Yes, and my point was: for these options, the default value shouldn't be written in the manual, because it may be incorrect. The user should get the actual value with :set xxx=[TAB]. And of course, this should be documented. Moreover, if mutt -v could give a hint, this would be useful. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International des Jeux Mathématiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA
