Re: Zapping repeated .sig appendices

Here's something I've been planning to implement, in pseudo code: 

[snip]

2. If current line matches /^-- $/, snip from here to end of message
   and stop.

I don't like that regexp.  You'd miss my sig (even though it's the 4
line standard).  Mine is like this for various reasons:

1) It's 4 lines.
2) I have a separator (the -=- stuff) so when I forward a message,
   it's clearer where mine ends and the forward begins.
3) Some lists I'm on actually include stuff after the sigs.

Just remove the $ and I'll agree to the regexp.  That aside, your
concept sounded well thought out and I think it would be a great
challenge to code. :)
