So Im trying to solve a problem with procmail (anybody and expert??) anyway in trying to diagnose the problem I can get one .procmailrc file to work and another to not work. I have noticed that in vi (yes Im living in the past I guess, but I love it), I have noticed that in the file that does work the file is all white but the file that is not working has coloured text in it. eg it is being detected as a certain type of file and colouring is based on this. (I hope you know what I mean.)
Anyway, I'm wondering if this is telling me that one file is being seen as one type of file where as the other file is being seen as another type of file and maybe thats why its not being working properly. However when I do a file command on both the files, the one that works and does not work they both come up as ASCII English text, with CRLF, LF line terminators Why am I getting no colour in one (the one that works oddly enough) and colour in the other, despite the fact that they seem to be the same type of file. (I do understand just to be clear what the colour thing is eg script files or what ever have various colours associated with them a lot like say a C compiler for example, sort of.
