Hi

This is really a nice new feature in 1.7.1 but I have a minor issue:

When I see online .nfo or .txt attachments sometimes they appear wrong since often those files in various newsgroup contain ASCII art or ANSI art so they need a fixed font and a fixed line length to show properly.


For Ansi arts you should use instead a font compatible with old OEM/DOS Terminal font.


I tried the Font&Color option on Edit Menu but as I selected Terminal font or a fixed spaced font like Courier, all the fonts in all the panes of UE has been changed (I still need to figure out how to reset the fonts to default values, now the newsgroup pane looks really awful but at least the .NFO files now show correct).

Basically is possible to set the font and the line lenght for the online attachments pane only ?

And is there a reset fonts options somewhere ? :cry:

basically the text is readable, maybe to add an option to use a fixed width font for attachments shown inline, i made a note here to think it over.

Google (Msg Subj) is all the way down under Advanced options. A double-click for "Go to URL" would be extremely nice :)

Or just allow me to hightlight the URL and put Google on the right-click menu but not so deep. :)
