Hi again,
Thanks for the discussion on these items I've raised. I feel I need to clarify some things, if I may. On the word-wrap: We need Pan to stop mucking with the way the original texts were posted, when quoting those texts. Unless "someone" actively decides to muck with it. Period. ;) There was no way at all I could stop Pan/GTK/whatever from doing it to the piece I quoted before -- but remember I said it was being REVERSE word-wrapped, which is sometimes an odd act to perform on one line and not any others, see. N.B. the wrapped line was done by the time Pan showed its own Reply panel, whether or not anything was added to the text by whatever means. FYI I usually hand-off what I type to a freeware OSX app known as TextWranger (which I've mentioned in the past on my postings here; it is available at http://www.barebones.com/ ; this editor has been expressly designed to interact with (most?) *ix apps as well as OSX apps, as it has a few CLI parts we can use in regular scripts etc.; has built-in spellcheck, colorized computer language syntaxes, its own rules for wordwrapping, some "smart quotes" translations [e.g. change "this" to “this”], and lots more). Also FYI if the badly-wrapped text is easy to fix, I will do it in the editor. Otherwise, it is way too complex to fix, so I probably won't even include the quoted texts at all (as is the case with this very reply here: the quoted texts were terrible what with everyone's multi-layered quotes being wrapped differently etc). On the header pane right-most column hiding: I have "spied" on Pan's prefs.xml file setting for my chosen "Bytes" column -- Pan changed it every time to the full width calculation INCLUDING the vertical scroll-bar, when I cleanly exited/quit Pan. So the problem showed-up again on the next start of Pan. This is the reason I blame Pan instead of the other parts as was mentioned (GTK/whatever), as Pan kept rewriting the too-large value into its own prefs again. Never-mind even the hand-edited value I had stuck in there to try thwarting this (yes with Pan completely quitted at those times). I don't remember who fixed this problem for the Date column (I definitely remember Date _was_ fixed in this, once upon a time, however). I had always meant to mention that Bytes is affected as well, and probably other people have other/different columns pinned at the right-hand side there as well. ;) Sorry this got kinda long again. I will do a git-pull of your changes, and give 'em a try. Thanks (everyone) for putting up with me. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
