    Hey August!

    Fidonet relies too much on cooperating anarchists. :D

    I have my doubts.

    Life is good,
    Maurice

    Hey Nicholas!

    The only time it actually becomes an issue (or even a topic) is
    when we mess around with it.

    Sounds like a plan to me. :-)

    Life is good,

    Hey Nicholas!

    Sadarbojoties anarhistiem, kas prot rakstīt latviešu valodā! :)

    Heh, heh. I've created a monster.

    This begs the question, is the windows version of vim anywhere near this capable?

    Did you throw "anarchists unite.." to your translator? I think the
    proper beginning would be: "Sadarbojoties anarhisti.." or..
    "anarhisti apvienojas.."

    No. I wrote "Cooperating anarchists that can write in Latvian!" But then translating it back to english in google translate says: "With the cooperation of anarchists who can write in Latvian!" So I don't know, Latvian = 1 - Me = 0. :)

    Droši vien "!trans" projekts ir parocīgs, bet es nezinu, vai tā izmantošana uzturētu ilgstošu sarunu.

    Most definitely!

    Regards,
    Nick

    I would imagine it's probably close. I believe Michiel uses it as an external editor for Golded, if you care enough to ask someone with experience with it.

    Shoot. I don't think there's any of those in the US, either! ;)

    The japanese one did not render.
    Looks to render just fine in Claws Mail on Windows 11, aside from the original when I was using slrn in a Linux console, using "Monospace Normal
    - 10", FYI. So maybe it is indeed Sylpheed specific.

    That works for me. :-)

    I still have some tests to pass before things get back to normal but so far there isn't anything fatal rearing it's ugly head ... yet. The weather lately gave me a good scare but other than some roof damage and 48 hour power outage I suvrived. Also managed to do roof repairs so I am appear to be good to go until the next violence from mother nature. It can and does happen at this time of year. :-(

    Het leven is goed,
