27 ;; This implement decoding of RFC2646 formatted text, including the
28 ;; quoted-depth wins rules.
30 ;; Theory of operation: search for lines ending with SPC, save quote
31 ;; length of line, remove SPC and concatenate line with the following
32 ;; line if quote length of following line matches current line.
34 ;; When no further concatenations are possible, we've found a
35 ;; paragraph and we let `fill-region' fill the long line into several
36 ;; lines with the quote prefix as `fill-prefix'.
38 ;; Todo: encoding, implement basic `fill-region' (Emacs and XEmacs
39 ;; implementations differ..)
