Hey my name no longer has dash but a number 1 in front of it!?

Yeah. Narf. Didn’t it used to automatically do that?
|
Automatically preview? How? Like you mean, when you press the Post button
without Previewing first, it automatically previews? ;-)

Maybe I am thinking of paypal where the first time you hit submit it takes you
to the reveiw page to verify everthing then the submit button at the bottom
actually lets you send your money.

I think possibly the Post button should maybe be removed or grayed out
at first (before you click Preview) to cut down on cowboy-posting. :-) But
it probably ought to be a per-user setting, because I can already hear people
complaining about it slowing them down. :-)

Of course. I guess it is easier for people (myself included) to not be block
heads and hit the preview button first.

I figured that out but thanks for the heads up anyway.

Perhaps it might be wise for me to remove the “-” (count-down list) paragraph
type altogether. It was only in there for symmetry with “+” (count-up list).
Who really uses that anyway?
Since the count-up list can take an optional index number, a count-down list
could still be written manually as:
+3 foo
+2 bar
+1 zot
which results in:
- foo
- bar
- zot
|
Um... how is typing +X any easier than just typing X. anyway? I guess that’s
just a cool thing to do for the sake of a cool thing to do. :-)

| (...) 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 (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
