Re: [Nmh-workers] Loop support in mh-format?

Hi Ken,

the idea was that if fmt_scan() returned non-NULL, you'd call
fmt_scan() again and you'd pick up after the FT_DONE instruction?

That's my understanding.

But how would you exit the loop, that's what I don't understand.

Me neither.  I was hoping a caller that bothered to check for a non-NULL
return would explain but didn't notice one.  Is JLR still around?

I'm not going to bother to fully implement the loop construct unless
someone has a credible reason for wanting it (and comes up with a
workable proposal to the syntax of it).

Quote agree.  Feeping creaturism.

But Ralph's note came in as base64-encoded UTF-8 which repl deals
poorly with ... we've got more work to do, sadly.

I sent it as

    MIME-Version: 1.0
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

They're in my ~/mail/components and work OK until I `forw -mime' or
similar.  Unfortunately, Mailman thinks it knows better.

Whilst talking about Mailman...

Any chance we can alter the nmh lists to use the "-- ", note the space,
start of a signature indicator rather than "___...".

Cheers, Ralph.
