Erm, I didn't think you could use anything "non zero" for true. It was either 1 or
0. o_O

[View Quote] Wow? I would think it's safe to assume that even the most unrecent newsreaders can
intepret HTML. I know it's horribly evil to post in HTML (and I agree), but my god
it's not horrible to have a newsreader that can just in case. Especially if you want
to waste ~ another 2kb's to ask for it to be reposted?

This would help serve to discourage the widespread use of HTML posting in newsgroups.

Well the main purpose of discouraging it was because of it's bulky size. Both the
HTML version and the text version were 3kb's. Nothing so wrong as that? You view
larger webpages everyday...

> If I wanted an HTML-capable newsreader, I would have one; that would mean I'd have
one, not two, newsreaders.

Then why do people care so much if they want to read something that they're not
capable of because they decided against using the one that's prebuilt? I am just
saying that it wasn't that bad of an HTML post and it didn't completely zap anyones
bandwidth... still having one that CAN is a good thing just in case someone idiot
decides to put important information.

> Shred was kind enough to repost; you weren't, and instead decided to comment on
FreeAgent's capabilities. My post was hardly anywhere near 2KB, let alone even 1KB.

Why would I repost something that was already posted twice. I just checked here for
the new post so obviously it would've been quite silly for me to do so. There's no
point in starting another thread... just let it die and I will to. I was just asking
the question I didn't need extra comments from the peanut gallery. Once it's
answered, then ok.

> If you want to argue the logicality of why or why not an HTML interpreter should be
included in Free Agent and other newsreaders, then take your arguements to Forte (and
other non-HTML interpreting newsreader writers) and the thousands or millions of
people who use their software, not me.

I'm sure it's not quite millions. I think instead of making users read garbidly goup
they should at least remove the HTML code from the post. Even that's easier than an
interpreter.

Your logic is incosistant though. If someone posts in HTML they most likely have a
reader that can read HTML. Therefore it's not stopping anyone from reading it but
those who don't have a newsreader that can interpret it. Most likely they'll say
"too bad, so sad" and keep doing it. The best thing you can do is make one that
strips HTML from a post so you can read the plaintext. If you're still downloading
the message it's not doing anything in the saving bandwidth department.

Only in beta do you download a whole group of different upgrades. It's not really a
patch system per se from what I can tell, it just replaces all the key files with the
newer versions? Maybe my knowledge of what patches are is backwards.
