I think you're one of many that feel that way. I'm another except I'm
almost to the point of throwing up my hands and saying if they put it in *AT
ALL* TB! is gone. The whole reason is I do not believe they can put it in and
not have it suck. I've seen entirely too many people try it and fail every
time. People who have a lot more experience and quite a few more years on
RITLABS (Uwashington, anyone? Pine come to mind?). They're also considering
starting to program a browser. Complete folly. Part of the reason why the
recent interview with ROITLABS has be hoping BMS gets on the ball with PMMail
or someone else comes out with a decent client soon. I'd really hate to have
to go back to mutt in different rxvts.
