• Tabbed toolbar

There are some things I would still like to add, these include

• Some way of viewing 'copy to self' mail
• a WinHelp file
• Compressed mail?
• Your suggestion here

Only users with pmRTF and Pegasus installed will be able to view mail composed with pmRTF.

Thus DO NOT send mail composed with it to any list! You are realy going to anoy people if you do.
Make sure the person you are sending mail to also has pmRTF.

Ver 0.4a

• Hot URLs
  just ctrl-click any of the following URLs
  
  • http://
  • ftp://
  • file://
  • gopher://
  • telnet://
  • news:
  • mailto:

• Font style buttons + ctrl key fixed
  If you press bold (with nothing selected) then the _next_ thing you type will be in bold.

• Save and Load of mail (on "Additional" tab)
  
• MIME multi part mail
  NB to implement MIME the mail format for pmRTF has had to change.
  I appologise for this, but there is no other way. 0.3b beta can read mail from any previous version, but no previous version can read mail sent by 0.3b!

  The MIME mail consists of 3 parts

  1. A text only version of the RTF mail
  2. A 3 line message saying its a pmRTF mail
  3. The RTF mail

  If you are using pmRTF to read the mail this should make no differance to you. You just double click and the reader will come up as usual. If you are not uing pmRTF (eg one of your less fortunate friends :), then you will be able to read the text version of the mail.

  One last thing, the MIME part of pmRTF is still in development and I can't guarantee that the mail format wont change again. But such is beta software....

• pmRTF button
  pmRTF button on the pmail tool bar
• Fast clipboard sig copy option
  No more waiting for the sigs, but it overwrites your clipboard data... I am still working on another method.
• Mail options to 'Special Mail Options page'
  Confirm Reading/Delivery, Copy Self and Urgent settings moved from the 'Settings + Options' form to the 'Special mail options' form
• Urgent flag is no longer sticky
  
• Ctrl key font toggle
  ctrl-B bold
  ctrl-S Strikeout
  ctrl-U Underline
  ctrl-F Font
  ctrl-I Italic
  
• Random quote support
  (On the special mail options page) Quotes (if enabled) are always added above the sig (if enabled) I plan to add the ~! substitution, like pmail in a future release. Pmail quotes can not be imported, again I hope to add this feature later on...

• Install
  A simple install application. (bundled in the .zip)
• Advanced box (composer)

• Resizable
  The composer and reader are now resizable Size and pos settings are saved
• Prefrances Saved (per user)
  Setting sutch as size / pos / use RTF sigs are saved seperatly for each user.
  
• Right click menu for composer RTF
  clicking the right button on the composer RTF window, will popup a small menu.
• Font Copy
  On the Font (2) page of the tabbed toolbar
  Like the font copy of WinWord, only different.
  It works like this
  1. Select the text with the desired font
  2. Click the buttton labled c
  3. Select the text where you want to apply the font
  4. Click the buttton labled p
  5. The font will be applied
• Tabs
  The Rich Edit now accepts tabs.
  Because of this
  1. You cant tab out of the rich edit (obviously!)
  2. You cant tab into it either, makes more sence this way, to me anyway
• Sigs
  Enabled again
  The add sig function is still slow, but at least now you can see it working. Not exactly riviting entertainment, but oh well.... There must be a better way to copy RTF text (without using the clipboard).
• No default selection.
  In the old versions when nothing was selected the default selection was used. But the default selection does not work logicly (IMHO). So I removed this.

Ver 0.2a

• Quick fix for signatures.
  The add sig button does work, it just takes a long time for the text to be copied. Thus the sig function has been disabled.

Ver 0.2

• Initail release
