So many people are now using minimal tagbits that it will be quite easy to change the default when the time is ripe. If a Good Reason (tm) for defaulting minimal-tagbits comes, I'll be all for them. Examples of Good Reasons are Kyle's new dumper and Olivier's UCS-4 text manipulation. -- Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic(a)srce.hr&gt; | Student at FER Zagreb, Croatia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- Try to use "ad nauseam" at least once per flame. It doesn't mean anything; but it gives that polished feel to your postings.
