On 06/07/99 Jeremy Chadwick uttered the following other thing:
[good long discussion of padding spaces in mutt]
Mutt doesn't do this, slang does. This is a known problem in slang, if
my memory serves me. People haven't mentioned it in a while, but I
believe that when slang is putting things in color (which may be
default, I imagine), it pads out to end of line with spaces. Recently,
this came up on comp.mail.mutt as well.
The solution? Well, you can speak with John Davis, author of slang, or
try ncurses. Perhaps there is something we can do in mutt to keep slang
from doing this, I don't know.
