Subject: using select->text

Hi.
I'm a pine newbie using PC-Pine 4.51. I like it a lot. I'm having some
problems, though and I couldn't find help on the web or in the archives.

Right now, the biggest problem is that using select->text isn't working
for me.

If I go to my Inbox, and hit
 ;ts^X
 (select text current subject)

nothing is selected. One would think that at least the current message
would be selected. All of the other kinds of selection (date, number, size
, etc) work, but none of the text ones do.

My inbox is my imap/Inbox

Thanks in advance!
Adam Wolff

Could it be that ^X is taken by something else?

If you do

$ stty -a

will then something be "atached" to ^X?

No, I'm afraid that's not it -- I just used ^X as an example. I can't get
text search to work no matter what I search for.

You might try running "pine -d9", doing the search, then check the debug
file for illuminating comments.
