list out the users in a format such that you could copy/paste them into a reply.

Not really quite so easy, but see my post 77 for step by step instructions on how to do this.

Well, here's what I put together. You're running Linux so you should be able to handle this :)

Do the "Search For," and after each one, add a newline, then the "After, Add This:".

Search For: var postCount = 0;
After, Add This: var posterNames = [];

Search For: s = poster.makeRow(s, ++n);
After, Add This: posterNames.push(poster.name);

Search For: s += '<br>Average poster seniority: ' + formatAge(averageAge()) + '.';
After, Add This: s += '<br>Reply to all: '+posterNames.join(";");
Now, when you click the Poster Report, a new section at the bottom will list all of the posters on the thread, separated by semicolons. Copy to your clipboard and paste it into a new message!

Yup. Saw that post. I may write a vi macro to automagically reformat the output as required if I can’t figure anything else out.
