Yes, that is more succinct, assuming that the only reason "sent" was in there was to match against $record. However, like I said, that "sent" string in the original pattern will also match folders named "abSENT" and "SENTimental" and "esSENTial". So it was entirely possible that the "sent" string was not redundant, and was actually intentional. >if I want the three folders, "<" "cv" and "dv", all to have the same >index format, yes? That's still a bad regular expression for that purpose, because it's still excessively general. It will match against things like "advocacy" and "inadvertent" and "advisor". I suggest, at the very least, that you use something more like this: folder-hook '(<|=cv|=dm)$' 'set index_format="whatever"' ...assuming that cv and dm are folders within $folder (which is what = means). ~Kyle - -- It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues. -- Abraham Lincoln -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Thank you for using encryption! iEYEARECAAYFAkhV0oUACgkQBkIOoMqOI15fAACeJcZckM72SWXw7TTCZIbl3f6c h5AAoOz2WV+OMfavWvIqC2gEk1YtUo6g =2cf8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
