Someone kept saying that tbird would work and I kept asking how. What I finally got was: a. enable html-formatted email (unintuirive, I had disabled it) b. for the body text, select Fixed Width c. copy-and-paste the patch I tested it one time and it worked. But as long as Andrew accepts text/plain attachments, that works for him. Makes it difficult to review them in some mail clients... --- ~Randy - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
