I'm using Alpine 2.26 from Fedora Linux's repo.

When composing a message, I used to be able to type ^W^X to delete from
the current position to the end of the message.

I admit that the sequence was quite odd: how does ^W (Whereis) logically
encompass "delete from here on"?  But I got used to that feature.

In a recent update, the feature disappeared (or became disabled).
Can I re-enable it?

Common sense says that ^^ (mark) and ^K (delete from mark to current
position) is a better choice, but my fingers know ^W^X.

Interesting, it deletes all except the signature. I might find this useful :-)


Hello,

this is a patch

https://alpineapp.email/alpine/info/DelText.html

It's included in patched version https://alpineapp.email/alpine/info/all.html
or you can apply this patch yourself.

And yes, it deletes the text to the end or to the signature begin :-) (as
described on the patch page).

Ah, then it is that the distribution changed criteria. First they published with the patch, then without.

Maybe D. Hugh can report a bug.
