Subject: viewer-hdrs setting in .pinerc

This setting seems to ask for a list of the headers one wishes to see when
viewing messages.

Is there some way to set it to view *all* the headers, without listing
every conceivable one?  I tried "viewer-hdrs=all" and pine displayed no
headers at all - that was amusing.  The default "viewer-hdrs=" does not
show all the headers one sees by viewing the INBOX with other programs
(such as "more").

Thanks for any advice.

	Look in setup/config....

	Find:

	[X]  enable-full-header-cmd

	Read the Help on that command and see if it meets your needs.
With that command enabled you can hit "h" when vewing a message and
*all* the headers will appear.

The idea of "viewer-hdrs" is that you _explicitly_ list the headers you
want showing by default.

If you want to see _all_ of the headers of a message don't try and do it
by fiddling with "viewer-hdrs".  Instead enable the "full headers" command
in Pine's Setup Configuration screen and then give the "H" command when
viewing a message.

The change in the Setup Configuration screen remains in effect for future
Pine sessions.  The "H" command remains in effect (certainly for the
current folder, I can't remember if for subsequent folders) until you
leave Pine or toggle it off by another "H" command.

Cheers,

Thanks for the info.  Sometimes I look too hard for what should be the
most obvious.

	As long as you've looked...that the most important thing.
Most of us have not see the forest because of the trees from time
to time.  However, some never open their eyes to even look for the
trees.
