Exactly. Currently you're using MSGINF which is BBS-to-editor drop file only. With EDITOR.INF/RESULT.ED, the BBS-to-editor file is EDITOR.INF and RESULT.ED is the editor-to-BBS file.
You could support both in your editor and even auto-detect which the sysop has configured if you're clever. :-)
That's an idea.. I posted a question to you in another message though - I chose MSGINF because it has information about the sub-board (such as the sub-board name), which is displayed in SlyEdit. I was curious if another external editor dropfile option could be created to support MSGINF with the ability to change the subject in the editor - supporting both MSGINF and RESULT.ED, perhaps?
Perhaps. Another possibliity might be to supply the sub-board name in the EDITOR.INF file (rather than or in addition-to the "to" name). I noticed just recently that WWIV puts the sub-board name in the EDITOR.INF on the same line where Synchronet puts to
the "to" name. It seems both could be very useful to an editor. I don't rember if MSGINF includes the "to" name too. I'll have to look into that as well...
