Use the source, Luke! The great benefit of open source software is that you can make
it do whatever you want. (grep is your best friend when trying to figure out what to
change, where.) In this case, all you have to do is
1. Create a new masthead for your list in the same directory as your existing
masthead.txt. Call it my_masthead.txt, say.
2. Edit Handlers/ToDigest.py to check for your one specific list.
if self.__mlist.real_name == 'my_list_name':
masthead = Utils.maketext('my_masthead.txt', self.TemplateRefs())
else:
masthead = Utils.maketext('masthead.txt', self.TemplateRefs())
Sure, it's a hack. But who cares? If it offends you, there are obvious ways of making
it more elegant.
