Hi G.,

Agreed, completely.

<grumble><mumble>  Might  I  humbly  suggest  you  use TB as an e-mail
client a while longer. The editor is one thing that suddenly leaps out
as  being  very  well  suited  to  the  job  it  does for the /type of
information/  it  works on. IMHO "Many other popular apps" do not have
to work on semi-formatted plain text in anything like the same way.

Just  a  suggestion.  We all know that the simple of addition of a new
"option"  switch  means  a  whole  plethora  of underlying conditional
coding  to  subvert  the  editor from its' designed purpose and we all
loath the "B" work ... say it with me: "Don't bloat The Bat!". :-)

Just my opinion.
