The script feature looks interesting. I supposed it is designed to        simplify repeated tasks? Do you use it - much?              Regarding "Editable right-click menus" ..what is that, really?              I note that the Toolbar is "editable" to one's preferences, but I don't        think you mean that.                      MF>[APoint] CONS        MF>-------------        MF>Nodelist browser barfs when more than one nodelist/pointlist        MF>installed.        MF>Internal editor does not indent quoted text.              DONE.              The multiple nodelist problem is a big one IMHO.              The "not indent quoted text" is a prime example of something cosmetic        only. ;)                      MF>[Apoint] CONS        MF>-------------        MF>"- JAM support broken.
