That's literally true, because of that adjective "fully", but it's false in substance, because _everyone_ has the option to (gasp!) move the cursor before starting typing, and to delete the quoted parts that are not relevant to the reply. The real issue, I'm sorry top say, is that many people are lazy, and just start typing wherever their mailer puts the cursor. I don't know any way to get them to put the convenience of many readers above the convenience of one writer. > Trying to get users of this mailing list to write in a particular way > reminds me of herding cats. This I agree with, 100%. And not just this mailing list -- every mailing list, and every Usenet newsgroup. I have an opinion about top- versus bottom-posting, but I won't bother to express it here because people are going to continue doing what they do, no matter what anyone says. I do have one constructive suggestion: let's all allow this topic to die, because any minds that could be changed have been changed already. -- Regards, Stan Brown Tompkins County, New York, USA http://BrownMath.com http://OakRoadSystems.com _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
