- Apparently, you *DON'T* have to edit it to get it in the right order. You
- just said yourself, that "Type"ing the capture buffer after using 'talk' will
- give you an EXACT replay of everything that happened in the 'talk' session."
-
- Right! AND IN THE RIGHT ORDER - just filled with "filterable" control
- characters that one shouldn't *have* to edit out if they are *filtered* out
- by the VLT software to begin with - LIKE THE REVIEW BUFFER IS ABLE TO DO!
- ^^^^
- There should be a similar toggle available for those who don't want an *exact*
- copy that contains the control characters, too...and that filter *obviously*
- exists for the review buffer.
-
- Even if it doesn't filter out ALL the cursor control characters, it would STILL
- be a great help to have fewer characters to delete on a search and destroy
- mission with the wordprocessor....
