And if >it's too difficult to flip through a digest at 19,200 (or higher) baud using ^^^^^^ Thad, I don't know what you read news on but there are a lot of people out here that read news at 1200 baud and "flipping through" 200 plus messages at 1200 baud is not the most pleasant thing in thew world. Even here at work we are limited to 9600 baud, so if you live in a 19,200 baud or better world good for you, just remember you are a minority! To the writers of news software in general: is there a reader out there that allows a function like the "=" function but starting at the current article? When there are 200 plus articles it is a pain to have to go back to the beginning each time you want to view the subject line summary. To all a Happy New Year and to CBM, a prosperous one.
