    I'd like point out one particular shortcoming in OpenXP.

    It doesn't have a way to reveal fido kludges such as: TID, PID, TZUTC,
    CHRS, CHARSET, etc..

    Pressing <Ctrl+O> whilst reading a message or pressing <Ctrl+O> whilst cursoring over a message in the message list will reveal some of them
    but in a *very* unfamiliar format.

    Ah! Thanks. I thought "O" was the only way to reveal the hidden
    details. Once I saw the result with Ctrl+O, I remembered using it some
    time ago - but had forgotten the secret key-combo.
