    I think it's the external editor script that does that, it doesn't seem to happen with mbse's internal editor..

    I've looked at that but could never come to any conclusions as to what is happening. I wonder if the script is confused about how many lines are
    actually on the screen?

    Hi, Alan-

    I've looked at that but could never come to any conclusions as to what is happening. I wonder if the script is confused about how many lines are actually on the screen?

    Andrew and I are taking a look at it.

    I am right now in the midst of job hunting and am temporarily living with my parents, so I'm not doing a lot of BBS work right now. However, when I get
    an actual desktop system back up (I am on my ancient but beloved ASUS EeePC
    900 running Slackware 14.1 in all of its 7" screen glory :) ), I've several things I'm going to be working on in MBSE to fix. I want to get the guest account working and enable downloading messages by date and pointer
    resetting too.

    All in time.

    But at least I can work on it. I don't know a lot of C, but all of my years
    in Pascal have enabled me to kludge my way through it.

    Could you please post your logrotate script for MBSE again for me? I thought I had it backed up but evidently I didn't ...

    Hello Vincent,

    I know I have asked you at least three times about this over the years but could you post your logrotate script setup once more so I can put it into the new docs, please? I am trying to get everything together now so I can put it in when I get to the right section.
