Subject: Getting pine 3.94 to not generate .pine-debug messages

I'm testing Pine 3.94 to upgrade the pine 3.91 our site uses.  I've
found that pine 3.94 generates .pine-debug files by default, which our
old 3.91 doesn't.  Is there any easy way to make it stop doing this
(with disable-default-in-bug-report?), or via modifying source code?

Yes there is, by modifying the source..
In directory pine/osdep are various os-???.h -files, modify the one your
system uses.

There should be line:
#define DEFAULT_DEBUG 2

Modify it to read
#define DEFAULT_DEBUG 0

and recompile with build ??? .

Or, you can just go into Setup form the Main Menu, Config, scroll down to
the 'q' area and there are a series of 'quell...' commands.  Try checking
those until your messages go away.

	I've set my user profiles with an alias for pine as follows:

alias pine='pine -d0'

	turns it off as per the manual instructions quotes in the
prior follow up.

>From the Pine man page:

      -d debug-level      Output diagnostic info at debug-level (0-9) to the
                          current .pine-debug[1-4] file.  A value of 0 turns
                          debugging off and suppresses the .pine-debug file.
