No. The builtin so-called editor is really an "appender". While you can edit the line you're currently inputting (with ^W, erase and line kill) once you hit <return>, that's it. The builtin editor has no facilities for changing to a previously entered line and editing it. Therefore, it makes no sense to apply it when replying to a message when the original message is quoted. -- Rob Bernardo (415) 827-4301 (residence) B3 f+ t- dv sv m+ r+ p seeking B2-24 f+/f t-/t cv dv s++ m++ e r+ email until 3/1/90: ...![backbone]!pacbell!pbhyf!rob OR rob@pbhyf.PacBell.COM resurrection some several months after that
