I have huge problems with templates because there are many confusing options and difficult to find documentation. So, I'm just going to list my several questions on templates that have been bugging me:
There's a "Common Templates" section in the quick templates dialog. But every template also has a checkbox for "share with other accounts". This is confusing. What's the difference? How does each work? In the same dialog, for each template, there are check boxes for "Use For" "New Messages", "Reply Messages", and "Forward messages". However, in each of your Account properties, you have to set up templates for all these categories anyway. Again, what's the difference, and how is each one meant to be used? Furthermore, why do i even have to check those options?! Whenever I want to use a quick template inside another template, I can always do so with the QINCLUDE function, right? I don't have to check those boxes at all. Very, very confusing. Is there somewhere that lists all the template functions in some kind of organized fashion? I'm talking all the functions and how to use them? For example, the ISSIGNATURE command makes no sense to me whatsoever. Thanks for all the advice. I love the Bat, but there seriously needs to be a more convenient place to find answers to these questions besides mailing lists newsgroups. A good help file would be ideal. but I understand if that's not the developer's priority. At least a normal web forum or something. Newsgroups and mailing lists are old-school. I still haven't set up my newsreader to be able to reply to messages...all I can do is create a new message right now. OK, I'm done! -- AC ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.1.11 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
