Hello all,

I am using Pine with speech and am wondering if message lists can be
altered.  When you press i for index, it lists messages like this
number date from size subject
I'd like to make it so the size isn't listed...less to read since I get
over 500 emails per day it makes it easier.  Can this be done?

Not without hacking the source code, and I don't know how easy it would be.

Shane:

Look at the help under "index-format" in main||setup||config.  It
describes how to reformat the index display.  No source code changes
required.

Please excuse me for intruding, but did you say Pine *with speech*???
<startled look>
Until now, I was unaware that such a thing was possible...<incredulous shake
of head>
Does it sort of work like this.....
------<hallucination>
"Pine, take a letter"
"Dear List[comma][nedwline][first letter capitalized]"
"I am astonished to learn that typing is no longer necessary [comma] owing
to the genius of the [capital letters]PINE [lowercase]team at Ewe
Wash[period]"
------</hallucination>
Seriously, do I understand this correctly...speech?????

To the List members, and Shane;
Please accept my aplogies for a completely braindead and utterly
insensitive, ignorant post re: Pine with speech.
I misread and completely misunderstood the significance of "Pine with
Speech" and i aplogize to Shane and my fellow list members for stupidity,
fatigue induced ignorance, and foolishness in general.
-Colin.

Thanks very much for pointing that out.  Another feature I was unaware of.

One thing that is a little odd, at least seemingly so.

When I read the online help for that, it says:

	The default is equivalent to:

index-format=STATUS@MSGNO@DATE@FROMORTO(33%)@SIZE@SUBJECT(67%)

	Except the @ symbols are actually the little "c in a circle" aka the  
Copyright symbol.
	
	When I copied&pasted that in PINE, it turned them into @ symbols
	
	When I copied&pasted that into this email message (not PINE) it  
turned them into ( marks.
	
	What are they supposed to be?  It seems to work with just spaces in  
there but I wasn't sure if there was something else that was supposed to be  
there, since there's apparently some symbol in the default.
	
	Thanks
		TjL

You should put spaces between the element names.  This is in the help
also.
