I have no objection to including such useful macros in the slrn distribution, 
but I'd rather they remained optional extras rather than being rewritten as 
part of the C source. Extra features are good if they're the features one 
wants: otherwise they just slow slrn down.

Does anybody have further suggestions for useful macros that could be 
made "official"? I'll start with Emanuele Bassi's identity.sl:

<http://www.emmanuelebassi.net/slrn/identity.sl>

I use it to set my signature. In some groups, a link to my web page is 
relevant, in others it isn't.
