pine!

November 22nd, 2002 by Hen

I’ve spent the last week complaining at a canuck friend that I want threading in pine, while he tried to convince me to move to mutt.

And tonight the Uni of Washington release Pine 4.50..with threading!!!
Installed it on my home file server….
I’m addicted. First time I can think of that a piece of slashdot news affected me that much.

Although pine suggests it has a SuSE mode, I found the ’slx’ standard linux one was the one that worked locally for my user. On my server, I had to link /usr/lib/libncurses.so over to 5.2 of this in /lib. It also fails to see openssl is installed, so I’ll have to hunt that down a bit.

To sort by thread: $ then H
To collapse and expand in this mode: /

Will have to see how new mails appear etc. I assume the thread gains an N.
Thankyou Pine people :)
