But that's another thing that could be explored using debug-on-quit as Lars suggested. However, once the pass is finished, exiting the group should be much faster. > also seems to loose any marks that have been applied to the articles I thought `B m' was supposed to preserve marks, but I could be wrong. > (expiry for example), and if you use expiry it will screw that up also > because it will change the modification time on the file, which nnml > uses for expiration. Also true. Like I said, it's a hack. Ken
