Version 2.0b12 
==============

September 13, 1994.


With Systems 7.0 and 7.0.1, version 2.0b11 still crashed sometimes when you
deleted, cut, or pasted text. This bad error should finally be fixed once and for
all. My apologies for the aggravation caused by these stupid mistakes in 2.0b10
and 2.0b11 - I shouldn't have tried to use unfamiliar Script Manager functions
without reading all of the relevant documentation.

The great debate rages on about whether or not the "Next Article" command and its
keyboard shortcuts should return to the subject window at the ends of threads.
Battle lines are being drawn on comp.sys.mac.comm. To placate the latest batch of
outraged users who hate the change made in 2.0b10, there is a new checkbox option
named "Return to subject window at end of thread" in the "General Options"
preference topic. The default value is off - at the end of a thread, the "Next
Article" command opens the first article in the next thread, as in 2.0b9 and
earlier versions. If you prefer to have the "Next Article" command return to the
subject window at the ends of threads, as in 2.0b10 and 2.0b11, turn the option
on.

If you try to open a NewsWatcher preferences file in the Finder while NewsWatcher
is already running, the program now presents an alert telling you that you must
quit the program and restart it to switch preferences. The alert has two buttons:
Quit and Cancel.

When you send a message, with some kinds of error conditions, NewsWatcher
incorrectly claims that the message was posted OK but there was an error trying
to mail it, when actually the error was in posting. Fixed.
