Yep, I "speak" a bit, but "urgency"/misery make it so. If "der Mann" means you mean I am a man, yes, it's correct. (-: But if it's another specific therm than I don't get it.

In this sense an implementation of UTF-8 would drastically raise the level of sale/use/popularity. (I bet that most TB users are so called "advanced users" or even "geeks", therefore ones who would need "desperately" such a feature as UTF-8 is.) I don't believe that work on a HTML editor is what should get some priority, in this, market, sense and in general. ... Especially for it is "developed" in a such way that rather produces some awkward impressions, than anything else. (This HTML editor is, for instance, a perfect antipode to the TB's Plain Text Editor, by its quality and functionality.) - -- Mica PGP key uploaded at: <http://pgp.mit.edu/> once just before breakfast -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFA+sy79q62QPd3XuIRAmttAJ44dMkeAlLocKVJgjmbibJMD+vITgCfcGRi uhMdG+alBHFjvD1BcpQJHP4= =x05A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
