---˙First a confession: I used Souper/Yarn for OS/2 for several months, but
---˙when I moved things around on my drive, I couldn't get S/Y going again. I
---˙finally erased everything in disgust and went for the gold (expensive):
---˙Neologic News. Zillions of bells and whistles, tons of overhead, too
---˙much!
---˙
---˙So I'm back with my head hangin' in shame, hoping for some mercy.
---˙
---˙One of the most valuable things I had in my kill file was a filter for
---˙articles cross-posted to a bunch of groups. It was something like this:
---˙
---˙all {
---˙ header *.*, *.*, *.*, *.*, *.*, *.*
---˙ }
---˙
---˙But that doesn't work; it seems to kill everything.
---˙
---˙Is there a FAQ somewhere on the Internet that goes beyond the doc files
---˙that come with S/Y? They're not quite enough for me.
---˙
---˙I enjoyed the use of YEP as a go-between for Yarn and Tiny Editor, but I
---˙can't find it in hobbes or cdrom. Can you tell me where it is?
---˙
---˙Finally (yes!), I don't think I've ever seen one of my own messages posted
---˙to a group. I know some of them get out there, because I've had email
---˙confirmation. But I'd like to see them myself to be sure. Is there a
---˙switch or something so that I'll get them?
