Thomas, et al -- ...and then Thomas Huemmler said... % ... % What I have noticed is, that if you continue a mutt directive in another % line, you have to put not only a backslash (\) at the end of the line, % but also enter a space before ( \). Sometimes I forget this and then I % always get some kind of visual effects.
This makes sense when you think about it; the backslash simply escapes the newline and has the effect of sucking the next line up onto the current one... If you don't have a space before your escape and newline, then it is the same as running two keywords together. What many people do is indent their continued lines, which not only gives a visual indication of two (or more) lines belonging together but which also has the delightful side effect of adding the extra space that you've noticed one must have. How convenient! :-) % % What works for me is to /modularize/ the rc-files of mutt. So if % something strange happens, I could /unsource/ the various modules and % localize the misbehaviour more easily by sourcing one after another. Excellent idea. How do you unsource, though? I can only figure that you comment out the source line(s) and then restart mutt, no? % % HTH, % Thomas HTH & HAND % % -- % Thomas H�mmler * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://www.huemmler.de :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
