When on a muck or mush or whatever there's a function called "Recall Text" that comes in very very handy in editing logs and filtering out 'background noise text' as I like to call it.. however, it would be really awesome if that same function were in the notepad / txt mode of the client, so logs that have already been made can be edited easier.

Another idea I wanted to bring up is a way to make spaces between lines. Often, for visual easability of reading, I like to include line breaks between lines, so it's more like HTML paragraphs.. much easier to tell who's saying what. Think that'd be a good feature? Kinda like the "Quote lines" function.

I have added the "recall text" idea as suggestion #391.

As for spaces between lines, do you mean in the main output window, or in the notepad?

Well, now that you mention it, both would seem to me to be a good idea.. yknow, to keep things uniform and fluent throughout the program... But that could get kind of messy on the actual output since there's lots of times where there's multiple lines to make ASCII descriptions or lists of things... The recall text and notepad functions however could definately use that.. 'cause basically what I end up having to do is after I make the log, and I'm looking at it in Notepad, I gotta go Enter Down-Arrow Enter Down-Arrow Enter Down-Arrow over and over again.. would just save a lil hassle is all :)
