S-Lang or ncurses? (was Re: Cut and paste annoyance...)

1999-10-01 Thread Frederic L . W . Meunier
Hmm, since we're talking about ncurses, S-Lang, and terminals, I have a question that may be better answered by John E. Davis, the author of S-Lang, and Thomas E. Dickey, the maintainer of ncurses (or may be not?), or by any other developer. I have two questions: 1- What are the differences you

I am having trouble with mutt and trying to use MH mailboxes. I am able to get my mail into MH format just fine, and mutt will read from those directories too. However, it is constantly telling me that I have new mail. My mailboxes line has a number of mailboxes listed, but the behavior is

Is there a way to change the From: address based on a message's recipient (ie, based on what it gets when it prompts for To: and Subject:)? I played with send-hook with no luck. Cheers, Troy

Sorting, scoring and pattern-matching

1999-10-01 Thread Telsa
I'm having some difficulties with the sorting by score ability of Mutt. Occurs currently on Mutt 1.0pre3i on Linux 2.2.13pre9 and earlier on 0.95.5i, but I think it's my pattern-matching rather than a mutt problem. I have read the manual, I have tried to understand the O'Reilly "Regular

Mutt's mh folder support could indeed be better. However, mh folders have serious problems with properly maintaining folder state when several programs may access the folder concurrently. I'm not aware of any well-defined locking solution for this. Thus, I'd recommend you consider mutt's mh

I acquired xterm-117, which seems to support utf-8 at least to the extent that it looks right when I cat a utf-8 file to the terminal. However, if I run mutt in the xterm, with charset=utf-8, it doesn't look right: Characters 0xa0..0xff in an iso-8859-X attachment are not being converted to
