Ah. The email I quoted (or possibly one of the others in the thread, as I've not kept all of them) contains in its raw form: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------UV9t08ohcUgOfViJQN0sYfFC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Given the following Rexx program: a=.array~new /a[1,1]="a"/ /* first usage, makes array a two dimensional array */ /*a[4,5]="b"*/ so the enclosing slashes are definitely present in the supposedly plain text part of the mail. If Rony is writing his text in rich text form, how does the plain text part of his mail get created? Presumably there's some sort of automatic translation going on? Does he need to mark up the rich-text part differently, eg labelling the snippets of code as, well, code? -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own. _______________________________________________ Oorexx-devel mailing list Oorexx-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/oorexx-devel
