Be sure to do the: F1 HELP for each item, to see which one you might want. 

I believe the "tagline" is added to the end of your message as it is 
being saved from the editor, so it has nothing to do with your text editor. 

You can have multiple tagline files (*.TAG). 
By using: 
  Tagline selection type  Prompt

Open DEFAULT.TAG with a text editor (NOT a document editor) and read the 
description of [ALTLIST]. 
Below that there is also a couple of lines: 
[COMMENT]Pressing ENTER on the line below will load a new tag file.
[ALTLIST]C:\BW\MORETAGS.TAG
[ALTLIST]C:\BW\MANYTAGS.TAG
[ALTLIST]C:\BW\MYTAGS.TAG
[ALTLIST]C:\BW\YOURTAGS.TAG
[ALTLIST]C:\BW\HISTAGS.TAG

Instead of putting a tagline at the bottom of your message, it will open 
a new tagline file for you to chose a tagline from. 

If you put: 

[ALTLIST]C:\BW\DEFAULT.TAG 

at the top (and/or bottom of that file, you can return to the original 
tagline file, and select a different one. 
That way you're not stuck if it turns out you chose the wrong file.
