File association for ".mbx" and ".nch" files?

File association for ".mbx" and ".nch" files?

Hi!

There should really not be a need for any association with those files.

They are "special" files that Internet Mail and Internet News
(respectively) creates/uses internally.  While you can view them with
Notepad or other text viewers, you certainly would not want to create an
"official" association with some other program as that would induce errors
when using the parent programs.

These files can be associated with any text editor.

Mr. Sky King:

By now, I have already associated the mbx files with Word.  Is there a way
UNassociate mbx files?

Thanks.
Ed

not sky but maybe it'll be ok,
using explorer, Vew / Options / File Types / scroll down the list
till you find the mbs type, click on it  and then use the remove on
the rght side.
desn't really hurt by being there except for making the association
list a little longer.

1. Help-msg on "P" and "postponed" file -- add "appends to postponed"

It might well be in the manual, but it also should be
added to the interactive HELP cmd, which types out
the bindings.

Add to "P" that it APPENDS to any existing "postponed" file.

WHY is that fact NOT "obvious"?

Because the user, at least this one, uses the
"head -50" (alias head50) cmd as a quick and easy
(and usually effective) way to see what's IN a file,
eg what's been put INTO a file (by some program).

So you don't see the appended stuff.

In fact, since the head-stuff hasn't changed, you're
not quite sure just *what* happened.

(Yeah, yeah, one *should* really use an alias that
types out the (1) date, (2) date/time NOW, some
"head" of the file, then (3) blankspace/dashed-lines,
then some (4) TAIL of the file.  But if we all did
what we "should" do, wouldn't it be a ...)

Thanks,

David
