I'm at the last line I scrolled to in the history buffer, not the last line I 'entered'. You entered it through cycling to it+1. You aborted the current action which leaves the history pointer at current-action -1 . Surely an aborted operation should not change the state of the history buffer. It seems strange, but if you think about it then it is logical. Not to me :-) I've also noticed that the history is cleared when the history buffer is full, rather than just deleting the least recent item. I'm curious if this is the desired behaviour.

line editor command history behavior
I've just noticed that if you are cycling through the command history and abort with a ^G, the next time you invoke the line editor you are placed at the point in history list at which you aborted. example: :command 1 :command 2 :command 3 :command 4 :command 5 cycle up the history to 'command 3', abort and invoke the line editor again. Hit the Up key and you are at 'command 2' which is not the last command you entered. This seems a little strange to me and I was wondering if it was intentional. Regards, Doug

Try this
# Use mutt.editor as our editor
set editor=vim +':set textwidth=65' +':set wrap' +\`awk '/^$/ {print i+2; exit}
{i++}' %s\` %s
You could replace the awk invocation with +'/^$/+1'

Yep, just found it.sorry :) Apparently I failed to notice that the install, correctly, didn't set mutt_dotlock setgid. Thanks, Doug

You can hit TAB at the address prompts and mutt will bring up an alias menu from which you can select 'He of the Evil Empire'. I'm sure this is in the manual somewhere. Regards, Doug
index format
Hello all, Is there some way to to set the index format so that it strips certain characters from the subject( %s ) ? eg. I'd like to strip the leading [...] from the subject [ruby-talk:15734] java based interpreter and regexes Any ideas ? Thanks, Doug

I'd like to strip the leading [...] from the subject [ruby-talk:15734] java based interpreter and regexes There is no way to do it in mutt, as the format strings available for index_format don't allow access to substrings. But you can do this in procmail: :0 fhw * ^Subject:[ ]*\[[^]]*\][]\/.* | formail -I Subject: $MATCH The empty bracket pairs contain a space and a tab each. Thanks. I didn't want to actually strip it - just didn't want to have to look at it in the index. I find subject strings of this type to be too 'noisy'. Regards, Doug
