[Pan-users] [PATCH] configurable quoting character

[Toby Inkster]

The attached patch allows the user to configure their quoting character through 
Tools >> Posting Profiles. The default character is still ">".

It also fixes a small bug when quoting messages: 

The standard behaviour for Pan is to quote all lines with "> ", unless the line 
begins with a ">" already. 

This seems sensible enough, but surely it is better instead to test if the line 
starts with *any* recognised quoting character -- ie: ">" or "|" or ":" or "}" 
for example.

The fix tests using the is_quote_char function already defined in 
pan/base/base-prefs.h instead of just checking for a ">" at the start of the 
line.

Patch is against 0.12.93. Any chance of it getting into the main package? :-)

Also attached, two *tiny* pictures of the effects of the patch.
