1.49 beta?
I see that version 1.49 Beta 1 is already out. I downloaded it but could't see any new things except that the quick templates are now accessible from the Tools menu. Surely there is something else since there seems to be a substantial amount of extra code in the executable. Step by step we are progressing to version 1.99z. Perhaps then shall we catch a glimpse of the long-awaited version 2 which looks more and more like the software equivalent of the well-known Loch Ness monster ;-)) Best, Rémi --- Rémi Charles Pach Translation / Localization (English to French) Tel. / fax : +27 31 266 3341 E-fax (US) : +1 509 356-1214 E-fax (UK) : +44 (0) 870-124-4530 http://www.abc-translations.net --- -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

I am using the internal PGP implementation but I come a cropper when I try to import a key.

Re: Outgoing attachments
Hello Marck others on TBUDL following this thread,
Sunday, December 31, 2000, you answered George's question regarding
the use of Alt+L for left formatting text (Alt+J for justifying):
MDP Position the cursor in a quoted block of text (preferably using
MDP cursor keys rather than mouse - if you do use the mouse you may
MDP still need to jog the caret left or right to overcome a
MDP "niggle") and press Alt-L to reflow the text in that paragraph.
MDP Quotation marking is preserved during the reflow (TB is very
MDP good at that).
Regarding Marck's last sentence: As long as a space exists after the
carrot. Otherwise, it will mix it into the text.
To reformat: In order to avoid TB!'s not responding (something that
may occur when the cursor is at the upper left of a paragraph, in
particular), instead of using the arrow keys, I found that using the
"end" key ("fin" on my keyboard), is a sure way to guarantee that
lt+L takes effect. I also find it faster and IAC, have it down pat by
now.
In this context, I WOULD also very much like to see 2 additional
features implemented soon.
1).- For the formatting to include multiple, selected paragraphs;
and
2).- Please implement the windows command ctrl + up or down arrow,
to move from paragraph to paragraph. (This would would be an
acceptable alternative to the above, as it would permit
relatively rapid reformatting. It is also a standard and basic
windows command that definitively should have been implemented
some time ago, along with the ctrl + left or right arrow and
the ctrl + beginning or end already supported).
Best regards,
Douglas Hinds
For The Bat! developers,
I'm using The Bat! Version 1.42
Serial Number 5E3E1CD8
under Windows 95 4.0 Build 950 .
There features I would like to see in your program are mentioned
above.
I will upgrade TB! versions as soon as I can get hold of a new (or
good used), bigger and compatible hard disk, in case that what
I've asked for is already there.
Windows stays as is (with in version upgrades when needed), at
least on this early 1996 computer, which just keeps on working.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On 01 January, 2001, 3:29 PM, I saw Manfred's comments made on Mon, 1 Jan 2001 20:17:04 +, and thought I'd add my $0.02 worth: George The signature is mine and it stays no matter what. This is a disturbing attitude to have. I'd assume that we write messages for others to read and if *anyone* has problems with our messages, we should take it very seriously, unless the complainant is writing from a terminal in a padded cell. If one person complains, then it's very likely that others, like myself in this case, also have a problem but are perhaps being less vocal about it. I've been pondering the issue and was about to say something on it, but Tony beat me to it. George As for the size of the PGP signature block, I have little George control. I grant you that. George And finally, in the nicest way possible, I doubt the extra 5k George is killing anyone. However, this is all a little off subject George though and probably should have never been posted to the list. There are two concepts here that you should consider. The first is that every byte counts and they eventually accumulate. The other is that if you're allowed a liberty, then everyone else should be granted the same liberties and we should be prepared to face the consequences of everyone taking such liberties. Let's deal with the 5k extra that shouldn't kill anyone. That extra 5k's per each of your message is sent to each and every member of this list. 5Kb's extra to 500 members equals 2.5MB's of extra, unnecessary information transfer across the network. That's for just one of your messages. What if everyone decides to have a signature like yours???!!! I also keep the list traffic on my hard drive and shudder at the thought of unnecessary space wastage because everyone decides to make their signatures longer than their messages. I have about 3 TBUDL/TBBETA messages here. 3 x 5kb is 150 MB. I'll leave the rest to your imagination. It's therefore not surprising, that this has been addressed in the RFC's netiquette guidelines which state that your signature should be no more than 6 lines long. This is more than adequate for you to convey the information you think is important enough to be transmitted with *each and every* message that you send. Your signature is 17 lines long and this doesn't include the PGP digital signature block. I am therefore requesting that for these lists, TBUDL and TBBETA, you cut down the length of your signatures and please realize that there are practical issues of wasted bandwidth behind such a request and that we merely take pleasure out of harassing and censoring your behaviour. ME IMHO PGP signing is OK for *important* stuff. The QA's on this list ME are hardly *that* important to get signed. ME And I think Tony has a point here. Moderators please... I personally pgp sign my messages because I'm a list moderator and also because of the potential nature of my posts, this one being a prime example. While we, the moderators, do agree that digitally signing posts to the list is probably unnecessary, we don't believe in stifling the memberships freedom in practicing message authentication. This is becoming an increasingly important issue in the internet community. Members are therefore free to digitally sign their messages.

