%-25.25F This is a printf-like string sizing specification. See the mutt manual or man printf for details. It's the ".25" that makes the difference. The first "25" makes it a minimum of 25 characters; the ".25" makes it a maximum. The "-" left-aligns. -- -D. [EMAIL PROTECTED] NSIT University of Chicago
