I think it is some kind of "remember the selected threads", but I don't use it. ok, after looking in the right help section, I see: T Add current thread to memorized commands (selection or killing). So I think this means you're adding a 'killfile' command to automatically select this thread upon group entry, right? I sometimes use M then Y if I'm trying to get things back later but ignore them for now. Just trying to learn new ways of using trn that might be better. >Would be nice if "q" would ask "are you sure?" or the like. I hope this would be optional. Though I understand that this is theoretically "data loss", it's not the same as literally typing a document for hours and losing that data. This kind of "loss" can be relatively easily gotten back to. But if I can turn it off, then add it, sure! Personally I hate these kinds of "are you sure you want to quit?" questions except as mentioned above (unsaved document changes). The obscure-to-most- people example that always sticks in my head is "Do you want to quit DicEd?" when quitting DicEd, an Apple IIGS icon editing program a friend of mine wrote maybe ugh, 17 years ago. That is, that's the one I think of when people talk about are you sure you want to quit dialogs. >Can I be the *only* trn-user (on this list) who's had this >happen? I'm not sure, but it's still below the bug I think is most important to fix -- the "jump to the end of the article list once you've read messages beyond some high percentage in the list".. I have to keep paging back pages if I am in a group with tons of messages if I want to read some threads then go back. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
