A> Question #1: A> What are the differences between MicroEd and Plain Windows? Mainly the wrapping and the free caret (in MicroEd you can place the cursor anywhere and start typing, with the Windows editor you need to insert the correct number of empty lines and the correct number of spaces) Also the Windows editor starts a new line at the beginning and MicroEd starts it at the same 'tab' as the previous line. More like this and this A> Question #2: A> What does Auto-Format do? Please be detailed, I don't get it. I don't know everything. ;-) It doesn't like new lines, when hit enter and continue typing it continues on the same line. To really start a new line you've got to start a new paragraph: hit enter twice so you've got an empty line in between. When you start typing in the middle of some text it keeps on wrapping everything correctly instead of what you experience with question 5. A> Question #3: A> Why can't the paragraphs wrap to the window size rather than a certain A> number of characters? That way your contact will see what you see as the size of his window and yours don't have to be the same. Kinda nice for tables and such. It's also for compatibility with text mode systems and prevents problems with PGP for instance. You can set the length of the lines yourself. A> Question #4: A> Sometimes I write an email, it looks fine. But when the other person A> recieves it, the wrapping is all crazy with alternating long/short A> lines. As if one of my lines was being wrapped before it should be A> and the leftover spills over to the next line. If your contact sees things different from what you see then he's probably using a font that doesn't have all characters with the same width. (Google for proportional and non-proportional fonts) TB alligns with spaces and if your contact sees those with a different width...

Is this a MicroEd thing, or does it happen with the A> Windows editor also? It doesn't happen with the Windows editor, nor does it happen when you enable auto-format.
