Subject: Tokens

Howdy!

I have Pine 4.20 running (soon to be upgraded to 4.21) and I have set OM#
as the reply indent string. On the Help I saw that I could use several
tokens also. I have the allow editing of the string (^R), but when I type
_FROM_ to be used as the string, no replacement is made, in other words,
the message will read at the recipient client:

_FROM_ In here the test of the message being replied.
_FROM_ In here the test of the message being replied.
_FROM_ In here the test of the message being replied.

What I am doing wrong? Is that a bug or I am missing something? What
should I do to be able to use the tokens?

Cheers,

David,
  The way this works is that the tokens may be in the reply-indent-string,
but you can't add them manually by editing. Insted, the
reply-indent-string is detokenized before you are given the chance to edit
it. It makes sense that you might want to do what you're trying but we
didn't think of that when we designed it. Thanks.
