Subject: Viewing only selected?

Just saw the response about ;ta (*)..  And I had to search around to figure
out why I couldn't SEE the selected items.. (I had bold for selected turned on
but this terminal emulator isn't showing bold -- I think because I set it
to use the same colors for bold and unbold!)..

anyway, is there any way I can then list ONLY the selected items, or
sort by selected/unselected? (I see no obvious choice in the $ list).
Basically, I want to do the equivalent of 'E' in trn..  Just show the selected
messages.

(*) not trying to be a whiner, but it really would be cool if we could do
a full-text search (even if it required a separate question at the 'w' 
prompt, preferably defaulting to the existing behavior) from the 'w'
prompt, to just JUMP to the next message that fits the selection.

Try pressing "Z" for "zooming" into those selected messages. Pressing "Z"
once more will default to your index showing in bold those selected
messages. You can also stop Pine from using bold and write a "X" in the
left margin if you unselect [X] show-selected-in-boldface.  There is an
option called [X] auto-zoom-after-select which will do what it says for
you.
