Thank you! I made the correction as you showed.

Okay. I made that user configurable. Now Available in v1.46.

    tipm-:standard-recipe-style's value is flags-together

    Documentation:
    What is the receipe start style used.
    If 'flags-together, then the receipe start llike looks like

      :0flags:

    If any other value, then receipe start looks like

      :0 flags:

It's about time and now there is :-) The decision is based on this

            :0[aAeE]f[hbHB][Dwi]c: LOCKFILE
               |    | |     |   |
               |    | |     |   (c)ontinue or (c)opy flag last.
               |    | |     Other flags
               |    | The header/body flags next
               |    (f)ilter flag to the left, before hb
               The 'process' flags first. Signify (A)ND or (e)rror
               receipe.

What flag order would be better than this? The most important things
must be to my opinion to the left, like f before hb and aAeE before
anything else. c goes naturally to the right and there isn't must left
for others.

Thank you again.
