Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Library (Lib) >Group: Python 2.6 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Sjoerd Mullender (sjoerd) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: mhlib does not obey MHCONTEXT env var Initial Comment: All programs in the (N)MH suite of programs use the MHCONTEXT environment variable to find the so-called context file where the current folder is remembered. mhlib should do the same, so that it can be used in combination with the standard (N)MH programs. Also, when writing the context file, mhlib should replace the Current-Folder line but keep the other lines in tact. The attached patch fixes both problems. It introduces a new method for the class MH called getcontextfile which uses the MHCONTEXT environment variable to find the context file, and it uses the already existing function updateline to update the context file. Some questions concerning this patch: - should I document the new method or should it be an internal method only? - should the fix be ported to older Python versions? With the patch it does behave differently if you have an MHCONTEXT environment variable. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: A.M. Kuchling (akuchling) Date: 2006-12-22 13:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=11375 Originator: NO The patch looks OK. Regarding your questions: 1) I think the method should be documented; it might be useful to subclasses of MH. 2) New feature, so 2.6 only. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sjoerd Mullender (sjoerd) Date: 2003-02-13 04:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=43607 I can assure you that I did check that checkmark. Maybe it's my browser in combination with SF. We'll see if it works this time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2003-02-12 22:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 There's no uploaded file! You have to check the checkbox labeled "Check to Upload & Attach File" when you upload a file. Please try again. (This is a SourceForge annoyance that we can do nothing about. :-( ) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=675976&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
