This is a wonderful site. Thanks for providing
it. I will have to get used to the new dual
window system, though, I find myself sitting,
waiting for the screen to change and wondering why
nothing is happening. It took me awhile to figure
out that there were two windows open and that the
message I was trying to retrieve was available in
the other window. After I read a message, it isn't
highlighted on the main list window, as it was
when I paged back to the main list after reading
each message.As much I like this site, I do wish the editor was
was 'friendlier'. One long line of text is
cumbersome, for many reasons. I think most people
need to see what they've written when they are
composing. Cursoring back to see what has been
said is awkward; that's why I edit, myself. Also,
one big, long line of text annoys me (smile),
probably, because this isn't the way I am accustomed
to viewing text (paragraphs). They also annoy
me because they confuse me. They make my eyes roll
in my head; they seem to make the task of reading
harder than it should be. If it isn't too much
trouble, can you make your editor more 'friendly'?If you can't change the editor, can you change the
size of the edit box, making it a little wider for
those of us who do our own editing? Thanks.
