Just to be clear to those not using Xnews, the skip key will automagically scroll down past a block of quoted text each time you tap it. It leaves the last line of the quote in the view pane, for a bit of context. In case this stuff ever makes it to a wish list, there's a third option, which IIRC Gravity has. It's possible to hide most quoted text but leave a couple of lines from each quoted block visible; often this is enough to remind the reader of context. -- Mike TB! v1.60q Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
