Hi Alex,
>> Indeed. RIT aparently thought that thousands and thousands of >> editors were doing it all wrong and invented their own system. ASK> No, thats not what I meant. I understood you perfectly well. However, in this case precocious remarks are not going to change anything: Thousands of editors have established a certain way to handle things. One single editor uses another method. Are you seriously suggesting that the thousands are wrong and everyone speaking up against the weird system the lone one is using are intolerant boneheads? And, by the way: I am not even suggesting to just remove the current non-standard behaviour. I'm suggesting to make it optional. ASK> What you're saying would mean that the majority of TB users ASK> backs up your wish. Is that the case? :-) Apparently it is. On this list are very few people who have reported that they explicitly like RIT's way, many who don't care and have adjusted, and many again who do not like it. The majority is either untouched by the problem (meaning they don't care much either way) or in favour of the standard way of handling LFs. And these are the people on a TheBat-dedicated list who are per se more computer-literate than the average user, not to speak of TheBat-seasoned veterans. We can expect the percentage of every-day users that are confused by the RIT-way to be much higher. ASK> What keeps you from using the windows editor? It has none of the features I need for writing mail, e.g. no quote handling to speak of and above all a proportional font. MicroEd comes much closer to everyday needs and would be without a major hitch if there wasn't the artificial hinderance of the LF handling. -- MfG, Alto mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
