This is a high-volume list. There's no way around that, but there is essentially no spam (if that's what you mean by "unsolicited") getting through the mailing list server. If you use a mailer that understands threads and you enable that feature, the list will be much more comprehensible. I believe all the common Linux-based mailers support threads. Under Windows, Eudora and the Mozilla mailers (Mozilla Mail and Thunderbird) support threads, but notably (I'd say notoriously) Outlook and Outlook Express do not, to the eternal frustration of anyone who must participate in mail dialogs that include such users... Beyond that, there's no software that will alter the submissions created by the list's users. I'll grant you quoting is far too liberal here, but unless the list participants themselves enforce a more conservative quoting regimen, then individual posts will continue to be highly redundant within a given topic thread. > I am still using windows because I do not know how to setup my SuSE > 9.1 to connect to the internet.

Whatever information you used to set up these accounts under Windows is essentially the same you'll use to set up Linux counterparts. You mention SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional. This list is for people participating in the pre-release testing for SuSE Linux 10.0. That fundamentally alters the nature of the exchange here. Perhaps you should subscribe to SuSE-Linux-E. But keep in mind the volume there is comparable to that seen on this list. > Which programming language does Linux use for creating applications? > I noticed that the openCD has C and C++ header files, a compiler for > C and C++.

Linux programming can be done in C, C++, Fortran, Lisp, Scheme, C#, Java, Perl, Python, Ruby, awk, TCL/Tk, shell (various) and more. As far as Java goes, the Sun, Gnu and IBM compilers are all available. > Best regards, > Thembelihle Tshabalala Good luck.
