What the heck is this vertical bar it uses for a quote level
That's taken care of here with one or both of these two entries in prefs.js in
the
profiledir:
what or where is this "profiledir:"?
Mozilla's own product profiles can be located anywhere a user chooses to put
them.
Profile names and locations are controlled for
Firefox in ~/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini.
SeaMonkey in ~/.mozilla/seamonkey/profiles.ini
ThunderBird in ~/.thunderbird/profiles.ini
Derivatives of them may be in a subdirectory in ~/.config/ or in ~/.*, such as
Pale Moon in ~/.moonchild productions/pale moon/profiles.ini
...
/home/gene/.thunderbird/f37v8icg.default-default/prefs.js
...
I count 8 prefs.js in the above list, so which one is actually being
talked about here?
Verify by examining ~/.thunderbird/profiles.ini.
Thank you Felix.
I did that but the prefs.js at that address does not contain any of the
the strings referenced in the original reply from Chuck Zmudzinski on
6/18/22.
I'd love to be able to install TDE, which would give me back the best
email agent linux ever had, kmail-3.5 but with all its bugs fixed, but
the first TDE package I select, generates over 300 hits of dependency
hell from synaptic.
So I'm stuck with t-bird and its plethora of oddly spec'd hot keys that
do nothing for the user but screw things up, many times doing nothing
but stealing the focus w/o any popup. Just typing to reply to this msg
has caused 6 pop-ups that had to be closed before I could resume typing
in the middle of a word. Twice I've had to reclick on the blinking
curser before it would resume accepting what I type. Yet folks accept
that? More bugs than a 10 day old road kill in the northern hemispheres
July.
Not your fault.
Take care & stay well, Felix.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
