MacSoup Trial

[Nige Danton[_2_]]

I've been using MacSoup for the last couple of days and so far it's been
a real pleasure. It was straighforward to set up and it's suitably
snappy when reading the posts. I'm pleased with it so far. I'll give it
another couple of days and then register.

One query though. I can tag all of the posts in a thread by hitting
return and that then selects the last post in the thread - how do I
select the first unread post in the thread without using the cursor?

Thanks.

If you don't get a response here, it might be worth following-up to
uk.comp.sys.mac with your query.

There are lots of MacSoup fans and users there.

And there's the little matter of getting it to post to the right
newsgroup too ...

It's been a long time since I tried it, but it's not an application
that one would ever consider intuitive in any conventional use of the
word.

I'm a muppet. I was wondering what had happened to my post and sure
enough I'd posted it to the wrong group. Apologies to all.
