Re[2]: Multiple Standard replies - pick list
Hi Peter no reason to be upset, is it? No, not really. At least I got to 59, while no youngster can assure he/she will. Happy birthday to you! :-)) Thanks Peter. Have a beer on me :) -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Here's what I would do: have a list of the quick templates on paper to quickly find the handle, type it in and hit ctrl + space. After all, your fingers are already on the keyboard when you edit a message... How about keeping a quick template that is a DOUBLE-SPACED list of your 30 quick templates. That way you'll only have to remember one handle, instead of 30. (It might be useful to make an extra entry at the end of the list, that will be easy to find later, perhaps a string of = signs.) Then, when you want to include a listed template in a message: 1. Type the list's handle, hit Ctrl+Space. 2. Find the handle of the template you really need and copy it. 3. Put the cursor at the end of the extra entry (remember the string of = signs), and hit Enter twice. 4. Paste the handle you copied, hit Ctrl+Space. 5. Highlight and delete the list, and the extra space below the end of the list. Just a thought. -- Daniel A.

Re: Multiple Standard replies - pick list
Hello Jon. At 9:27 AM on Friday, April 05, 2002 you wrote the following about [Multiple Standard replies - pick list]: Jon Each folder requires about 6 different template Jon reponses. Assuming that some of these different templates have some common denominators, I would create QT's for the common denominators assemble them in the appropriate reply templates via the %QINCLUDE macro. In that way you only have to write these sections once include them in as many replies as necessary. One way or another you're going to have to invest some time in setting this up but, presumably, once its done, its done. As you can see from the many responses you've rcvd, there are a # of approaches. Hopefully you'll find one that fits your bill. Good luck. -- Jan Rifkinson Ridgefield, CT USA TB!

Re: Multiple Standard replies - pick list
Not trying to beat a dead horse with suggestions, but as someone else mentioned you might want to consider a decent macro program. It will help in so many ways outside of The Bat!. The neat thing is with my personal favorite- PerfectKeyboard- you can organize all kinds of lists to pop up containing your macros from just a right click of the icon in the sys tray (or of course a keyboard shortcut:). So for example, in this case you just create your e-mail replies, name them, and then assign them to a group (maybe e-mail replies), then with just a right click of the icon you can select e-mail replies and a pop up box of your selection will appear and you just double click on the one you want and the text is put in the e-mail. Piece of cake. (And of course each reply could also be assigned a keyboard shortcut so if you ever got bold and wanted to remember a few you could always use the shortcut, vs. using the popup list).

quick menu (was: Multiple Standard replies - pick list)

JL perhaps using another application no, no ;) JL or is this a high priority feature that The Bat team should look JL at? [...] JL Any suggestions? Daniel had the idea in [1]. I found a much simpler way to get a quick menu for quick templates: Here is the quick template you should use for mails you have to reply to in different ways using some canned answers: __ %CLEAR mail from: %OFromName %OFromAddr to: %oToName %OToAddr subject: %osubj Standard reply template t_handle_s%cursor canned answer 1 description t_handle_1 canned answer 2 description handle_2 canned answer 3 description handle_3 canned answer 4 descriptiont_hdl_4 canned answer 5 description templ_handle_5 canned answer 6 description handle_06 canned answer 7 description t_handle_7 ...... ¯¯ Every time you reply to a message you'll see information about sender, receiver, subject and describtions and handles (= names) of all relevant templates you might want to use. Look at the %cursor macro. Assumed you created quick templates for all your canned answers you just have to move your cursor down to the wanted handle and finally press Ctrl+Space. This is really quick! (The handles must be aligned on right of course) This is even a better solution than selecting templates directly from the menu (Utilities - Insert quick template) because a) you can list only the templates you want and b) you can order, arrange etc. them as you like (with separators...). A canned answer template could look line this (%CLEAR is important!): __ %CLEAR%-Hello %AbOFromFirstName=%OFromFirstName, * you wrote: %QUOTES No problem, [...] -- Regards, Jon ¯¯ Maybe one could use such a quick menu as a folder template for some mailing lists (those without reply-to: and with the need for setting a to: in folder templates) and let the user choose between reply to list, reply to author etc.?
