- System: rn version 4.3
- Patch #: 24
- Priority: INFINITESIMAL
- Subject: tailorable mail call string
- >From: msb@lsuc.UUCP (Mark Brader)
-
- Description:
- Some users don't like the prompt "(Mail)" when there's new mail.
- In order to tailor that they may now define the variable MAILCALL.
-
- Fix: From rn, say "| patch -d DIR", where DIR is your rn source directory.
- Outside of rn, say "cd DIR; patch <thisarticle". If you don't have
- the patch program, apply the following by hand, or get patch.
-
- If patch indicates that patchlevel is the wrong version, you may need
- to apply one or more previous patches, or the patch may already
- have been applied. See the patchlevel file to find out what has or
- has not been applied. In any event, don't continue with the patch.
