Of course this might reduce platform independence, but hey: For a multi-threaded Emacs, I'd be willing to leave my homely home and switch to whatever system able offering it to me. MFG Frank -- Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
