Hi all Disclaimer first: I'm a mmh-developer and user
We think currently about removing the Previous-Sequence support for mmh. But because we don't use it we are not sure, if we missed some aspect of it. Therefor I would like to ask some questions. When and why was the Previous-Sequence introduced to mh or nmh? What are the use cases? We found two: 1. in the shell using the same messages again and spare some typing 2. put messages in a sequence after a refile[0] The first completely covered with the shell history. The second one can don with the new sequence or the -retainsequences switch. Did we miss some use cases? Are there other reasons to keep this feature? Philipp Ps: really nice work you do.
