Hi,


ST> It's not TB's behaviour, it's MicroEd's behaviour. If you don't
ST> like MicroEd's behaviour, you can use Windows editor.

The windows-editor doesn't know a thing about quote handling,
reformating or many other features intrinsic for writing emails.
Intrinsic to me, that is.


ST> The behaviour you want from MicroEd cannot be implemented there
ST> because it does not use "soft" linefeeds. If it will start using
ST> soft linefeeds, it will become Windows Editor and will have
ST> different functionality. That's what I'm trying to say.

I disagree. Take the editor of any other email-program: Every one of
those performs adequate in this matter, with no problems at all.

Besides, "soft-LF" most certainly cannot be the reason of the dilemma:
The problem is rather that MicroEd removes hard-CRs. If it would just
leave them where I type them there would not be a problem.

If I want to end the current line, I insert a LF to continue in the
next line. If after that I want an extra empty line, I insert an other
LF. If I do not want one, I don't. That's it. Why does MicroEd have to
make easy things that complex?


ST> There is a plan to write a new version of MicroEd that will
ST> support proportional fonts, Unicode and optional soft linefeeds,
ST> but the current volume of work just allocates this in distant
ST> future. :-(

Everything you mention is one of the reasons for me not to use the
Windows Editor. I don't need nor want all those design-options, I want
an editor that performs the basic email-tasks - and stops right there
without trying to second-guess me. MicroEd trys to be clever and do
things without being directed to, and that's what it shouldn't do.
