The problem occurs when doing a block reflow!              Hop over to FIDOTEST. One message to observe the result is this one:               EMP: /FIDO/FIDOTEST        ABS: Michiel van der Vlist@2:280/5555        BET: High ASCII in Fidonet        MID: 2:280/5555 5dadb8a8              BTW, OXP does a great job generating the 4-letter quote prefix for        "Michiel van der Vlist"              When that message is quoted, there will be two lines that begin with        "MvdV>". When the block is selected and reflowed, the staggering        happens.              Reflow does not have this problem with 2-initial quoted lines.                             ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.40        * Origin: o,,,,o§ø`ø§o,,,,o§ø`ø§o,,,,o (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/2 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 227/114 229/354 426 1014       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 292/854 310/31 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120 712/848 770/1 2452/250       PATH: 221/1 280/464 229/426           |
