- 3.1 still have one last bug with mangling the active file, which is fixed
- here. Please sort your active file until Fred v. Kempen distributes
- his next release, where my fixes are merged. Here an example, of what goes
- wrong:
- alt.sources.bugs xxxxx yyyyy y
- alt.sources xxxxx yyyyy y
- An article received for alt.sources rewrites xxxxx at the right columne,
- but unfortunately in the line with alt.sources.bugs. Sort the file
- so that it looks like:
- alt.sources xxxxx yyyyy y
- alt.sources.bugs xxxxx yyyyy y
- and all wents well.
