If you mean the '/ m' part doesn't need to be done first to get '/ *' to display cached articles, then I haven't found that to be true. Haven't been able to display cached without using '/ m' first. My only point is that on the list where the instruction about using '/ *' appears it looks as if all you need to do is press '/ *' to limit view to cached only. Similar to '/ D' to view dormant articles Pressing just '/ D' does display dormant articles Pressing just '/ *' does *not* display cached articles What it seem to do is move the cursor to a cached article but not limit the display to cached only. In all other uses of '/ m' the sequence is Press '/' press 'm Get a prompt that looks like 'Marks:' insert desired mark press and the view gets limited to that mark. With cache mark (*) the sequence is different. Press '/' press 'm' Get prompt 'Marks:' press (if you insert the '*' mark before pressing as in the other cases, you will be shown a blank screen.) So you must press with out inserting a mark Now press '/ *' and view will be limited to cached I didn't see any other way to limit the view to cached articles So still seems to need to be clarified on the info page as in my suggestion. -- Harry Putnam reader@newsguy.com
