As opposed to not having an option at all, like we have now?

except there's a _much_ easier way to give them the option. it's the same way you do it with .html -- put it into the file in a way that enables them to turn it on and off as they wish. if you're not imaginative enough to figure out how to do that, then just sit on your hands until you see how i accomplish it. if you ain't gonna put the information in the file, no viewer on the surface of the planet can put it in. but that's _your_ fault, not the fault of the program. and it shows you don't have the user's interest at heart.

Oh, and don't tell me the reader program should do it.

telling _you_ is an exercise in futility. but when i tell other people that a reader-program should do it, and give them one which actually does it, _they_ will understand. and then _they_ will start telling you to include that information. i've tried speaking to "the powers that be" directly, and found them nonresponsive, so i'll route stuff through the _users_ from now on. -bowerbird
