Correct.
However, the 1.54/1.60 series introduces a new concept in macros -
recursion. There are some nice recursive macros to do multi-paragraph
wrapping using a couple of quick templates that look like this:
,- [ wq ]
| %COMMENT="%QUOTES"%-
| %QINCLUDE="wrap2"
| %COMMENT=""
`-
,- [ wrap2 ]
| %IF:'%-
| %SETPATTREGEXP="(?is-m)[^\n]+"%-
| %REGEXPMATCH="%COMMENT"'<>'':'%-
| %-
| %WRAPPED=_%SETPATTREGEXP="(?is-m)^(.*?)(\n((\w{0,5}(\>\s*)+)?\n)+(.*)$|\z)"%-
| %-%-%-%-%-%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%COMMENT"%-
| %-%-%-%-%-%SUBPATT="1"_
|
| %COMMENT=_%SETPATTREGEXP="(?is-m)^.*?(\n((\w{0,5}(\>\s*)+)?\n)+(.*)$|\z)"%-
| %-%-%-%-%-%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%COMMENT"%-
| %-%-%-%-%-%SUBPATT="5"_%-
| %QINCLUDE="wrap2"'
`-
The wq template produces wrapped quotes. We can extrapolate one that
will plain-text wrap a file like this:
,- [ wf ]
| %COMMENT="%PUT='c:\foo.txt'"%-
| %QINCLUDE="wrap2"
| %COMMENT=""
`-
To make that a little more flexible, we can grab a filename from the
clipboard instead, so the procedure for add a wrapped file becomes:
1) type the filename
2) cut the filename to the clipboard
3) type 'wfc' .
4) grin widely and carry on typing the message.
,- [ wfc ]
| %COMMENT="%PUT='%CLIPBOARD'"%-
| %QINCLUDE="wrap2"
| %COMMENT=""
`-
Does that help?

The text > of the include file is included so is finding the file..just not > wrapping Seems that the wrapping stops upon the first occurrence of a blank line. It may be due to the limitation of TB's editor, which doesn't distinguish between soft and hard return. Even manually formatting of more than one paragraph together results in loss of blank lines. PS. The best macro to use for your purpose is %PUT instead of %INCLUDE. Sadly it doesn't do wrapping correctly either. -- Regards, Anthony Current Ver: 1.60c FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Cookies have to be in one long line anyway, regardless if you use TB!'s internal cookie management or a separate file. You can wrap cookies either automatically (with the %WRAPPED macro) or by hand as you wish it to be broken up with the parameter "\n" ((without quotation marks)). -- Dierk Haasis http://www.Write4U.de http://Interest.Write4U.de/pongo PGP keys available: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=SendMyPGPkeys The Bat 1.60c on Windows 95 4.0 1212 C Marriage is a wonderful institution, but who wants to live in an institution?

Re: Pasted Text reflow
Hello Dave, %WRAPPED or %WRAPJUSTIFY is perhaps what you are looking for. The quick template may resemble the below: %WRAPPED="%INCLUDE='c:\foo.txt'" On 1 Apr 2002 21:34:58 [GMT -0700] (which was 02 Apr 2002 12:34:58 where I live) you wrote: > I may be missing the obvious as a newbie...but is there a way to include > this reflow in a new message template that pastes text from a file?

Hello Marck, On Monday, April 1, 2002, at 10:19:08 AM (-0700), you typed the following in reference to "Pasted Text reflow": > Yes - Paste formatted. That is hidden in the Edit menu of the Message Editor Toolbar. I wonder how difficult it would be to include that command on the right click context menu alongside 'Paste' and 'Past as Quotation'? Would it not make more sense there?
