snip

Please can those of you who top post spare a thought for some of the
rest of us? I get trouble with RSI if I do too much mouse and keyboard
work, so rather than dab and click at just those posts/bits of post I
want to read, it is much easier on my wrists to hit the spacebar which
takes me to next screen then next post then next thread then next
newsgroup. That is, of course, until someone decides to re-post a long
post in its entirety and it takes me 12 hits just to get to the next
post!

Please - just leave a few lines as context, then snip the rest.


I use the space bar for navigation as well, and I have found it very useful
to set up a filter not to download posts of over 300 lines - which I assume
the culprit was. You might be able to do the same?
