Yes, I have to agree with you there, Cream is great if you need an
editor with more windows-notepad-like behaviour, or can't remember
all the arcane vim commands.
And you'll notice from the headers that I'm currently trying slrn,
following the discussion on here. It's certainly a lot faster than
using Pine for news, and more friendly than trn4, which is very
light on doucmentation. I'm having a characterset issue at the
moment, the UKP sign not displaying correctly. Also I need to read
the manual on setting the heading list format; appart from this
it seems good!
