  I have a file called DG XEDIT (which I received when its creator
 offered it over some list to which I was subscribed).  It is designed for
 a VM/CMS platform.  It creates a compilation of the subject lines at the
 head of the digest.  I tab to the first topic of interest and press F2.
 The program jumps me to that message in the digest.  After reading that
 message I can continue on through that thread by continuing to press F2.
 When I have completed that thread, F1 returns me to the compilation of
 subject lines and I can repeat the same process for some other topic.
 
   I have found it very useful in allowing me to quickly work through long
 digests where only selected messages are of interest.
