Re: SV: [SLE] l = ls -l

So it seems it's just MS's quirky default setting, and maybe the OP not knowing that he could change it (if he would like to ...).

OTOH, perhaps he's running Outlook Express, and perhaps OE lacks this feature...

MSOE is always quirky. In German for example, subjects to replies are prefixed with "AW:" rather than "Re:", supposedly to stand for "Antwort" (reply). Too bad that "Re" is not an abbreviation of "reply" but Latin "res". Jan Engelhardt --
