Hello there! I'm setting up slrn on my Raspberry Pi 2, and would like to be able to configure it so that I can have a similar default view to what I have configured in Thunderbird on my desktop PC. Specifically, I have it selected so that it shows 'threads with unread posts', meaning that it shows any new / unread posts, plus any other posts in the threads even if they've been marked read before. This give me a better feel for the context of a given message, that may not always be conveyed by the quoting inside the particular post. I realize that is possible to reconstruct individual threads, and thats what I'm currently doing. I noticed this blurb in the slrn FAQ: I want to see full threads as soon as they contain at least one unread article. Can slrn do this? >"This is currently not implemented, although it should be possible to >achieve such an effect using a macro. > >For many, this behaviour would be a useful compromise between the two >extremes of seeing all messages and seeing unread ones only, so this >feature might be added in a future version of slrn." Thats pretty much exactly what I want to do... I was wondering if anyone on the list might have such a macro already worked up and be willing to share it? TIA, Monte ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
