Once the yum repository people at Fedora (or, likely, at livna) started carrying updates to Pan, they've been consistently prompt about putting up versions of each new release; so I've been away from 0.14.xyz for kind of a while now.
I *think* I remember 0.14 and several before it having a way to set an alternate editor. Didn't they? Do the (1.0 - xyz) versions have such a thing? Am I just not finding it? Or if not, is there hope that 1.xyz will? I've never liked the default editor, if only because the tab key merely gets me lost, instead of letting me indent paragraphs (as, imnsho, every writer worth a keyboard ought to do always). Now a couple of savvier friends (Does 'savvy' *have* a comparative form?) are after me to learn a 'real' editor at last -- vi, in their opinion, instead of pico/nano and whatever Pan's default is. One of them suggests phasing it in, starting with apps other than my usual mailer (Pine -- or fight; I hate web mailers, or any GUI mailers). That makes a lot of sense. And I use Pan heavily, but seldom for matters so urgent I can't wait a day or three. So it's the obvious candidate. Can I do it? -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Fedora Core 6; Pine 4.64, Pan 0.125; Privoxy 3.0.3; Dillo 0.8.6, Galeon 2.0.3, Epiphany 2.16, Opera 9.10, Firefox 1.5 Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
