all of the past of this conversation, so I can't investigate :( Anyway, I'm not very interested in what/why that happened, I chalk it up to the vagaries of asynchronous multi-way communications and don't worry about it. What I *am* interested in is to hear the details of how you solved this down to a 1-key action! >Bela< PS: I prefer not to receive direct copies of list postings. They exacerbate the asyncronicity problem. Posts laundered through the list are generally in correct perceptual order since each reply is not provoked until the replier receives the message he's replying to. Mail to my mailbox is more likely to be mis-ordered because the mail host's connection is less reliable, leading the sending mail daemons to invoke their delay algorithms -- which are different for every sending host. Plus, I read the different mailboxes with different frequencies. _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
