I think they should start not a thread, but a whole new alt.anti-yenc
newsgroup. Then we'd have some peace to enjoy these wonderful aviation images .... On Tue, 31 Jul 2007 23:55:57 +0200, Adhominem wrote: Bernd Rosemeier wrote: Yes and without any *yenc ****!

The main objection to it is you need a separate decoder/encoder to use it for download/uploads. There are always a few that like to make their excuses for using something the mainstram doesn't use and most of the time it's so they can feel superior, but superior to what is anyone's guess. For computer viewing and every-day printing needs, it's no improvement over anything. Google will give you lots of info onthe pros & cons of it. Pop` |

Thus, less overhead with yenc, faster downloads or better picture quality at same download size possible. supported by the mainstream clients. The main objection to it is you need a separate decoder/encoder to use it for download/uploads. All dedicated newsgroup clients can AFAIK read it, the combined Mail/News-Client Office Express and Mozilla Thunderbird seemingly can't.

Same question... ;-( Francois LFBO It's just another protocol for encapsulating images, nothing more, and isn't supported by the mainstream clients. Nonsense. Agent is one of the most popular newsreaders, certainly mainstream, and requires no separate decoder or encoder. I guess you define mainstream as "anything Pop uses." There are always a few that like to make their excuses for using something the mainstram doesn't use and most of the time it's so they can feel superior, but superior to what is anyone's guess. For computer viewing and every-day printing needs, it's no improvement over anything. yEnc was not intended to do anything with viewing or printing, but only with encoded file sze. In fact, the improvement in transmitted file size with yEnc is so significant that in groups devoted to multimedia or audio, where files are quite large even before encoding, yEnc is so dominant that without yEnc capability you'd miss most of the files. Google will give you lots of info onthe pros & cons of it. You ought to also look at the pros and cons of UU--the encoding scheme you apparently favor. All it has going for it is that many people use it--it does nothing better than yEnc, yet produces bigger files. |
