Never having used OS/2, I don't care either way, but it's an almost philosphical question: should support for any Operating System be dropped if the usernumber falls below a certain number? I guess since OS/2's basically dead, it really doesn't matter. > b) the slit is currently a compile time option which I think is a little silly. > How many of you actually compile with the slit turned off?

At home I use the slit with one or two dockapps - at work I don't use the slit at all, and even though I never recompiled bb to exclude the slit (I would if I didn't use it at home, but can't as at work I don't want to have a copy of BB separate from the systemwide install), I think it's a good idea to have it be a compile-time option. The Toolbar I only use for the date's advanced capabilities (strftime) over bbdate. If the Toolbar could be a compile-time option[1], I'd leave it out and adjust bbdate to support strftime and construct my own Toolbar-lookalike from bbmail, bbdate and bbweather. In short: my vote is to keep both slit and toolbar as compile-time options. After all, BB *is* trying to be (watch out, used-up standard-argument) minimalist. -Jan [1] Yes, thre's a patch for that - I might try it some day. -- finger [EMAIL PROTECTED]
