Oh, OK then, I won't tell you that I've emulated OLX 3.nn with 
msged.cfg, but I will tell you that I've also emulated its colour 
scheme, and shitty UIs aside, that degree of configurability is what 
makes a good program IMO.  ;-)

 AM> - if OLX was so good in the first place, then why are you

Mainly because I prefer single hot-keys to Alt-whatever keystrokes, 
and Msged can have every single key on the keyboard altered to suit 
the user's needs, in both read and edit modes, but then I'm sure you 
didn't want to hear that either.  ;-)

 AM> Sounds like masochism to me! - not to mention blind zealotry! 

Zealotry?  For what?  Msged or OS/2 (or both) ??  Nope, I'm just 
happy that unlike some others here, my point system works perfectly 
first time, every time, and if it ain't broke ...  ;-)

Regards, Bill
