The factchat editor was integrated in the interface of the pAdmin for platforms that have factchat. With the help of the factchat editor, you can save factchat conversations in tabular form. Thus the evaluation and documentation of individual discussions should become easier for you. Furthermore, you can delete individual messages (postings) from factchat.
