AM> For this to work, you'll need to be using TB! v2.12 or later.

When downloading 2.12, the smileys addressed in default.msl are
included without the necessity of downloading additional files from
the site you mention. There is a problem with this:

In the office, I use the RTV as default, as the majority of incoming
messages are in HTML. A message came in advising seafreight rates +
BAF + PSS + GRR. Now "GRR" means General Rate Restoration in my
industry (BAF is Bunker Adjustment Fee and PSS is Peak Season
Surcharge). Instead of "GRR", an "angry" smiley was shown.

This is not good: "smileys" should be surrounded by colons or - better
- triangular brackets and otherwise not recognised, if they are purely
text.

THE RED LION pub at Lacock in Wiltshire offers whisky-flavoured
condoms for sale. The small print at the bottom of the machine
advises: "Warning-Do not drive while using this product."
