Just noticed the conversation about open lists on features. I'll add this word to all of my open lists in case anyone wants to add to them. (And thanks for all the help I've had so far!) Credit: Prolagus

The new paradox is that this word is now fit for Meta, but Meta is not an open list so it shouldn't have it listed...

I'm hoping John will add the promised automatic marker soon and this method will never become popular enough for me to have to worry about it. (Besides, the right-hand column would become enormous if we all used this...)

That should convince John :)

Popularity would make it very hard to manage. I couldn't even remember which ones I'd set as open. Unfortunately, you can't tag a list without tagging every word in it as well. Hopefully the marker feature will be out soon.
Not to mention, having it in my lists is somehow annoying.

Another temporary idea could be adding Prolagus's open lists (in my case) and it would become a list in reverse -- cool! I'll do it soon.

Nozink. What I think are your open lists appear to be indented one space.

�? (Z NOTATION SPOT)
In your second one, the link works.
If that's not what you're asking, sorry--I'm not really awake yet. *yawns*

Right, on the linked page I see big blue spots. And I think I'm awake. At least I should be.

I see indents too.
Edit: In Explorer I see boxes.

But Pro, if there are indents, squares, or dots, don't they all serve the same purpose? *possibly still not awake*
