"stanley adelson" wrote in message ... VERY ANNOYING BECAUSE YOU BOTTOM POST Sorry to hear your annoyed Stanley. But bottom posting a response or comments is the generally accepted norm. Regards....Chris When readers of books die out, I wonder if it will be the norm in the future - like talking about clockwise and anti-clockwise to people who have only seen the 24-hour digital clock? |

As far as eliminating part-posts, I'm sure you know the idea was to cut a big file into smaller pieces making it easier for the server to handle. All the NG readers I ever used, assemble the individual files seamlessly. It doesn't get much easier than that. The problem with breaking big files into smaller sections is that not all of them come through. If it's under, say, 3mb, it shouldn't be a problem for most people these days (I've had cable for over five years). OE can sort files by size, in addition to sorting by subject, poster etc; if people are on a dial-up modem, they can simply exclude files that are too large (tools, message rules, "where the message size is a certain size"). What a server accepts or is still in the process of putting up for download is something I have no control over. After I posted the files I checked and all were there. It took less than 20 seconds to upload the file which is a fraction of my download rate, approximately 6meg. Someone said it took forever. Boo! Hoo! get rid of the dialup. What are posters required to do, offer a guarantee that all files download in "X" amount of time? Agreed. I don't understand some peoples approach to a file sized at over 34,000 lines being good, but a movie file part at 8,000 lines is bad? Because 95% of the population is stupid. We need a serious culling. -- http://www.petersparrots.com http://www.insanevideoclips.com http://www.petersphotos.com ,c,.. ,J$$$$PJ$CJ$c . .,$$$$C$$$$$$$$$$$$ ,L;$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$c ,',$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$Lc, .J$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ ,$`;?$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ccJ???ccc ,P'.$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$JP.`.`.`.?. ,J?`.`J$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$P`.`.`.`.`$ ,$?.`.`.;$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$;`.`.`.`. `?. ,P?`.`.`.`.3$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$C;`.`.` .`.`.$ ,$".`.`.`.`.;;?$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$C;;. `.`.`.`.3. ,$".`.`.`.`;;;;;;$$$$?`.`.`.`$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$?$$$$; ;.`.`.`.`.?, ,P".`.`.`.,;;;;;;J" ?$F.`.`.`.`.?$$$$$$$$$$$$?$$$$$;;;`.`.`.`.`h ,$"`.`.`.`.,;;;;;;J" j'.`.`.`.`.`$h'.?$$$$$`.$'3$$$;;;`.`.`.`.`$ $`.`.`.`.;;;;;;;;P $.`.`.`.c$"'???`."??F`$".$$$$h;;`.`.`.`.`? $`.`.`.,;;;;;;;J" "h`.`c$"'cc?.`.`.`.`.`.`J$$$$$;;;.`.`.`.`?. ?;.`.`.;;;;;;j" ?ch`"'?$$F`.`.`.`.`.3i$$$$$$$h;;.`.`.`.`.h $;;.`.`;;;;;?h `?h.`.`.`.`.`.`.`.`.39$$$$$$$;;.`.`.`.`.$ $;;`.`.`;;;;;$. $.`.`.`.`.`.`.`.`.3C$$$$$$$;;.`.`.`.`.$ "i;,`.`.`.`.`?h. $.`.`.`.`.`.`.`.`.3C$$$$$$$;;.`.`.`.`.?. `h;;.`.`.`.`.`?h (`.cJF.`.`.`.`.`.`.J?;$$$$$$C;;`.`.`.`.`h ?;;,.`.`.`.`.`"h_ ""L`.,,.`.`.`.`.`J?;;$$$$$$C;;`.`.`.`.`?.
