done robert elz said i suspect that as part of chris set of changes he cleaned up the use of the variable that was named l in ftoccommit in ftoc tcl its name got changed from l to lineno but there s one reference of l left that causes tracebacks if you attempt to use link with the current cvs version of exmh i guess that most of us don t use link very often i noticed it last week but only got time to look and see why today if someone with the ability to commit to the cvs repository would apply the following patch to lib ftoc tcl that would be nice it works and is trivial and you could perhaps just apply it by making the change with an editor faster than saving this patch and applying it there s only one instance of l in the file that should be changed to lineno kre ftoc tcl prev wed aug NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER ftoc tcl tue sep NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER incr ftoc nummsgs NUMBER else ftocunmarkinner l ftocunmarkinner lineno incr ftoc changed NUMBER if delmsgs _exmh_NUMBER brent welch software architect panasas inc pioneering the world s most scalable and agile storage network URL welch URL _______________________________________________ exmh users mailing list exmh users URL URL
