Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean by 'the article' and
'whatever article'. Could you give me some extra details or a more
specific example to help me reproduce your problem?
Sorry, once again I'm not understanding. Maybe it's because I'm on
a high-speed link? 'Saving attachments' takes no time at all for me,
but maybe I'm just spoiled ;o) You have a different experience?
I have 20MBit down & 5MBit up so I'd guess that if saving attachments
takes no time at all then you're simply downloading teeny tiny
attachments. Go to any active alt.binaries.* and download something.
For example, let's say you go to alt.binaries.lunatics to grab a 1.5GB
video of Steve Ballmer and Richard Stallman yelling at each other. You
find that the video has been packed into 65 RAR files and has 20 parity
files, thus you have 85 files to retrieve. In the header pane they show
up as 85 headers, or "Articles" as Pan calls them. (Did you really not
understand this? Look at the Actions menu.)
If you select all 85 articles and hit Shift-S or right click and select
"Save Attachments" or Actions->Save Attachments, you find that you
cannot scroll without Pan jumping around between the articles who's
attachments you are downloading and the currently highlighted/selected
article. Naturally this is while on the Header pane.
