use-livecode Digest, Vol 219, Issue 1

[Robert Earp]

Sorry Jacqueline and Curry, I should have sent an acknowledgement of your previous speedy response to my question.

Jacqueline and Bob, in Apple Mail I can only find an option for plain text when composing mail, not receiving mail, but you can choose the font used to display a message.  I normally use Lucida Sans as its cross platform (from what I understand), but I have tried many others such as Courier to no avail.  Regardless, I don’t think mail clients are designed to handle mail lists in an intuitive manner, which is why I asked my original question looking for a “great” GUI hopefully in LC ;-)

Thanks again and kind regards, Bob...
