@comcast.dca.giganews.com:
Not for x = y = -3.
-3 is very small for a positive number.
There is nothing in the subject header about anything being
positive.
Come on. It's specified in the OP's post.
Which was not included in the posting I saw, since MT_Newswatcher does
not display the entire thread, nor allow easy access to it.
Anything prior to the line of colons I entered above for this posting
did not appear on my screen.
Then you should get a real newsreader before making more comments
here, lest this happen again. Thunderbird works just fine, it's
free (and yes, in particular it works just find on Mac OS X.)
David, MTN is a fine newsreader for OS X.
That may very well be - I know nothing about MTN.
But saying it's a fine newsreader seems inconsistent with
Virgil's statement "MT_Newswatcher does
not display the entire thread, nor allow easy access to it".
It does not automatically display an entire thread, and while access to
it is possible, it is not trivial.
It will if you want it to.
As one normally does not need an entire thread, but only the last post,
the other advantages of MTN outweigh that minor disadvantage.
I simply save as unread all groups I subscribe to, every time I quit
MTN. Every time I launch MTN I get the most recent 1000 posts in any
group I open. Almost all threads in their entirety will stay in that
1000 for about a week. I frequently want to access posts previously
read, so this works well. (I even have a QuicKeys macro (keystroke
option-Q) that quits and saves in this manner.)
