Re: Re : Tux cups
Sun 12.May'13 at 15:41:11 -0600, Evan Root So Stuart, I was looking at the OpenBSD mailing list rules because I wasn't sure about long links and I saw that lines over 72 characters are discouraged, that's were I decided to manually put in line breaks. :/ Although your point about a direct link to something that isn't google is a valid point. Question for everybody that uses console mailers; Does Mutt and the other text based mailers have line wrap enabled by default? or do they go off the edge mutt and console MUA's usually use an external editor, $VISUAL, usually vi(1). The text will just continue to the width of you terminal and then wrap the line on to the next row. Vim, can automatically be set to wrap lines i believe, i don't use it though, I just use the base vi(1) and then fmt(1) to format the text. Same for mail(1) if use the command to write in an external editor. So, the answer is no - the mutt and console MUA's don't do text formatting; the editor does.

Re: Re : Tux cups
The intention with my original email was actually to be kind of funny but the smiley got lost somehow.. It would be nice to see OpenBSD being branded in output from the system itself like it does on the xdm login screen (or at least that it doesn't output linux'ism), but even I realize that there are probably more important priorities out there.
