Feature request - Undo button

Hey Alex. I am still absolutely loving your new program and look forward to each new release. You are doing an absolute fantastic job with this.

I was just working with the program and did something that I do often (which is fuck up) I accidentally chose delete headers instead of save articles when I had a whole series of articles chosen.

Now I realize I can select the quick filter and show deleted items. That would mean I would have to sift through quite possibly 5 million headers to find the articles I just deleted. And yes I could do a search and find them rather quickly. But!

It would really be convenient if there was an undo button where I could undo at least the very last action. I am not sure how difficult this is to implement and I am certain it is way down the line of things to consider. But I think it’s a feature that would be greatly appreciated.

Anyway. Thanks for your time and keep up the stellar work!

After you've deleted a number of headers they are still selected, although invisibly. If you have assigned a shortcut key for 'Undelete headers and replies', you can press that immediately after the accidental deletion, and it will undelete exactly the headers you just deleted. You must use a keyboard shortcut however, since any mouse action in the newsgroup view will change the selection.
