I mean, if the default is nil, it will not work at all if I have the old imtest, and will work but with line length problems (that's all right?) with the new imtest. If the default is t, it will work but have line length problems regardless of imtest version. But perhaps it's better to have something that works completely when using the latest software, and forcing users with old software to flip a variable -- instead of forcing people with new software to flip the variable. Ok, I convinced myself. Committed. > * http://www.gnus.org/list-archives/ding/200012/msg00414.html > > It seems to me this has not been applied yet. Oops, I had completely missed this one.
