Sure. Me, I've been waiting for years. Not only the MicroEd doesn't get any improvement because of it's "nature", but neither the windows-like editor gets any of the necessary features you can find in MicroEd, like reformat quoting. The Bat has three editors and at least two of them are crippled (can't talk about the html one, since I don't use it). TB's programmers, supported by old fans, simply won't understand it. > After all these years, I would have expected it to be a little > more normal and easy to use. Me too.

Microed editor not respecting the "return"
When I use the Microed editor to write, I press "Enter" to start a new line, but as soon as I start typing, the typing continues on the previous line where I had left off. So it's a little frustrating. Some more info. The options I have enable for "Micro-ed specific options are: auto-wrap, auto-format, smart tabs, backspace unindents, find text at caret position. The reason I have settled on the options above is because of previous frustrations with Microed that I've written here about before. The main one being my problem with being able to automatically wordwrap lines after going back and editing lines in the middle of a message. Does anyone else run into these frustrations with microEd? After all these years, I would have expected it to be a little more normal and easy to use. I don't understand why this stuff happens or why it doesn't behave like any other editor for the simple stuff. I love the Bat tremendously, but these little things about microed keep coming up and they never seem to get fixed. __ Aram Current version is 4.2.6 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
