html mail...

[Janina Sajka]

Hi, Pete:

Attached herewith is my .pinerc file. You'll find your highlight tracks if 
you use it. Of course you could set cursor tracking yourself and that 
would do it as well, but someone was saying something about sharing. I've 
shared this before, and I'm sure I'll be delighted to share it again. And, 
if and when I get around to writing the filter for the char set warnings, 
I'll certainly include them. And, if someone else figures that out first, 
please share it. Etc.

Now, if Pine was just GPL ... But it's not, so maybe it's time to try 
mutt.
