Hi Karen

I recently switched to Full WYSIWYG Editing Message Editor Interface to write posts and I LOVE IT! (What You See Is What You Get)
Reminds me of something John C. Dvorak said in PC Magazine back when Windows was "new" (he was not a fan).

"Mostly I think WYSIWYG is just as bad an idea in computing as it is in women."

Anyway... for those of us who HATE switching back and forth from the keyboard to the mouse, over and over....

In both posting modes, you can do text highlighting without leaving the keyboard, as well.

First of all, you can hi-lite text by holding down the shift key while you "arrow key" over it. Once you have text hi-lited you can make it
Bold, by pressing Ctrl-B
Italic by pressing Ctrl-I
and
Underline by pressing Ctrl-U

Or do all of it by pressing all of them.

And once you're done typing, instead of clicking on "Submit Reply" you can just press Tab twice, then press Enter.

Kinda lik....
