[comp.windows.x] reply insert filter in xmh under ultrix3.0

crouch@axion.bt.co.uk (chris rouch) (05/01/90)

We're using X11R4 under ultrix3.0 and are having problems with reply
insert filter. The resource is set as follows:

Xmh*replyinsertfilter:          awk -e '{print "> " $0}'

However when the insert button is pressed, nothing happens. Has anybody
come across this and managed to fix this? (N.B. The resource as set
above works fine under HPUX.)

Regards,

Chris

Pick a card. Any card. WRONG.

This works fine for me (under Ultrix 3.1) if I use replyInsertFilter
(the instance name) or ReplyInsertFilter (the class name).  Case is
significant.

> However when the insert button is pressed, nothing happens.

If this resource isn't defined by the user, the default action should be 
that the entire message is inserted, as is.

Odd.  Maybe one of us is wrong about something here.
