I posted to Usenet alt.comics,alt.comics.fandom,rec.arts.comics.misc recently. I edited my post in text editor because after I saved draft in Pan, there seemed no way to reopen that worked. Maybe text editor crashed but I ended up using cat & more in shell to view post then copied & pasted in the several sections favourite comic books, artists/writers. I don't know if the problem was something in copying & pasting (shell to XFCE clipboard did) or Pan, but each section's first line's newline was removed, and some sections had several newlines removed. Is it perhaps a shell problem if you process much text, it's not always responsive so special/control characters don't always go through? I notice this sort of thing in telnet, rsh, ssh, you might have to press <DEL> or <BKSP> or arrow keys several or even many times but only a few will get through, or you might be waiting a long time, retype some words/ sections but sometimes only a second or third instance will go through... sometimes it takes a few minutes to type something pretty short if connection is slow... _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
