How to copy contents of entire thread?

Posted by fallsfall on October 23, 2003, at 7:06:56

Is there a way to copy (or save or somehow easily collect) the text from all of the messages in a thread? Ideally I would like to go to the top of the thread and push a button that would take all of the contents of each message in the thread (plus who posted and when) and stick it in my copy buffer, or save it on my harddrive.

Currently, the only way I know to do this is to open each message in the thread, select and copy. If it is a long thread that is pretty tedious.

Dr. Bob? You seem to do this sometimes when you redirect a post - you concatenate (Thank you for spell check!!) several posts into one post for the new board, instead of moving each post separately. Is there a trick you can share with me?

Thanks!
