    I'm able to quote his message with SlyEdit; not seeing any problems here.. It looks like we're using the same version of SlyEdit, too (the headers show you're using SlyEdit 1.90b Ice style).

    Weird. I wasn't able to quote any of kk4qbn's text in my previous message - it just didn't show up in the quote selection box - however I was able to quote the quoted text from his message.

    Are your other JS files up to date? SlyEdit uses dd_lightbar_menu.js (in exec/load) for the quote selection box - I have made updates to that to fix issues when I see them, though I doubt anything there would cause this issue.

    I went back and checked that message and it is a possibility that I was using just the regular line editor to write the original message to DM, that could be the issue. I don't know why it would be, but I don't think

    Scratch That, for some reason I missed the header info in the original message, I was using Slyedit, I swear the last time I looked it showed no editor in the header info.. <shrug>

    What does QWK prepack do?

    Allows a sysop to have their system preemptively create QWK packets for specific users (e.g. QWKnet nodes), nightly.

    Once upon a time, creating a QWK packet took a measurable amount of time (exporting the messages to QWK format, zipping the messages into a .QWK file), and QWKnet nodes might want to save those long-distance
    phone charges and have their packet already created and waiting for them when they made their once-a-day phone-modem call to their QWKnet hub to upload their replies (from the day before) and download their
    new
    messages in a QWK packet. I doubt anybody needs this optimization any more.

    I have one dial up user that still uses a QWK offline reader. Hopefully they won't be impacted by this change ... ?

    If you've never heard of Pre-packed QWK, then you're not using the feature and your dial-up user won't know if it's removed. I believe this to be true of every other Synchronet system too.

    Are your other JS files up to date? SlyEdit uses dd_lightbar_menu.js (in exec/load) for the quote selection box - I have made updates to that to

    They're all of the same vintage, which is about two weeks ago. If you've fixed something since then I wouldn't have it yet, but I'll update soon.

    I made a change in dd_lightbar_menu.js about a week ago, but it was a fix for refreshing the scrollbar. I wouldn't expect that to have anything to do with the quote selection for SlyEdit.
