However, actually digging into lib/aliases.tcl, we find that the line that
does the parsing is actually:
regexp {([^;:]+)([:;])(.*)} $line match key sep other
which accepts both ; and : as the separator. The rest of the code
seems to track the value of 'sep' as the separator field.
OK, that suggests not touching the nmh code.
And a quick test seems to indicate that if ";" is used, it behaves
well.
Are you sure? Did you try an alias that references another alias,
e.g.,
nmhworkers; nmhlist
nmhlist: nmh-workers(_at_)nongnu(_dot_)org
I'll send this message to "nmhworkers" using that.
What the current GUI *can't* seem to do is add an entirely new entry
that uses ";" as the separator.
I'd leave that alone too, unless someone fixes nmh.
