Hello, mutt.
I'm using mutt 1.5.23.
The default value of the configuration variable index_format is
"%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s".
My personal value is similar. The construct "(%?l?%4l&%4c?)" puzzles

Hello, mutt.
I'm using mutt 1.5.23.
The default value of the configuration variable index_format is
"%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s".
My personal value is similar. The construct "(%?l?%4l&%4c?)" puzzles
me. The parentheses are literal characters, but what do all the ?s
mean?
