Yeah. The last time I looked at this problem (which was at least a couple of years ago), I came to the conclusion that it would require refactoring the scoring code quite a bit. But thinking it over now, I don't really remember why. I've had a fresh look over the code, and I think it can be done without a total rewrite, but it would entail some rather ugly-looking hacks... -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
