I'll replace the call to nanosleep with calls to usleep instead. This
should fix the problem.

The problem here is that Tk does not provide any commands to set a color
image as icon. So TkRat just sets a monochrome one (found in
misc/tkrat.xbm).

But I did a quick search and there seems to be a nifty workaround. I'll
try to implement the fix in the 2.2-branch shortly. Unfortunately I will
not have time to work on TkRat for the next week or so. So it will take
a little while.

Before, you could do a <RightClick> to select a message and then a

The middle mouse button now selects/deselects messages.  However, when I
tried it, the shift modifier does not have any additional effect.  I
also tried ctrl and alt but with the same result.

It would be nice to select a group of messages in the manner you
mention.

Well, the functionality was gone. But I just reinstated it so Shift-B2
which toggle the flagging of all messages since the last flagged
message.

I am also thinking of doing another change. Currently when you flag a
range or just drag it actually just inverts the flagging status of each
message. So if you have one message which is already flagged and flag a
range containing this message it will actually get unflagged. I am
considering changing this so the range operations (including drag)
always sets the flag to the same value as the base got set to (the
message the operation started at). That is the flag of the first message
would be toggled but all others would be set to the same value as the
first. Opinions?

Message-ID: <E19uuxr-0006JK-00@telin.telin>


Hello everyone,


Printing a message sent by someone who does not use line wrapping
at around the 75th character (as most clients should do) makes a
very ugly print, with words wrapped at the character.

The following line is the same as above but without line
wrapping. Try to print the message and compare the layout.

Hello,

Recently started using tkrat.  When I start tkrat it fills the entire screen
and the bottom goes beyond my terminal window.  How can I control the
initial startup window size.

The client is running on FreeBSD 4.8 using fluxbox as the window manager.

The Xserver is running on windows 2000 using cygwin Xfree86.  I beleive
cygwin uses the current windows resolution.  The resolution is set at
1024x768.  I don't want to increase the resolution on the windows side.

Any input would be great.

Thanks...btb

Admin -> Preferences... -> Options -> Advanced -> Behaviour

Set "Window geometry" to "Do remember". This way tkrat will start
using the window size like it was when you quitted tkrat last time.

This may break sometimes. Edit .ratatosk/placement then.

Subject: Using tkrat searches
Message-ID: <3374.67.39.169.194.1063641445.squirrel@smtp.dbprograms.com>

Hello all,

The use of tkrat in my circumstance is somewhat unorthodox.  The company I
work for archives email for its users.

The original configuration would cc all mail for each user into a file
something like $LOGNAME.backup for inbound mail only with a procmail
recipe.

The need of an x11 client like tkrat to be able to read from a file was
the solution.

We since have configured a sendmail milter that will copy all inbound and
outbound for all users to a single file.

Is it possible to use tkrat to search this large file by To: or From: and
copy that to a seperate file or simply display the search results in the
message list?

Thanks

No, not without some hacking. However this sounds much like the TkRat
database way of storing messages. In that case TkRat builds an
index-file which contains all the to and from lines (plus some more) for
easy searching.

So if you moved all the messages in your file into the TkRat database
then you could do what you want.

Internally the database stores each message as a plain text file and it
is possible to just cat them together to form a traditional mailbox.

Sure, but you can also define a virtual folder which executes the search

can be word(s) in subject and to/from/cc.

Yes, IIRC the parameters are hardcoded into tkrat.

I don't have experience with zsh, so I don't know what effects *that* 
produces. Ignoring that aspect for the moment, however, inserting a 
wrapper a la

#!/bin/sh
shift
exec opera -newwindow `echo $* | sed -e 's/^[^(]*(//' -e 's/,[^,]*$//'`
exit 1

should be a reasonable first attempt ...

(Possibly not the *final* version, though, because it'll choke on 
various shell metacharacters. Might be better to put it in C.)

Hi

I would like to ask the TkRat community a question to about
compiling TkRat.

I have used TkRat for several years and I think it's a very nice
e-mail client but now I have a problem installing new versions.
I have never had any problems with compiling TkRat but after
upgrading my SuSE Linux system from 7.x to 8.x I get error's 
during compilation.

I think this has something to do with that 8.x includes tcl/tk 8.4
but I'm not sure. I have asked Martin about this and he has been 
very helpful but as it is a SuSE problem, I think, he suggested
that I should ask you.

The error happen when the compilation comes to the
tkrat/lib/ratAppInit.c -file.

So if you have any idea what this depend on please give me a hint.

Thanks

Hi Thomas!

I've been successfully compiling TkRat on various SuSE versions for a
long, long time. Currently I am using the CVS version of TkRat with SuSE
8.2.

So there's no general problem with TkRat on SuSE.

Maybe you are just missing some of the "-devel" packages?
If you like I can take a look at your compile messages. Maybe I can give
you a hint or even solve your problem.

Cheers,
Enno.

I have now placed TkRat version 2.1.2 on the website (www.tkrat.org).
THis is a small maintenance upgrade to the 2.1-branch. It fixes a number

030923: (feature) Work around bugs in tcl/tk which prevented build. Also
	fixed some const-issues which also prevented building.

030611: (bug fix) Handle localized characters as well as () in subject
	when doing pretty-print.

030528: (bug fix) Escape non us-ascii characters when pretty-printing.

030408: (feature) Applied speedup patch by Don Lewis.

030217: (bug fix) Avoid core-dump on bad Delivery Status Notifications.

Whoah... I'd fallen behind on the list and missed that, but many thanks to Don
for writing it and you for including it.  

I'd actually stopped using tkrat and fell back to mozilla mail for almost
a year because I'd gotten tired of waiting on tkrat to do lookups (we use NIS
here and when my box was a nisslave, it was bareable, but when we moved to
specific slaves, the performance went down the toilet).  Boxes that would sit
there getting data for 30+ seconds (sometimes over a minute) now take less
then 2 seconds!

Now if I can just figure out why tclsh is core dumping when building tkrat on
linux (working fine on solaris) I'll have our systems sync'd here.

That is now set on a Role-basis. In other words, you may have
multiple "sent-mail" folders for distinct identities.

So, edit your Role(s) and choose where you want to save the
outgoing messages (Admin->Preferences->Roles).

But I believe that was already the case with 2.1 (maybe you were
with 2.0)

Are you reusing the same build tree without making a distclean between
architectures? That could really mess things up.

Before I fixed this, tkrat was pretty much unusable on my larger folders
(20 - 60k messages).  I'm hoping to do a similar speedup for the
threaded sort.  There are some more possible optimizations that will
make performance even better.

I'd also like to see if I can trim the memory consumption, though this
is less of an issue for me now that I've configured my primary machines
with sufficient RAM and swap.

No.. it's not that.  Long story short, we use AFS here to distribute binaries
amongst hosts, so I'm putting tcl/tk and tkrat in different prefixes in our
AFS tree.  Makes getting some programs a real bitch because they tend to like
being in either /usr or /usr/local (basically local disk). 

Has nothing to do with tkrat at all anyway.. seems to be tclsh core dumping on
me.

Not to mention the convoluted environment I often have, I have to make .cshrc
files just for compilations that remove most of my personal stuff so that I
don't make programs reliant on my stuff when I'm releasing it for general
users.
