Huh?? Suggest you look at the first message in this thread from one of your users. As far as my taking a "cursory glace at" JR-Comm, it isn't something that I see being readily available and, by your own admission, it probably wouldn't suit my needs (132 columns, remember?) As far as the last clause in your sentence above, I haven't the slightest idea what point you're trying to make; you've been on Usenet long-enough (again by your own admission) to realize that EVERYTHING should be taken with a grain of salt (and, in jest, is why I made the reference to sci.skeptic and talk.origins before :-) It's just not practical on an Amiga to have 132 character lines. I disagree, since I do it often enough for it to be a useful option. :-) >I hope, for your sake and with your attitude, you never post to >sci.skeptic or talk.origins! :-) :-) No, I've got more important things to do with my life. But, thanks for looking out for me... -jack- OK! :-) Glad to read you're not thin-skinned like some of the people who DO post to those two newsgroups. Thad P.S. Where can one find JR-Comm?
