Hey Nicholas!

 NB> Consider this my first post to you using nano straight from the

It looks perfect from this angle.  I note that your paragraphs are unbounded as
they should be.

 NB> For the record, "usr/bin/vim -Z" is also being tested here with

I would prefer that but I understand that nano would be mnch easier to use for
most users.

 NB> What issue would that be?

On new posts I am seeing hard returns at the end of the line - ~100 characters
in my case.  I'll post an unfixed example later today to show you what happens.
 I haven't applied the softwrap.breakpt.5057.patch you told me about way back
when but will try that to see what happens with v2.5.3.

 NB> You would think they would've gotten that right by now? :)

I am unsure anyone is all that concerned about it as they probably have a set
line length in messaging just like mom used to do.  Usually it was set to 72
characters to match the line printers of yore.

 NB> And here's a test post using vim from the BBS!

:-)

Interesting.  Are you using the gui version?  I am not aware of any key
combinations in vim that might interfere or conflict with the usual BBS ones.

Let me know about softwrap.breakpt.5057.patch as I'll have to document where I
got it from if it turns out to be an absolute must have regarding this and
future issues using nano for fidonet messaging.

Life is good,
Maurice
