Huh?  I don't understand this.  In our version of RN there is an "f"
command to post a followup and an "F" command to post a followup that
includes the original article.  The prefix mark is defined by the -F
flag and defaults to ">".  This is not a new feature -- we were a Beta
test site, and this has been in from the very beginning.  Why did you
have to add new flags?
