Indeed, I did. And I do use it some times. It is also the only thing that can save me in such situations when people send me crazy formatted emails. But I guess I don't have to say too much about it. Without better display/rendering engine in Emacs, it can never be compared with any of the modern web browsers, even can't catch up with links[1] in graphic mode. [1] http://links.twibright.com/ Alright, I don't want to start a flame war. I'm just a normal user who doesn't have time and energy to contribute to the Emacs community. All I can do is writing down a few sentences and hoping some nice devs who have time and energy might take a look at it and say, `Geez, it's a good idea and I can do it.' That said, Emacs is still my favourite. --=20 c/* __o/* <\ * (__ */\ <
