It's in the "accint" Ms. Pixie.. the inflection.

Agreed.
Herb has done what many have tried in keeping up with the hashes
Agent has become after Version 2.
It is like swimming in a tide of jelly fish. You just cant get
through the mire.
Essentially if the newb cannot figure out Agent with a few prompts
from the Agent support group then they are shagged.
Forte did nobody a service when they added functions in Ver3+ but
that is another argument in another place.

Took me a while to work this out.. but I did get there, eventually :->

This is where the screenshots come in.. nobody is going to load
half a dozen newsreaders just to accommodate all the
variables.. well, nobody sane, that is.
I do believe some here have done just that in order to mimic
the work I do with one newsreader.. but that too is another
argument in another place :-D
