That's pretty cool.              However.. in Winpoint, if I just highlight the original block        (the first example in this message) the Reflow takes care of        the problem.       --        ../|ug       --- OpenXP 5.0.51        * Origin: My Westcoast Point (1:153/757.21)       SEEN-BY: 15/0 30/0 106/201 124/5016 129/331 134/100 153/0 757 7715       SEEN-BY: 203/0 221/0 1 6 229/110 317 426 428 664 700 240/1120 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 282/464 1038 292/854 8125 301/0 1 101 113 310/31       SEEN-BY: 317/3 320/219 335/364 341/66 234 396/45 460/58 712/848 920/1       SEEN-BY: 2452/250 5058/104       PATH: 153/757 280/464 301/1 229/426           |
