I used to have a newsreader that coloured in reply-lines, and it annoyed me
when I was posting ASCII Arts with | or > down the sides.

Ahh well, if it helps you to read it that's ok I suppose - It got on my
nerves when it got it wrong though.

In fact, I've just noticed that I'm still using that newsreader -- with the
option turned off! I love it when programs actually let you turn things off
- maybe Microsoft should learn :o)
