To me, it looks like your personal preferences
The colors perhaps yes. But the standard pine is harder to use for professionals; things like threading, external editor, Select/Apply key, relaxed movement, and a lot of what I take for granted every day.
If at all, I would not change them by adding a default config file with many other settings, but change the defaults directly in the option table.
That would mean I'd have to recompile it. (Ignoring the fact that lbuild does it anyway), but other people could just copy the pine.conf to /etc to make their pine system that way without having to recompile it. (Ignoring the fact that they could just install the RPM anyway... but think outside of SUSE.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
