Hi, Doug.
DF>>AP> But it did make some promises, and it is keeping them.
DF>>What were these promises? Only one with regard to the desktop, that I
DF>>remember, was that they were "de-emphasizing" it.
True.  But I recall messages way back when I first started reading
comp.os.geos and this echo in late 1993 and early 1994 by some of the
GWREPs that it was their understanding that the company was not going
to do additional development of the desktop but that it was going to
arrange for a republisher to handle the desktop and any enhancements
to it, and I vaguely recall some stuff about it in the Rotundas that
were posted on comp.os.geos in those days.  I don't save old mail
packets but for a very short time, so I can't quote chapter and verse
or even identify which GWREP said what or when.
DF>>Where/when was this commitment made?
I can't answer this question for the reason stated above.  I just
have a recollection that it was made and disseminated either on the
Internet newsgroup or here.
DF>>It's been a while since I looked at SLMR, but doesn't it have twit
DF>>filter capability?
Not my version.  I have the original one that is now so old that it
is freeware.   It's easy to use and I have enjoyed it so I've not
gotten around to trying anything else.
DF>>Sam is x-posting Helmar's work here!
Thanks for advising me.  I'll just read the index to the echomail first
and skip over those posts.  Seeing them once in comp.os.geos was more
than enough for me.
