--- Begin Message ---Package: slrnface Version: 2.1.1-2 Tags: patch Currently slrnface package forces the "h" key to call slrnface->my_hide_article ie. decreases slrn's configurability. Ideally it would automatically change all and only the keys bound to hide_article to call its function instead. But it seems impossible with current slrn. So I'd suggest a simple patch. Or maybe something more complicated would ba appropriate, like reading a configuration file? But this simple change would be definitely enough for me. --- /usr/share/slrn/macros/slrnface.sl 2002-09-09 18:01:45.000000000 +0200 +++ /home/mike/.slrn.sl/slrnface.sl 2002-09-29 23:04:28.000000000 +0200 @@ -18,6 +18,7 @@ implements ("slrnface"); variable fp; % Pipe to slrnface +variable hide_key = NULL; define clear () { @@ -76,6 +77,11 @@ fp = NULL; + if (hide_key == NULL) + { + hide_key = "h"; + } + home = make_home_filename (".slrnfaces"); if (home == NULL) { @@ -161,7 +167,7 @@ register_hook ("supersede_hook", "slrnface->clear"); register_hook ("read_article_hook", "slrnface->read"); - definekey ("slrnface->my_hide_article", "h", "article"); + definekey ("slrnface->my_hide_article", hide_key, "article"); return; } else -- Michał Politowski -- [email protected] Warning: this is a memetically modified message
