Well, as someone who wasn't always keyboard centric and who uses toolbars in applications that aren't often used and hence will not commit to memory the keyboard shortcuts; it's nice to be able to arrange the toolbar the way I wish. An uncluttered toolbar, especially one that contains only the buttons that I use, arranged in a way I prefer, is a lot more comfortable for me to use. I enjoyed using Agent that much more since I could reduce its toolbar to just 4 buttons, nicely spaced (keyboard otherwise). I could then get at the buttons quickly and easily.

Does this mean that better than Outlook Express isn't needed or that they wouldn't appreciate better if they saw it? It's often just a matter of taste. Some couldn't care less about something while others do. - -- -=Allie C Martin=- List Moderator | TB! v1.61 | Windows XP Pro PGP/GPG Public Key: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=2B0717E2 _________________________________________________________________ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEARECAAYFAj0upS8ACgkQV8nrYCsHF+Jb3ACgnh91lJCN2IOBpCuV+YVVRJ4M 8vQAoIyr9ASSjhw0VKeb9TVTGCl120jf =jq2Z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60q FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/
