I noticed that a couple of recent posts I made to this list had what might be called the "=20" format problem, where this string of characters often appears at line endings, as well as some other "=" strings in other places. I don't recall experiencing this problem personally before and am puzzled as to the cause. I used the same, 3.95 version of Pine and, as with previous posts of tech documents, used the Control-R command to read in the file from my Unix shell account. If someone else has figured out the cause , and preferrably, a solution to this problem, please let us know. If it's already been explained and I missed it, I apologize., and request that the info be repeated. Thanks, Jamal VICUG-L ARCHIVES http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/vicug-l.html
