That was never ment to work. But I found some time to implement it. If you

I implemented it as 'hidden attributes = <list>' and 'sort attributes'. |

Attributes are shown in the order you specify them in the config file, so what about
Attributes = Entry type, Author, Journal, Title, Year ??? |

Ok, I put that on my wish list. So once the second or third person asks for it, I will
implement it (;-) |

The XML export contains both the Entry Date and Text fields. In CSV format,
it's hard to export the Text field since it can span several lines, which would
break the CSV format (one line per entry). Or do you know how multi-line
entries can be encoded in CSV? |

I added at least the date and message ID to the CSV export. New version under CVS. |

"Find menu commands" apply to the LIST of entries, while "Menu commands" apply
to the page where a SINGLE entry is shown. I know that "Find menu commands" is
a misleading name, but it's historical, I should change it to "Menu commands"
and change the other to "Entry menu commands", does that make more sense? |

I fixed that bug just now, thanks for reporting it. It's available in revision
1.535 under CVS. |
