Hi,

thanks again for the response!  This:

is much better.  My only gripe is that the title is shown for every
single line, and with varying width.  E.g.,

,----
| = <<< Familien?hnlichkeiten | PhD: Familien?hnlichkeiten - was h?lt sich 
| = PhD: ART - G?del-L?sungen - Wurml?cher | = PhD: ART - G?del-L?sungen - 
| = PhD: Anfangs?berlegungen | = PhD: Anfangs?berlegungen
| = PhD: Chronologie | = PhD: Chronologie
| = PhD: Chronologie | Vorstehungen mit dem Dekan der KTF; konkret zum PhD-
| = PhD: Chronologie | auf Lizentiat, nicht PhD.
| = PhD: Chronologie | - falls parallel: Offene Frage, ob 3-Jahres-Dauer de
`----

Note the many lines with title "= PhD: Chronologie" where only one
might be sufficient.  Also, ideally the leading "= " might be
suppressed in displaying the title as it only takes up a lot of screen
space.  (Due to my eyes I usually work on a display with 25x80
characters, so 2 characters less are noticable.)

But at any rate, that is much better and much more usable for me than
at the beginning.  Thanks a lot!

Albert.
