From the<U>H</U><B>elp</B> pull-downmenu, select the<U>O</U><B>n Context</B> function, then move the cursor overthe item of interest and click the mouse.<H2><A NAME="rOFI2.BsKL9X3cS">Rows, Columns, and Wrapping Text</H2><P>You can set the number of rows and columns that are shown inthe Composition window. If the text in the window needs morerows or columns than are available, scroll bars are placed on thetext area borders. If you have turned on the<B>Wrap text at right margin</B>option,<CITE>Ishmail</CITE> will reformat the text to fit the window widthrather than use a horizontal scroll bar.<P>Another way to change the size of the window is to click on theoutside window border and drag horizontally or vertically.Changes made this way do not stay in effect the next time yourun<CITE>Ishmail</CITE>.<P>With the<B>Wrap text at right margin</B> button, you can control whether<CITE>Ishmail</CITE> will insert "soft newlines" into your text as you type pastthe right margin. The effect is that the cursor will return to theleft margin, one row down.<P>You can also specify how many rows should be shown for each ofthe header fields, except the subject line (which is always a singleline). When you specify multiple addresses in the<KBD>To:</KBD>,<KBD>Cc:</KBD>,<KBD>Bcc:</KBD>, or<KBD>Fcc:</KBD> fields you can place each address on a separateline. The fields will show a vertical scroll bar if you enter moreaddresses than there are rows in the field. Similarly, you canenter multiple extra mail headers, placing each on a separateline.<H2><A NAME="1PFI2.BsKL9X3cS">Message Header Fields</H2><P>You can specify which header fields are shown, or hidden, in theComposition window. Since each field occupies space in thewindow, you can minimize the size of the Composition window byshowing only the fields you need to use. You set the default here,which can be overridden for individual messages.<P>You can also specify how many header fields are shown on asingle line. Putting multiple fields on a line reduces the verticalsize required for the composition.<H2><A NAME="6PFI2.BsKL9X3cS">Key Bindings</H2><P>You can set the bindings for short cut keys to mimic either thestandard<CITE>Motif</CITE> edit functions or the<CITE>emacs</CITE> editor functions.<P>You can also control whether the<B>Delete</B> key deletes charactersfrom the right of the cursor, or if it works like the<B>Backspace</B> keyand deletes to the left of the cursor.<P><HR><B>NOTE:</B><BR>If you toggle either the<B>Use Emacs key bindings</B>key or the<B>Delete key works like Backspace</B> key, youmust exit and restart<CITE>Ishmail</CITE> for this changeto take effect.<HR></P><P>The following table summarizes the key bindings. The<CITE>Motif</CITE> keyis shown first followed by the<CITE>emacs</CITE> equivalent key. Note thatthe<CODE>Meta</CODE> key is the key with the diamond symbol next to the<B>Alt</B>key on<CITE>Sun</CITE> keyboards. If your keyboard doesn't have a<B>Meta</B> key,the<B>Alt</B> key serves this function.<P><H4>Table: <A NAME="jBLtg-BfiI9X3cS">Key Bindings</H4><IMG SRC="XBFI2.BsKL9X3cS.extobj.2.gif"><H2><A NAME="JQFI2.BsKL9X3cS">Specifying Multiple Addresses</H2><P>When you specify more than one address in the<KBD>To:</KBD>,<KBD>Cc:</KBD>,<KBD>Bcc:</KBD>,or<KBD>Fcc:</KBD> fields you can place each address on a separate line, bypressing the<KBD>Return</KBD> (or<KBD>Enter</KBD>) key after each one.<P>Or, you can type multiple addresses on a single line, providedthat you type a comma between each address.<P>Some mail tools let you specify multiple addresses just by typinga space between each. For compatibility,<CITE>Ishmail</CITE> lets you do thistoo, if you turn<KBD>on</KBD> the<B>Allow spaces to delimit addresses</B> button.<P><HR><B>NOTE:</B><BR>If you allow spaces to delimit addresses youwill not be able to enter addresses containingcomment information, since these will fool thecomma insertion logic into thinking you haveentered more than one address.<HR></P><H2><A NAME="QQFI2.BsKL9X3cS">External Commands - Editor and SpellChecker</H2><P>When you use the<U>E</U><B>ditor ...</B> function in the Composition window<U>M</U><B>essage</B> pull-down menu,<CITE>Ishmail</CITE> starts the alternate editorprogram you have specified as the<B>External editor command</B>.
