Can an option be added to pan (or did I miss it, using Windows 0.134 "wait
for me") so that when someone posts a massive binary to a non-binary group
(or, I guess, any group) to display *only* the textual portion of the
message and not prompt me to download it?
To me, there's nothing more annoying (OK, that's not entirely true :-)
than reading through a non-binary group like pan.user (I read it through
gmane) and having the "mood" broken by an oversized pop-up asking me what
to do.
