From: Nige Danton on 15 Jun 2010 07:53 I've been using MacSoup for the last few days and so far it's been a real pleasure to use. It was straightforward to set up and it's suitably snappy when reading the posts. I'll give it another couple of days and then register. One query though: I can tag all of the posts in a thread for reading by hitting return, but that then also selects the last post in the thread - how do select the first unread post in thread without using the cursor? Thanks. -- email: replace the obvious with g_m_a_i_l --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: news(a)netfront.net ---

Are you sure? When I hit Return in an article list, it tags all the articles in that thread, and then moves onto the next thread. Hitting Space will open the first tagged article. Daniele

The graphical thread display is really good isn't it. I'm wondering why I didn't try MacSoup ages ago. -- email: replace the obvious with g_m_a_i_l --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: news(a)netfront.net ---

Yes, based on some comments I'd read I'd formed the impression that it could be a bit fiddly to set up and the interface was not particularly friendly. But based on use so far I'm very happy with it. -- Nige Danton email: replace the obvious with g_m_a_i_l --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: news(a)netfront.net --- |
