I'd love that feature too. But that either requires a damn good script, or that everybody uses the same .changes format. Given that we had that a rather use- and resultless discussion about a "human readable" vs "machine parsable" format, I am not sure whether we can arrive there. I like Bill's "dchanges" and use it. Do I dream when I think we could establish the use of posting PGP signed dchanges output? -- Dirk Eddelb|ttel http://qed.econ.queensu.ca/~edd
