It’s true that for tables, FTX fails its objective of making formatted text readable in plain text.


How does this look for a compromise?

Name, Regular, Sale Price, Set

Clickits

Memo Minis 3.99 2.00 7503

Racers

Hot Flasher Bike 9.99 5.00 8355

Duplo

Friendly Police Car 6.99 3.50 3698

Funny Giraffe 9.99 5.00 3512

I like it. However, I was just trying FTX---Had no idea what the fallout would be.

Going by past years, this is Tom’s baby--he’s the one that has posted the specials 99.9 percent of the weekly phone specials and, besides my ‘one-off’ (which I now regret), we probably should stick to his formatting. I know I can’t commit to doing this every Wednesday (though I could probably cover Tom in the event of his being flooded out and having no internet service for a while--hope things are going well for you, Tom)

Anyway, I’ll leave it in the hands of the guy wuo usually does this. Next Wednesday, if Tom isn’t back on-line yet, I’ll go back to the text based method
