Hello Tiny!

I know of what you speak! I had some issues with navigating  
OpenXP, especially how to enter a new message in an area, and  
the difference when using the TAB key and the S key (for  
Special).

If you are inclined to revisit OpenXP, I might be able to help.  
I needed help with it in the very beginning and got some fine  
direction from a fellow in the XPOINT echo.

Now, most of the usage has become second nature.

 T> It might yes.  I just like the fact that sem is using
 T> Squish so I can use any BBS tool to mess with the messages.

Don't forget that Sempoint supports Bwave packets, hence longer  
subject lines, hence no truncation.
