Sorry to bother again,

i posted an article with the "compile" Problem:

>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.

after i received some mail, saying that there was no such problem on system xyz
i finaly traced the error down:

i configured and compiled patchlevel 0 of elm 2.4 first , to see if it would compile on 
our machine, which left a config.sh file i didn't removed.
Then i applied all 20 patches and configured again. This time Configure used the settings 
from the previous configuration. Since Patch 3 deals with utimbuf definition, and
the PL0 requires an #undefine NOUTIMBUF if utimbuf of the system IS used,
i got the wrong PRE-definition in the new Configuration.

Well, this could be seen as "user-error" ;)

=============

Was/is it common sense, that only those msgs should be fed to the (external) pager if
it's linecount would cause scrolling the screen? 
Used to 2.3 were ALL msgs were fed to the external pager, it was very - hm, inconsistent- 
to see a few msgs in a row by typing <down_arrow> and suddenly getting stoped at the end of 
a long msg and having to type "q".

[i know i should use the buildin, but i love to be able to scroll back in long msgs]


BTW: i think elm is really great ---- keep going :0)

Stefan.
