  • oxp: gets better and better

    Hello Martin!

    OXP just seems to get better and better with regular use.

    I had a need to hunt for a message containing specific string and it
    produced this nice result when triggering thread-view on one of the
    matches:

    References of "Social Media Subsitute"

    The 3 lines with the blocks "þ" were the matching messages containing the string. BUT, as a bonus, it revealed a related message that I had P)arked
    in the /¯Unsent folder for editing later. I had almost forgotten about
    that one, and there it is too!

    Cast your mind back to something I said to you when you were first
    thinking about looking at OpenXP ..... "It's an adventure" :)
