You can use this patch to add functionality to the thread interface offered by
|
||
|
|
Alpine. It adds commands and options that control several aspects of the way
|
||
|
|
threads are presented.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* You can delete a thread, by pressing ^R (to remove), you can undelete it by
|
||
|
|
pressing ^U (without this patch, you would have to collapse the thread
|
||
|
|
before you can delete it).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* You can select and unselect a thread, by pressing ^T. This is useful if you
|
||
|
|
want to make aggregate operations on a thread, like saving it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* You can collapse or expand a particular thread by pressing [ or ]
|
||
|
|
respectively. If you want to collapse or expand ALL threads, use the
|
||
|
|
commands { and } respectively. These last two commands work only if you
|
||
|
|
have selected any of the options (*)
|
||
|
|
regular-index-with-expanded/collapsed-threads.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* You can move to the next or previous thread by pressing ) or ( respectively.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* You can sort threads by arrival, in order to do this press k a. There are
|
||
|
|
other sorts for threads by Date and by Score. If you want to have threads
|
||
|
|
permanently sorted by arrival, say, then set the variable thread-sort-key
|
||
|
|
to be arrival. You can also start Alpine with the option -threadsort
|
||
|
|
arrival to accomplish the same.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Similarly, you can sort threads by their length. In order to do this press
|
||
|
|
k z. Small threads appear at the beginning of the listing, while long
|
||
|
|
threads appear at the bottom. Threads of the same length are sorted
|
||
|
|
according to the date of their first message. In particular, single message
|
||
|
|
threads are sorted by date.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* A new configuration option was added:
|
||
|
|
[X] enhanced-fancy-thread-support
|
||
|
|
if you enable this configuration option, then all of the above commands
|
||
|
|
will act on loose threads, which are threads without parents.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The SIZETHREAD index token was added, which tells you the size of a thread,
|
||
|
|
instead of the size of the individual messages in the thread.
