True. copy and paste won't work though. > Heh. The only thing that really bugs me is when I get signed patches, > like you send.

Right arrow -> (vi directional keys to choose right attachement) -> "s". This is one of many reasons mutt rules - native PGP/Mime support. Or am I misunderstanding your workflow? NOTE: What follows is an interesting observation and thought... NOT an invitation for people to start an argument about whether people should sign patches. <observation> When Linus designed his Signed-off-by system, he'd originally talked about using PGP, but had a few reasons he chose not to... as I recall, one of them was, if your going to use PGP as a method of tracking and validation, which is great, you gotta store that somewhere, and writing something to track all that was a lot more work then just adding a Signed-off-by line. But I think it woulda been cool. It's nice to know that no one can send a patch that gets attributed to me that I didn't write. </observation> That said, once again... the above was just an interesting observation, I'm sure Greg doesn't want a flame-fest about pgp-vs-signedoffby-vs-smime-vs-nothing-vs-yourfavoritething. -- Phil Dibowitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] Freeware and Technical Pages Insanity Palace of Metallica http://www.phildev.net/ http://www.ipom.com/ "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss
