CompuServe Messages

No problem, Steven. I don't know when either of the two editors came along, but I've been here for quite a number of years (long enough to still say PPN instead of UID), and we've had both editors for as long as I can remember. It used to be that the default SIG (there I go again, I mean "FORUM") editor was the line-oriented one, always. I remember having to painfully go through every forum and reset it to FILGE on every new account I started (I used to do lots of demos, and therefore started many new accounts). Recently, CIS has given us a global editor option in our profiles, and each forum can be set for either LINEEDIT, EDIT, or PROFILE; makes it much nicer. If you saw some comment about Whap! in a forum message, I wouldn't be surprised if someone just casually said "library 16". I didn't doubt your word when you said that initially, but when I read your new message saying you'd seen it again, I thought I'd better check. It turns out there are difficulties on both sides of the counter. What you're referring to as a message is in fact an announcement (called a "bulletin" until the last major CIS software update; why do they keep renaming everything?). We normally reserve "message" to mean messages posted in the message base (I.E., this is a message). This causes NO problems whatsoever, so don't worry about it… but it's the reason I didn't check into this yesterday: I thought you saw someone say Whap! was in <continued>
