I'm a bit lost on this whole quick reply issue, yet based on naudefj's image from 05 June 2009 http://cvs.prohost.org/index.php/Image:Quick_reply.jpg
I have to go with enabled by default but collapsed, otherwise it appears it would consume too much screen space. I assume that the admin would have the option of disabling or collapsing it altogether regardless of the default settings decided on?
Speaking of which is there any idea of when this new release is likely to happen?
At any rate I have downloaded the zip file and will take a look see at this varmint in action so I can get a feel for it.

$ patch -p0 <quick_reply.patch
This may also help: http://cvs.prohost.org/index.php/Applying_patches

I have tried, and read, and tried again and I am still lost at "and apply - $ patch -p0 <msg.tmpl.diff"
All I have managed to get is a dos window with a blinking cursor which seems to do nothing. no matter what I input.
So could someone please tell me where/how this patch command is actually applied at?
In the meantime I will attempt to do it manually.

Anyway, just a word of warning: This patch was re-written for CVS. So, implement it if you need QR in FUDforum 2.8.x. However, if you want to see how it will eventually look, you need to checkout the code from CVS.

You pretty much lost me after "Warning": But learning more about CVS is # 1653 on my to-do list but I will expedite it some.
I have already switched over entirely to ver 2.8.1, and by this time next month I will have deleted all my files related to previous versions even backups as being obsolete.
Plus I managed to succeed in installing "Quick Reply" manually from the file you uploaded on the 12th, and I think I like it...Maybe a lot! You all did good!
Two points of note: 1st the current version uses "post_quick_reply.png" as the default image button file, will that remain in the final version? Or will "quick_ reply.gif" be used as in the current default buttons?
Let me know and I can change the colorized versions of the quick reply buttons to png and or rename them as you require.
2nd naudefj commented in the read me note included "Create "Quick Reply" buttons (the current English button needs to be improved)" but does not say what improvements are needed.
Looking at it I'm guessing the text needs to be a bit bolder, if so will this suffice?

True, they aren't going anywhere; I was referring to putting an emphasis on making more, but it's just as easy to make them in sets anyhow. I actually found that I kind of appreciate the quick reply function now that I had a chance to try it out and I am sure others will as well.
Funny I seem to spend more time learning about the forum than actually using it, oh well, time will come!
