Hi!
It seems to have. That would be my initiation into PicoSpan.
I finally decided that I should learn this thing. Everyone
thinks I'm crazy for ignoring it so long. ;)

This is true, but I think you will find that you have merely
traded one kind of being crazy for another.

I'll guess that you were testing whether party noises work
in bbs.

Here's a question for you unix types out there...why can't you pipe the
"respond" command at a "respond or pass?" prompt through another program
(say, figlet)

I assume you mean so that you can type in your response in the
ordinary way, but your input would be run through the program
and the output saved in the response.
You probably can't do that because Marcus didn't consider it
would be a common enough thing that people would want to do
to be worth writing the code to do it, and because you can
achieve the same effect in other ways--e.g. by saving the
output in a file, then reading the file into the response.

You can define an editor that does that. But no, there isn't any notion
in PicoSpan of "input filtering" or "temporary editors".

Could you run your editor program piped through figlet to make a temporary
file, and then read the file into your response and delete the file?

However, the "gate" text collector will let you enter some text,
then type (at the beginning of a line)
:|figlet
to run the text you've typed through figlet. (Or replace figlet
by any other filter to use that filter.) That's how I produced
the "Won't work" figlet above.
The vi editor will let you do something similar to this too.

Ah, sneaky. It doesn't update the number of the last response seen, but it
updates the date at which the item was last seen to exactly match the
response entry time stored in the sum file. Clever, clever, clever.
