Very Computer

can anybody tell me why I get Lines ? in the upper left corner when reading
my news with Tin?

only happens with news written by myself.

bye,
        Mathias

Solution:
If you're running CNews, search through inews for the Lines: section and
uncomment it. (assuming you can do this on your machine)

If not, and you really want this fixed, contact me. I have some patches
written locally that will make Tin add a Lines: header.

This problem is _not_ Linux related (specifically)

: Tin does not add in Lines: headers to articles posted. The default CNews
: installation has the Lines: stuff commented out in inews. If an article
: apsses through an INN sight anytime in its lifetime, a Lines: header will
: be added. Chances are, only people at your site are seeing your article
: without lines. Or maybe a few close by sites. It's not really a hassle.

Do You mean this stuff:

 lines="                       # sop to msb, just uncomment to use
 (sed 1d $inbody;               # take out the first (blank) line
 if test -r $HOME/.signature; then
        echo '-- '
        sed 4q $HOME/.signature
 fi) | wc -l "
 echo Lines: $lines

(- done -)
