I'm very gratefull for that fix, as I've always had problems reading yellow 
text on a white background. Thanks.

One comment though, and this is the continual problem that occurs on mailing 
lists with "top posting".

A mailing list is different to speaking on a one to one basis using Instant 
messenger for instance. With IM, its no problem top posting. Your friend has 
asked a question, and you provide an answer. By contrast though a mailing 
list is seen by, perhaps hundreds of people. 

As an example. Paul Cooper has asked a question, and you have replied before 
his question, and I have just put my reply after your reply to Paul.

Can you imagine how difficult this would be if you had bought a book that was 
written in this way?

Your reply to Paul would be chapter 1.

My reply to you would be chapter 2.

Paul's original question is now chapter 3, and yet he started the thread. he 
should be in reality chapter 1 of this fictional book.

So, and I'm probably wasting my time here, as this top posting problem has 
being going on for so long, but here goes.

Paul Cooper puts a question (chapter 1).  You reply with an answer, and 
putting your answer after his question (chapter 2).  I then reply to your 
answer, putting my answer after your answer to Paul (chapter 3), and so on.

Take these comments however you like, but giving an answer before a question, 
doesn't make much sense.

Don't take this too seriously, although it's nice too follow the correct 
procedure. I'm on the Debian mailing list, and there is a Debian forum that 
links to the Debian mailing list. I see nondescript subject lines arriving on 
the mailing list, followed by a message that says something like "yes that 
works ok"

How in the hell do you make any sense out of something like that???

Perhaps I'm just getting a bit old, and am not up to speed, but on the other 
hand, perhaps we should just think a bit more before replying to postings, 
whether that's to forums, or mailing lists.

My 2ยข worth of suggestions.

Nigel.
