i postponed a message, then came back to it, finished it, and sent it. the
thread still appears with a "draft" label, which i can''t
remove. there are
currently no draft messages waiting to be finished, but if i hit "R",
i get
this exception:
[Thu Aug 16 21:16:01 -0400 2007] stopped cursing
[Thu Aug 16 21:16:01 -0400 2007] oh crap, an exception
[Thu Aug 16 21:16:01 -0400 2007] unlocking /home/jeff/.sup/lock...
----------------------------------------------------------------
I''m very sorry, but it seems that an error occurred in Sup.
Please accept my sincere apologies. If you don''t mind, please
send the backtrace below and a brief report of the circumstances
to sup-talk at rubyforge dot orgs so that I might address this
problem. Thank you!
Sincerely,
William
----------------------------------------------------------------
The problem was: ''not a draft'' (error type RuntimeError)
A backtrace follows:
./lib/sup/message.rb:156:in `draft_filename'': not a draft
(RuntimeError)
from ./lib/sup/modes/resume-mode.rb:8:in `initialize''
from bin/sup:253:in `new''

I''m having trouble reproducing this. Are you able to reproduce it?there''s definitely something odd going on with drafts. i''m trying to work on another draft message now. i started writing it and postponed it. when i came back to it, added to it, and exited the editor, i hit "P" to postpone it again. the next time i tried to edit it some more, my additions from the second editing session were gone. i added a bit of text again as a trial, and when i exited the editor and postponed, that addition was gone as well. i tried once again, and this time after exiting the editor, i hit "x" to kill the buffer. i was asked "discard draft?", and when i hit "n", i got the exception below. when i restarted sup, i had three draft messages in my inbox, one for each of my attempts (minus the one with the exception), and there are files named "1", "2", and "3" in ~/.sup/drafts, each with a slightly different version of the message.

This all works for me, and has for months.

I''m going to ignore it and pretend it never happened. My guess at this point is that the index and your drafts directory somehow got out of sync. Can you run "sup-sync -va sup://drafts" and see if that clears up the problem? Thanks for the patience, -- William <wmorgan-sup at masanjin.net>
