I should follow-up and state that if you are at the end of thread boundaries, the "<--" and "-->" will jump you to adjacent discussion threads (assuming Jeff is using MHonArc's normal $TNEXT$ and $TPREV$ variables). Also, since a window of certain size is being used to only provide an index for the latest set of messages, if there exists a really long discussion thread, breaks can occur in the "<--" and "-->" links for messages in the thread that are outside the window since messages are no longer updated (but still searchable) once they are outside of the window. A limitation of the "poor man's windowing technique", but it does speed up mail-archive mail processing considerably. One potential change that could help in navigation is to use the TSLICE features of MHonArc to provide a mini-thread listing on each message page. I can contribute some layout settings if Jeff is interested. All I should need is a copy of the the resource files mail-archive uses. --ewh _______________________________________________ Gossip mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jab.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gossip
