Good evening Paul,

PQ> Caution!  You may have to adapt your working habits as you make this
PQ> latest evolutionary step of yours, my friend.  :)

I have already!

PQ> I have left a _lot_ of once-favourite programs in my wake over the
PQ> years  A lot.  The improvement has been remarkable but has taken far
PQ> too long, with the in-between steps so slowly introducing measurable
PQ> advancements.

Well, once I get this machine upgraded, I'll be back with my favourite
programs in OS/2. I has however, taken too a long time.

PQ> And then along came my journey with Linux over the last decade,
PQ> No wonder I am an older frail shadow of my former self!  ;)

I too have been interested in Linux, but the case sensitivity has been
the stumbling stone. Other than that, I wouldn't mind learning a new
command set.

PQ> Thank you.  The crickets are chirping, and the general hubbub of
PQ> this end of town is quieting from its industrious weekday high. 

Since a few years back I don't hear the crickets anymore, but yesterday
I thought I heard the flapping wings of a butterfly. And there's no bird
that I don't hear.

PQ> It's wet BTW, though the 78% humidity is bearable with the current
PQ> temp of 20.8C (the bureau reckons it feels like 22C).  For us,
PQ> anything over 20C is just fantastic.

That temperature is comfortable for us. It has been hovering between
20 - 22ø in the afternoons. The last day we had rain was the 15th,
except an occasional short shower now and then.

PQ> I have a cold or light flu (I've had this year's flu-shot), so I
PQ> feel somewhat lousy.  It's only temporary.

Summer colds are usually difficult to cure. If you take medicines, the
flu will be over in 14 days, if not it'll last 2 weeks.

On the T-bird frontier I had a session last night, without success, on
the stationary machine, but before I gave up I started up the laptop,
to see if the versions were the same, and then saw why I didn't succeed
on the stationary.

On the laptop I saw the left edge of the main T-bird window, with the
File, Edit etc commands and choices.

On the stationary, the mail editor completely covered the main window.
Tonight, I'll shove them apart, and make a new try. This time I'm gonna
succeed ;o).


Have a good nite,

Holger
