It seems some of the lines in the quote file can be wider than the user's terminal, and that may result in some lines being cut off when quoting. I've made an update which I'm testing now that should fix that - For quote lines, I should probably have SlyEdit word-wrap long lines so that they all are available in the quote window.ããI'd like to do some more testing, and I'll plan on releasing an updated SlyEdit that should fix this issue.ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã

When the quote.txt file is written, some of the lines can be longer than the user's terminal width (at least that seems to be the case when using my message reader), and when quoting those lines, some of them are cut off due to their length.
