Once you press send on an instant message, it <s>sensd.s</s> sends. The message is irrevocable and the only way to make corrections to it is to retype the entire thing, or use some notation like:
Screenname13789: Let's go pubic!
Screenname13789: *public
What instant messengers really need is
a quick way to strike out the last thing you said, or specific words from the last thing you said, analogous to Morse code's ·······.
This would more quickly get the point across.

I thought this would be a strikethrough feature used in applications like Word, with a button in the taskbar, so you could strike-as-you-type. This is better. + |

I tend to be too slow to catch the mistakes. This means five
edits and people telling me what I've missed. The upshot,
