This addition to my .login file allows me to append my .signature file to mail replies with a single character command: "V". And, it works outside of the news s/w; you can use it for all of your mail. Note: this works with sys 3. I think minor mods are required in the syntax for other versions. Check your shell documentation. As usual, "^M" means Control-M, etc. setenv EXINIT 'map V :$r /usr/jeff/.signatureMO^D----^[' This also undoes the "vi" bug which causes it to think a file has not been modified following a ":w" or ":r" command (the insert of "-----" does it.) Isn't Unix great? You can mold it to fit any whims! -- /"""\ Jeffrey Mattox, Heurikon Corp, Madison, WI |O.O| {harpo, hao, philabs}!seismo!uwvax!heurikon!jeff (news & mail) \_=_/ ihnp4!heurikon!jeff (mail - fast)
