Sure! Here you go:

 d0932c97
 e47b2d8e

But it seems to affect many of the messages I have, all the way back from when I re-joined FidoNet (including the rescans I acquired back then).

The oldest one I have is:

 g0> message like that at all.  I wonder if it could also be template/display

But would that also affect the export? That is, is the template for viewing used also for the export? (Not sure of the inner workings here.)

I have double-checked my theme and it inherits (= in practice, uses) both ansimrd.ans, ansieditor.ans and msg_editor.ini of the "default" theme. The only files related to messages that I override in my theme is msg_index.ans, msg_index_help.ans, msg_index.ini and msgsearch.asc, usually because of some wordings (message "areas" instead of message "bases").

I'm using 80x24 and SyncTERM 1.0, although the blank lines display via fTelnet, too (that's why I suggested viewing it through the web page).

Yep -- you're doing a terrific job, by the way, and I believe the A47 release, when it comes, will be a really good one! You have managed to iron out a large number of things, which is very good for that version.

Although of course you should take some rest in between -- especially once A47 has been released! Kind of a natural time for a "break" there.

Best regards
Bj”rn
