Claws also has a problem about how it does quotes. A single       quote character should be followed by a space, but 'nested' or stacked       quotes should not have 'extra' spaces like that.              So, I'm stuck w/ Tb deficiencies because I won't accept such as Claws       deficiencies; it is a matter of 'choice'. Tb is also 'bloated' because       of its policy of considering itself an html composer/renderer email       agent which marries it to that moz engine.              Back to your topic; does Marek participate in any 'online' activities       (blogs, forums) related to his interest in languages?              --       Mike Easter              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
