Hi Brian,

On 18 November 2000 at 09:00:59 -0500 (which was 14:00 where I
live) Brian Clark wrote and made these points:

Let  me  be  the  first  to attempt to understand what you're *really*
trying  to  do  here  ;-).  You are quite right that you can't get the
intended  prefix  returned  to  you  from the macro within a template.
Here's  a  suggestion;  why  not  use a RegEx like that you originally
suggested and force the issue? Take the guesswork out of what TB might
pick as a prefix and both report the key in the heading as you wish to
and  override  the  prefix  to  match  what  you reported by using the
%QUOTESTYLE="=xx". Just a suggestion.

BC> Yep, $Quotestyle does just what you see in this email. it works,
BC> but the first line is what I'm having trouble with.

There  was  a recent debate on this and TB just can't be made to do it
automatically.  You can force the issue by "pasting quoted" (Alt-Ins),
but TB's internal quoting mechanisms don't do it. :-(.

Use the %SINGLERE macro to get rid of these.

"Tell me about it!" <g>.
