This may be related to the same bug I'm seeing on text posts, where they show up in the overviews/headers pane, I can click on them and see the download, but PAN doesn't mark them as downloaded, and doesn't display them in the body pane either. What's strange is that even some of my own posts, made with pan 0.14.x, exhibit this behavior. I've been sick the last couple days, spending a lot of time horizontal, and when I'm vertical, my fevered and throbbing head hasn't wanted to try to tackle the issue. I do know, however, that it's in both 0.93 and 0.94, and believe it was in 0.92 as well, tho I barely tested it as it as there were enough other issues with it that the test didn't go far. With the quote-color options back in 0.94, so I can actually read the posts that do display, this is the big bug remaining before I think it'll be usable enough to do most of my news in, thus testing much more thoroughly. Charles, it looks like all the --debug options that were in 0.14 and previous are gone in 0.9x. Is the only way to debug using a tracer, now? I routinely compile with gcc-4.1.0, using these CXXFLAGS (CFLAGS are similar, but with -freorder-blocks-and-partition as well, which doesn't work so well on C++, thus the difference, -ftree-pre is new to gcc4, so doesn't work on gcc3): CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -frename-registers -funit-at-a-time -fweb -freorder-blocks -ftree-pre -fmerge-all-constants" CFLAGS are similar, but with -freorder-blocks-and-partition as well, which doesn't work so well on C++, thus the difference. -ftree-pre is new to gcc4, so doesn't work on gcc3. Yes, I know some of those (-fomit-frame-pointer on amd64, it wouldn't be on x86, and -funit-at-a-time) are redundant, but they are there in case a (Gentoo) ebuild replace-flags the -Os to something else, as some do. When I get feeling good enough to pursue it, I've been planning to recompile with simpler flags, and/or with gcc 3.4.6, to see if that changes the results. Grabbing the cached post (if possible), to compare with what 0.14's version looks like, and posting it here (the posts have been in the ISP-private cox.* heirarchy, so no posting a public reference), are also on the list, as is finding examples on a public group, for live testing by others. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
