The most important keyboard stroke to remember though is `?` - as it
gives all the strokes, lightening the memory load!

On the subject of the `style` of the forum though, i would have to say
follow Raul: Not only is he very useful, and prolific, but he
accurately reflects the mainstream of this group, and usually only
varies where it is beneficial.

Other forums use different styles to much more chaotic result. But
keeping faithful, as much as possible, to the original posters content
keep the thread much more intelligible, and archivable.

Click the "Gear" icon in the upper right corner of the Gmail page in
your browser. Click "Settings", and the "General" tab. then look for
"Keyboard Shortcuts" and set "keyboard shortcuts on".

Warning: there are LOTS of keyboard shortcuts. Click on the "Learn
More" link to see them all.

Where do you find keyboard settings?

Actually Brian did more than type 'r' (or hit the 'reply' button wo
keystrokes) -  he edited out part of Vijays message. How this is done
affects all those attempting to archive the stream.

The "r" for reply only works if you have turned on the "keyboard shortcuts"
in your Gmail settings.

Vijay,

I use gmail (too) and I just press the "r" key to reply.

Thanks Bob, Linda, and especially Alexander for your explanations and
thoughts. I've been learning J for a few months now and I'm only now
getting familiar with forks and trains. And oh, I also didn't know
that there was a FAQ. I second Alexander's suggestion of making it a
little more prominent.

On a side note, how do I reply to a specific message. I've never
participated in a mailing list before. Once again, thanks for great
answers.

Vijay.
