Many, many moons ago, I wrote a program (in VB3 IIRC) which would take an
e-mail digest, and split it back out into its individual e-mails. I wrote
it because - just like yourself - I was having trouble keeping up with 2
lists (both VB related), and the digests were so inherently unusable. Maybe
it's time to root that out again, if I still have it, and update it to use
the CCtalk list...
Would there be much interest in that? Platform would be Windoze initially,
with maybe a Linux version to come if I can get my head around Kylix. I
might even be tempted to write a version for CBM PET :)
In fact, I might be better starting again - that way, I stand half a chance
of linking it into e-mail systems, etc. Maybe if you (gil) could send me a
couple of digests to muck about with; which would save me messing up the
system I've *finally* got configured almost the way I want it to be.
