   OK, here we go :-)   
      
   [CONS] The following can be safely removed:   
   -------------------------------------------   
      
   - internal editor: ^Y deletes UNDER the current line.   
      
   - limited to no extended-ascii support   
      
   - does not support incoming areafix lists that are in lowercase [*3]   
      
   - sometimes areafix is created for "0:8/15" address.   
      
   - received nodelists need manual intervention to \WinpointNL directory   
      
   - if you don't specify a domain, WinPoint adds "@" to the end of your AKA     
   [*4]   
      
   - when forwarding a post to another echo/area, the Extra/Options/     
   Templates for the defined header/footer do not get inserted into the new     
   message.   
      
   - when replying to a message (echo or netmail) templates (headers/footers)     
   do not get applied.   
      
   - reply window opens up full screen [*5]   
      
   - when message sort order is last "set" by Received date or Sent date and     
   newest to oldest, the program will always resort by oldest to newest the     
   next time the program is run.   
      
   - when message sort order is last "set" by Bytes and largest to smallest,     
   the program will always resort by smallest to largest the next time the     
   program is run.   
      
   Footnotes 3,4 and 5 can also be safely removed.   
      
   [CONS] I'm unsure about the following:   
   --------------------------------------   
      
   - no highlighting on a search match   
      
   - editor on reply removes 's on a line by line basis; therefore     
   ordered lists/lines/columnar text in incoming messages become reflowed     
   paragraphs.   
      
   And there you have it :-)   
      
   The [PROS] section also needs a bit of attention but I'll post my thoughts     
   in a separate message.   
      
   Regards,   
   Martin
