-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Heijo,
@30 July 2002, 12:00 +0200 (11:00 UK time) Heijo Alting [HA] in [EMAIL PROTECTED]">mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to Marck D Pearlstone: MDP>> Use the %ABtoMEMO macro. More specifically, MDP>> %LANGUAGE="%ABtoMEMO" HA> The macros you mention (%ABtoMEMO and %LANGUAGE) are not in the HA> list that is displayed in the Properties dialog box. That may be because the combinations are too numerous to list there. HA> Is there a document in which I could find information on these HA> additional macros? Yes - the Help file! All macros are documented. Look for "Macros" in the index. HA> And does this document explain in more detail how these macros can HA> be put to work in a template? Not really. I recommend the FAQ on the subject: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/macros.html http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/templates.html HA> How does one write "if the value of the Memo field is equal to A, HA> then use template B" in the regex language? For one thing, you can't invoke templates; you have to use Quick Templates. The result is something like this: %if:"%ABtoMEMO"=="A":"%QINCLUDE='B'":"%QINCLUDE='C'" HA> What's trim quote Trimming non-essential text from the quoted material. That keeps replies short and to the point. I have done so here. HA> and what's top quote? Top quoting is a terrible habit[*] picked up by users MS OE etc. and involves writing replies all at the top of the message, have a block of "Original Message ------" followed by some header information and then quoting the *entire* original message below that point (ugly and illegible). [* Some business environments require** this method] [** I dispute this and maintain that a good dose of education could dispel this bad habit <g>] HA> The line length is now 72. Much better. HA> ... Hopefully, Tha Bat wil get an extra Editor preference option HA> for alternate editing behavior. It has - "Auto Format". You have to leave a clear blank line between paragraphs (as I have here) for it to work sensibly. You can toggle it on and off (so that you can type lists etc. without the short lines being auto-wrapped) using the Ctrl-Shift-F shortcut. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v1.62/Beta1 on Windows 2000 5.0.2195 Service Pack 2 ' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.1.90-nr1 (Windows 2000) iD8DBQE9Rm1xOeQkq5KdzaARAk/nAJ9vFnJDoNLxepWfvHrMNaxqRwhdIQCgr618 JbQxmC50+xE639MjJeCbeJ4= =MRUN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.61 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] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/
