Sample Macro to be used with Cotse Usenet and Forte Agent News Reader
Submitted by an anonymous Cotse user
This macro was written in Macro Express 2000 ®, version 2.1e.
It is for use with Forte Agent (a truly fine mail and newsgroup reader), and
allows the reading of newsgroup messages in Agent and hitting a macro key to
reply in cotse mail. The appropriate thread title, message ID, and
newsgroups are filled in by the macro, so that when you arrive in cotse mail
you can just start typing.
It is a rather elementary macro cooked up in about half an hour to see if it
could be done. The reader is encouraged to modify it and add to it. The many
delays of from 50 ms. to several seconds are to compensate for Windows the
Slug and for Web delays. Even with those, the macro will occasionally fail
because I'm not checking results, just typing blindly after the delay. The
macro can be made a lot more reliable with much checking of results, but
this is just a prototype. It is placed in the public domain, and do with it
as you please.
This macro is unsupported by Cotse. Use at your own risk. You must know the
use of Macro's before attempting to implement them.
