Sure. > A reader decides "Where was I last time", then would intuitively > move forward. Yes, that's one way to look at it - it is the way I, and everybody else, have been doing. Another way to look at it is, "Let me have a look if there's anything new on faq/current.html - I open the page and, *without* moving forward, can see straight away if something new has been added. No? Then I move on with my life without scrolling down or doing anything else apart from opening the page". Given OpenBSD's rapid development, new entries on faq/current.html appear quite frequently - I'm only thinking of the tiny amount of time saved each time. > The proposal doesn't make sense to me. Duly noted :^) Raf
