Well, if you are online you can open a browser as well. You can copy text and print -- it is after all also just text in the posts in the forum when you use ctrl-c. When working posts in forum software there are very nice features for commenting posts of others where author and date is automatically inserted. The one thing that I find really nice in forums is the immediate overview of longer threads with forks on several levels. Its easy to follow the discussions. I have tried both forum and e-mail-list. Although e-mail-list can work, the forum is so much nicer in my opinion. > A true geek uses e-mail, no forums.

Nah, for it to have any success it would have to be an official forum endorsed and supported by the SQLite team. /Frank Missel _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
