Hi,
i just installed elm 2.4 PL20, upgrading from elm 2.3PL11.
Environment: SunOS4.1.1, Sun SparkStation II
There were two things:
1) elm refuses to compile with:
redeclaration of utimbuf in leavembox.c
i had to '#define UTIMBUF' in config.h
So the Configure-script doesn't seem correctly set up the configuration file.
2) i'v run into the following:
i tryed to read from a folder ('abc' in maildirectory) for alias 'xyz' from cmd-line
with:
elm -f @xyz
which gave me:
Floating Point Exception signal!
Emergency exit taken! All temp files intact!
If i try to read the folder with the correct foldername:
elm -f =abc
everything is fine.
[From within elm, the change folder command with @xyz works as exspected]
-) Now a question:
i try to tag specific messages according to patterns in the "to"-field, since
^T only searches 'from' and 'subject', i first 'limit' the messages using
'to <pattern>', an then tagging all the selected msgs. Now it would be nice to have
a 'tag'cmd wich moves the msg-pointer to the next msg (like 'n(ext)').
OR is there a more easy way to do that.
Stefan.
