Subject: %(~cut X) is broken
Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2001 00:12:41 +0200 [thread overview]

I am using a checkout of Oort Gnus from last week. I appears that cut
maybe broken. Here is an example of a gnus-summary-line-format where
is fails:
"%-4,4P%U%R%z [%d] [%~(cut 3)d] %~(cut-right 4)d %-20,20n (%4L) %I%(%[ %-0,100s %]%)\n"
And, here is a sample of the output:
1 ! [10-Sep] [Se] 10 David S. Goldberg ( 16) [ attachments in S/MIME encrypted messages ]
As you can see, %~(cut 3)d is only printing out `Se' when all I am
doing is asking it to cut off the first three characters (which, it
does do quite well, but, Gnus does not need to be so generous).
Thanks.
