That's my fave quote header..  use it most everywhere (except the FLAME echo)

 SS> maps itself to Alt-F12, so you'll need enhanced keyboard checking

 CS> Great!
 SS> heh.. did you like it?
 CS> Yezz... not something I'm going to use everyday but it's really neat.
I did it on a whim.. :)
 
 CS> BUT...  I didn't know how to work with that macro stuff until right

 CS> now coz' I'm working with Boxer/2 here as an external editor for
 CS> timEd; still have to register my (external) editor and QEdit/2 isn't
 CS> shareware.
 CS> Now I know how to work with macro's under QEdit I really don't know
 CS> which one to register:  QEdit/2 or Boxer/2... think Boxer is
 CS> cheaper... :) But do you have any more of this fancy stuff?
 SS> If you want some GREAT Qedit macros, FREQ QPACK10.UC2 from
 SS> 1:342/1022, it's a collection I have .. err.. collected over the
 SS> past year and a half of so.. great stuff in there.  It's really easy
 CS> Just did, a couple of times.... NO CARRIER. Will try it later.
Yes, I checked my mailer logs, and attempted to send you routed netmail on 
he
matter, but it got bounced by my NC (who doesn't allow routed netmail).:(
Anyways, hope you have it by the time you read this ..

 CS> Right, and it's possible to put some things, like smileys, under

 CS> QEdit?
Well, it depends.  Let's use your Ctrl-D macro as an example.  If you
programmed it into Qedit using the macro record function, then when you exit
Qedit it will lost.  However, if you cut the following line out of this
message:
^d 
...and paste that into your QCONFIG.DAT file, replacing whatever the ^d line
in there used to be, then run Qconfig and select "Keys" (which will load your
QCONFIG.DAT file and import the macros from it so that they exist each time
you start up Qedit) then save the changes it makes to your Q.EXE file, then
the next time (and every time, till you change it) you use up Qedit, you can
always hit control-d and make a  appear at the cursor! :) 
That was a lonnnng sentence.:)
 SS> re Qedit vs. Boxer : it's personal preference.. I personally haven't
 SS> even tried Boxer, since I fell in love with QEdit the day I
 SS> downloaded version 2.08 off a BBS long, long ago.:)
 CS> I've worked with them both; and since boxer/2 came in shareware the
 CS> choice was easy.  Now I've laid my hands on a QEdit clone for OS/2 by
 CS> the name of BEdit.  Almost the same with a couple of less features but
 CS> very workable. And free! :) Found that one accidentally coz' this
 CS> Belgian programmer made a very nice bbs prog for OS/2 (AcroBat/2) and
 CS> I'm having contact with him via the InterNet.
I could send you Qpack10.Uc2 via Internet email if that suits you.  It'll 
log
you up unless you can handle 200/300 k of UUencoded mail, though.
