(...) ROFL! Hey, I could've left Henry's mugshot up there, but I thought I'd try something a bit smaller. Now just imagine the confusion I could have caused by linking to the help pages. ;) (...) -Dave (who's done experimenting for the day) (22 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

(...) LOL, no... +X is what you'd have to write if you wanted to cajole a count-up list + into counting downward. If you just want a count-up list, you can use + without the X number, like this: + foo + bar + zot which results in: foo bar zot --Todd (22 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

(...) I'm not a big fan of it either, but for the past 4-1/2 years, a proportional spaced font has been causing no end to headaches for people.

(...) Of course. I guess it is easier for people (...) (22 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: Announcing FTX for discussion groups
 
(...) Uh, yeah! The uberposters would have to slow down to normal poster levels and wouldn't that be a drag. :) (...) I've got to congratulate you on the color subtleties as well. That's probably going to be the nicest feature as we continue to (...) (22 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: Announcing FTX for discussion groups
 
(...) I am not a fan of the fixed-width text. It looks like what we used to do in high school to meet that 3 page requirment for english reports when we only had a tad more than 2 pages typed ;) But seriously, IMHO it is harder to read, and kinda (...)

(...) Automatically preview? How? Like you mean, when you press the Post button without Previewing first, it automatically previews? ;-) I think possibly the Post button should maybe be removed or grayed out at first (before you click Preview) to (...)

  Re: Announcing FTX for discussion groups
 
(...) Yeah. Narf. Didn't it used to automatically do that? (...) I figured that out but thanks for the heads up anyway. The more I think about it, the more I think when used in moderation the new FTX tools will be very useful. I guess my initial (...) (22 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

(...) (*cough* *cough* always preview *cough* *cough* :-) You wrote a paragraph of type "-" (count-down list). There's only one item in the list, so it got the number one. --Todd (22 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
