I understand.  It's a bit of a shift in mind-set, but I think you'll
like the new stuff.

That sounds cool. You may want to think about a new newsgroup for addins so that we, as a community, only write one html stripper, one rtf stripper etc

So, the important fact is how easy it is for me, not how easy it is for you <vbg> - ps I guessed it was the internals *before* I wrote the message

Now you are into heresy!

I was thinking the same thing.  We've got one internally for stripping out
text from UU encoding and MIME encoding, but they could probably use some
improvement.  It will be really nice to have everyone be able to share their
PDF filters, etc. along with language-specific word generators for text
indexing.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no, particularly when making it easy for you makes
it also buggy for you.

Which part - Pascal or VB ?

Strange I don't remember seeing that in the options.
