[Free Framers] RE: Change bars for multiple revisions

You just have to kill off the original sender's e-mail & slap on the framers at lists.frameusers.com address (at least that's whet I do)

Thanks, this gives my brain some directions to think in.

And yes, I fully agree on the message headers!  I always wind up accidentally replying only to the sender.

Finding by character format led my brain down the character format/tag path for the change, but you could use the same basic process (change by
pasting) to apply a condition to the Rev. A revisions. In fact, that might be preferable if you need to track multiple rounds of revisions.
You can define and apply multiple conditions, overlap them, and they're all still there. Can't do that with character tags, and the number of format changes available is pretty limited. 

BTW, does anyone else find this list's message addressing annoying? I'm responding to my own message, which, according to TO and FROM headers was sent by me to me. Thus Reply All addresses my response to me, and neither Seonaid nor the list is an addressee -- both have to be added manually. 

Annoying, I tell you, annoying.
