  • Re: qwk network message formatting

    From Analog@21:2/123 to ryan on Thu Mar 5 18:01:49 2020
    I think there's an issue with linewrapping of messages that originate
    from qwk based networks.

    Ryan/g00r00,

    I too have this issue. I figured it was an artifact of QWK and Synchronet echos. I'll be interested to see what the internal issue ends up being.

    Cheers,

    I suspect its their editor sends things out on the 80th column and Mystic's template by default stops it at the 79th for terminal compatibility.

    But then again if that is the case we should see it in echomail too as it'd
    be an artifact of what Synchronet/Mystic are doing not QWK itself.
