    Nah.  Wheyn I can type 22 faster than grabbing the mouse, C&P into a
different application, have to tell it what to do with a lousy interface, C&P
it back into the first application and continue on I fail to see how that can
be the case.  In fact, in my preferred editor know what I need to do?  Mark
the text, hit reflow, all paragraphs are reflowed just fine.

    Too bad they have conflicting views, don't they?

    You mean like it was *NEEDED* it to reformat those points and I did it
with the editor just fine?  I think you mistake "need" for "unwilling to
learn" and, at best, "want."  They "need" nothing of the sort aside from a
decent editor which TB! should not provide.