Re: Plain text by default?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I thought I'd comment on Kevin's contribution to the list, sent on Mon, 1 Jan 2001 21:38:36 +: K I always thought it was 4 lines. Upon rechecking the RFC's (RFC 1855), you're right on this. I was mixing it up with an on-line netiquette guideline. Here's an excerpt that covers most of what we commonly request here: - Be brief without being overly terse. When replying to a message, include enough original material to be understood but no more. It is extremely bad form to simply reply to a message by including all the previous message: edit out all the irrelevant material. - Limit line length to fewer than 65 characters and end a line with a carriage return. - Mail should have a subject heading which reflects the content of the message. - If you include a signature keep it short. Rule of thumb is no longer than 4 lines. Remember that many people pay for connectivity by the minute, and the longer your message is, the more they pay. For the pedantic, we explicitly request that those who post for help include in their signatures information about their TB! version and what OS they're running, so the line/s used to convey this aren't counted. ;=) K I hope this happens but many of those with long sigs do tend to get K extremely offended when asked to chop their sigs to a more reasonable K length. Well, it's all about courtesy and maintaining the peace. Many with long signatures don't realize that it can be offending or annoying to others. This is what the list rules on posting style and conduct serve to address. It's just as necessary to enforce such guidelines as it is to enforce road traffic laws or rules of conduct in any social setting. If anyone is offended when such a request is made of them, then so be it. We will not condone breaches of the list rules of conduct. There's no reason to accept such behaviour and many reasons not to. - -- @~@@~@ | A.

Re: Plain text by default?
Hello George others on TBUDL following this interesting thread, Monday, January 01, 2001, you stated regarding the length of your signatures and the practical issues of wasted bandwidth involved: GFS I'll stop signing my messages to the list with PGP. That would help me hold out until the Guadalajara wholesalers start selling hard disks again. (I've got 1.92 of space left at the moment, and no way to get a hold of a new drive, so I hope it's soon). GFS Sorry you feel that you should address a new paid owner this GFS way. Allie is simply fulfilling the responsibility he assumed when he accepted the role of TBUDL moderator. (Before that, he uas just a TB! user and contributor, just like the rest of us (albeit deeper into the works of TB! than most - but perhaps that's to be expected from a surgeon). If he hadn't asked you (as tactfully as possible, at that), Marck or Syafril would have. These policies were not devised to abuse you or anyone else, and I feel certain that most TBUDL subscribers appreciate their validity and are in agreement. Having paid for TB! (who hasn't?), doesn't give anyone the right to ignore the simple rules of netiquette (and part of common courtesy) that are upheld on TBUDL and elsewhere. Frankly, I wish ALL the lists I subscribe to were as well moderated as this one. GFS I will keep it in mind when shopping again. That sounds like a threat. Why pout! Each and every buyer is by far the party receiving the most benefit where using TB! is concerned. And all of us benefit from having access to TBUDL (and appreciate the way TBUDL is moderated). Entendido? GFS Irregardless, the only time I posted was to help others on the GFS list with my knowledge. And we are all highly appreciate of that. GFS Therefor I'll just sit back and listen to your loss. Please! anything but that. GFS Sorry you don't agree with me. George, you can be sure we all agree with you, even when you're wrong.

Re: Plain text by default?
Hi George, I've followed this thread, but at this juncture, I can't help putting in my 0.02 worth. My connection has recently improved by some 50% to avarage at around 1.5K/s. Receiving 100 to 200 messages per day, 5K more or less per messages does still make a difference over here. On Mon, 1 Jan 2001 16:22:13 -0800GMT (02/01/2001, 08:22 +0800GMT), George F. Schoelles wrote: GFS I'll stop signing my messages to the list with PGP. This was not asked of you - even though it was suggested to use another kind of key, because the modern keys are shorter (in terms of size in bytes). I personally appreciate your kind consideration, but I was hit over the head the other day when I mentioned that PGP-signing list postings wasn't necessary. It is the consent on this list that it is OK, and nobody will bash you for a PGP sig. ;-) GFS Sorry you feel that you should address a new paid owner this way. GFS I will keep it in mind when shopping again. Also kindly keep in mind that I have paid for the product as much as you have. I find a highly efficient user's mailing list in which people consider each others' bandwidth problems (and not everybody is on a 24/7 ADSL or leased-line connection, some even have to pay per minute!), a list where the list members have regard for each others' needs - which do not necessarily include a 17-line sig (not counting the PGP sig). I, for one, will keep the other list members' consideration in mind when shopping again. :-) -- Cheers, Thomas.
