I have an idea. How about a "draft" function for DU?

[arcadian]

Often times I'd like to type a really long post, then get half way through it and get tired of working on it. How about a function that could save the stuff I'm working on so I can return to it later? Just an idea... Might help out the posters who notoriously make really long thoughtful posts. Not really me though, I'm just a hack. :D

1. Save it to your clipboard

but don't be surprised to find your documents full of saved half posts to the clipboard within a couple of weeks.

3. Yeah but it would be nice if it was all just right here.

I don't know, just a thought.

2. When I'm in that situation, I copy and paste what I've written to my email.

If it's the end of a long day, I sometimes email it to myself so I'm reminded in the morning.

You're not a hack, arcadian. When I see your posts, I read them and think about them, even if I don't have time to reply. :hi:

5. I thought every sentence you composed was golden as it emerged from the keyboard?

:hide: :D :hi:

7. Thanks, Heidi

:hug: Reading that makes me want to be a better poster. I do the same, email really important stuff to myself.

4. couldn't ya just compose your post in a word processor and copy/paste when you're ready?

[arcadian]

10. I like to write out all of my posts longhand with pencil and paper.

:rofl:

Uh-oh, I think I've actually done that... :yoiks:

6. This functionality will be included in the next version of the DU software

Which we're slowly working on...

[arcadian]

9. Nice.

And I didn't know I was seer, I've suspected, but...

8. Write a document take all the time and revisions you ant. When you are ready cut and paste it
