Hello Maurice!
MK> I wasn`t referring to just the quote initials when commenting
on distinguishing quotes from the rest of the MSG. Instead to the
entire quoting prefix whether or not there are initials, spaces, etc.
within the prefix. According to
http://ftsc.org/docs/fsc-0032.001;
The problem with that ftsc proposal is that it doesn`t define
what a "line" is. Is it like I just used it in my above quote?
Or.. is "line" 30-40 characaters, or something?
>> Newly quoted text should be preceeded by the a single space,
a greater than symbol (`>`) and another space.
Well.. my quoted parts above follow that rule.
MK> As for the threading codes, I am assuming you are referring to
MK> MSGID/REPLY, which in the case of this REPLY, will work..
Yes.. that is what I meant. The official terms escaped me at
the time of writing.
MK> ..but will not work if a proper MSGID doesn`t exist in the
MK> MSG one is REPLYing to. Also quotes can exist in posts
MK> that aren`t a REPLY.
Ah.. then some intelligence could be built into the quoting
system to prompt for quoting or not. If a MSGID is present in
the original, then offer quoting as an option. If no MSGID is
present, then proceed with a quoting method.
I may be mistaken but I believe the QWK messages do not have
MSGIDs produced at the source.
