The answer is do it first, or don't do it. But surely . . .
 
I wrote a long PM to one of our illustrious members and then decided to InFormEnter my email. It wiped the lot. :ugh:

I've been caught before, so only myself to blame but one forgeterizes things these days. However, it does seem a barmy thing since InFormEnter is a FF Add-on with years of development.

Any cures - apart from not forgetting?

Undo, no help. No Draft memory on so many enter boxes.

If it's a long reply, and might require a bit of internet searching I write in a text editor in a terminal window and copy/paste after smell chucking etc.

Saves a lot of WTFDTSSDT?


Hmmmm -- Pprune's smell chucker doesn't recognise "internet". Nor "recognise" :-/

I might be wrong but I don't think Prune has a spill chucker - it's provided by your browser. "Internet" is considered a proper noun by some so the lower case "i" is naughty.

I often use EditPad and then Ctrl-C for lengthy text.

But this begs the stock answer: 'Yes, that's true, but why should I have to!?"

By stock answer I mean, one that women say at least once every 28 days.:p


One is now in hiding.
