Okay, M$ *has* opened new horizons, hasn't it? They are
implementing all the idiotic ideas they find on their way, IMHO:-
) Like the results?
Second. I don't think Steve has chosen the right tone for his
recent postings to the list. It's just *my own* opinion, the official
one is up to the moderators.
Third. *I*, _personally_, like the current behaviour of the
Cursor macro. I *do* think it should work as it works right now.
And I *do* find it pretty consistent. Otherwise, this very list will
in a very short time be overfulled with complaints of the sort
"why did this damned program allow me to send the message,
when I hadn't yet filled in all the addresses I liked/changed the
subject appropriately/etc/etc/etc". This behaviour *should* be
documented, though (but this is completely other story,
anyhow).
Fourth. Let's finally stop this discussion, I (and _hopefully_
many others) have lots of other things to do other then reading
your flames, half of which I hardly understand. Either write in
"literal" English so that everyone could understand, or
communicate with each other. As I see it, this very list is pretty
multinational:-))
