processed: spam filter heuristic analysis disabled) From: "alexander koryagin" <koryagin@erec.ru> Hi, Anatoliy Kovalenko! How are you? on Thursday, 05 of April, I read your message to alexander koryagin about "Re: Program Quoter - you are very welcomed" <skipped> ak>> 60-80 symbols width is the most comfortable width for the text. We ak>> used it in books and etc. In short I've made a conclusion that it ak>> is not my text was 2/3 of your window -- it is your window was 1/3 ak>> wider than necessary. ;=) AK> No, I use an old notebook with 1280x800 pixel resolution and always AK> read texts in full screen (as seen on the screenshot). What's the AK> use for me to reduce the window to 1/2 screen or less? I believe AK> you don't resize MS WORD window to a column size of 1/2-1/3 of AK> screen when you type text, do you? I think the more text you see at AK> once, the better. Modern computers have even hgher resolution AK> screens, so formatting the text to 60 characters may become really AK> annoying because it will look as a tiny column, and all the rest AK> screen space will be left unused. -----my text not formatted---- IMHO You contradict yourself. When you write your message it is very often that quoted paragraphs constitute almost all the message. You just add your text below, like a comment. But, note, all the quoted paragraphs ARE ALWAYS FORMATTED by 70-80 symbols! It means that there is no sense to complain that some paragraphs are too narrow for your screen. No, it's your font too small! When you choose the side of the font you, probably, have to set such a size so QUOTED paragraphs would be seen at full screen length. Then it will be a perfect reading. It is logical. What's the use of making not-quoted text in the form of a single line if all the quoted paragraphs are formatted? ---------------------- -----my text formatted---- IMHO You contradict yourself.
