Seconded, thirded, fourthed and fifthed. For those using a GUI email reader, select the unnecessary text with your mouse or keyboard, and press the backspace or delete key. See, not hard, was it? I find myself deleting more and more emails unread. After paging down through two or three pages of quoting, without seeing a single new word, I just give up and press delete. There is absolutely no reason to include the entire history of the discussion every single time you post. Take a little bit of care in your responses please -- you're learning to be a programmer, you're supposed to be smarter and more capable than the average Myspacer or Facebooker. Thank you. -- Steven D'Aprano _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
