          Re: slrn broken? —Mike Stanley
       (...) Hrmmm. Well, I've been doing it this way for over a week now and everyone seems to be getting my posts, so..... If you can give me a way to fix Pico (could it have something to do with me forcing it to wrap? doesn't seem to since the (...) (26 years ago, 10-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)

       (...) Hmm, might have to upgrade to the latest version of Pico -- or, Hmm, it might still be broken in later versions...dunno. (...) Well, it's just reporting false reference information which makes for incorrect thread displays. --Todd (26 years ago, 11-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)
      
           Re: slrn broken? —Mike Stanley
       (...) I'll take a look at it. I've played with other ways of moving the line back up whenever I have gotten the error, and one of them seemed to work without deleting a whole line of references, so I guess I'll have to wait and see if that fixes it.

          Thread view! —Larry Pieniazek
      Wow, this thread tree thing at the bottom is perfect! What a cool way to show where you are and let you move around. Thanks, Todd. Of course it's context free but you can't have everything. (will this show as a reply to the "slrn broken" thread or (...) (26 years ago, 11-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Thread view! —Mike Stanley
      (...) Looks like it is showing up as a new thread with lots of references. (26 years ago, 11-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Thread view! —Todd Lehman
      (...) Righto -- it's the same thread (per se), but it's a new subject-line or sub-thread on the main thread. Threads, strictly speaking, are purely reference-defined. Free Agent has a conflibberjibbet for saying whether or not you want sub-threads (...) (26 years ago, 11-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Thread view! —Mike Stanley
      (...) Yeah, that's it. I'm mainly replying to this to try to generate the error I have dealt with before. Just checked the thread thing. I'm not sure it would be obvious to most people what it is, but it seemed obvious since I was looking for it. (26 years ago, 11-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)

     (...) Ok, tell me how to fix it. :) (26 years ago, 10-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: slrn broken? —Mike Stanley
   (...) slrn has been complaining about the references line, showing it as having a blank line within it, and I didn't know why. The only way I could get it to post a followup sometimes was to just delete the blank line AND the partial line following. (...) (26 years ago, 10-Oct-98, to lugnet.admin.general)
