- Hi, all!
-
- This is a note to let you know that WinTalk version 1.1 is now
- out. In all likelyhood, version 1.2 won't be too far off, since there
- are still some winsock-related bugs I'm chasing (PC-NFS, Novell,
- Microsoft). Version 1.1 fixes quite a few bugs, and adds some new
- features that should make using WinTalk more pleasant.
-
- The file WTALK11.ZIP is available for anonymous ftp from
- elf.com, and I'll be posting it to some of the archive sites as well
- (at least sunsite + cica).
-
- *** PLEASE NOTE FILENAME CHANGE! ***
-
- The executable is now called WTALK11.EXE. Sorry for the name
- change, but I hope you'll agree it's a much better policy to include
- version information in the filenames. Your old progman icons WILL
- NEED TO BE CHANGED to reflect the new .exe name.
-
- Thanks again to all who've helped with testing, debugging, and
- encouragement along the way. A portion of the README.1ST file
- follows...
-
- Enjoy!

- Subject: WinQVT/Net - Picking on details!
-
- I just downloaded the v3.97 of this fine program.
-
- I would like to pick on a two details:
- Why is the newsgroup name not filled in if you want to post to a empty newsgroup?
- From the newsgroup list, highlight a newsgroup with 'no unread articles',
- click the Post-button. The post article dialog-window pops up, and several boxes
- are filled in, but not the newsgroup!
- If the linelenght of a posting is to long for the window, one would like to stretch the
- window horisontally. After doing this the Read, Delete .. buttons are not redrawn correctly.
