More something for the new version than something to add to the
current version methinks.

Sadly, no. Macros in TB are for use in message creation templates

  Macroes in TB are not supposed to do that, and I use Macro Magic for
  such things; http://www.iolo.com (it's for PC). Macroes that deals with
  tasks like the ones you are mentioning are very fragile.

I've played with some filters but have done nothing with macros yet in
TB!.  Could a macro be created to do this?  IE: have the macro issue 10
ALT-DOWN ARROW commands?

Last time I played with macros was on my old Apple ][gs.  ;)  It could
have done it.  hehehe

Far from it.

That's the answer you give when you don't have an answer.  In what
other apsects of operation is 10+ key-hits considered a substitute for
one?

I'm enthusiastically aware of these keyboard commands.  However,
scrolling *half* a page (instead of a full one) is something I would
really like to see.  I find that scrolling a page at a time makes it
difficult to maintain context.

Some observations:

When you create a new address book, an appropriate storage file should
be suggested (based on the name).  I shouldn't have to naviage through
TB! dungeons and define my own file.

I love being able to scroll one line or one page of a message when the
focus is on the message list.  Being able to scroll *half* a page
would be the icing for me.

And, as always, having the ability to edit emails in an external
editor...

Regards,
Gavin
