Re: Jumping to the topic message

OK, I've just added a feature, there's a new header for each non-top-level message, called "Topic".It links to the top-level topic in the thread. So if you're deeply nested, you're always one click away from the topmost message.
I added this to my dg this morning, too. I'd like to know how close we came, in implementation. Care to share? :-)
Here's what I added to (my #tools version of) readMessage:
bundle { // topic local ( adrTopic = adrItem ); if ( adrItem^.inResponseTo != 0 ) { // current message is not a top-level topic while ( adrTopic^.inResponseTo != 0 ) { adrTopic = @parentof( adrTopic^ )^.[ string.padWithZeros( adrTopic^.inResponseTo, 7 ) ]}; tr( "Topic: ", "" + adrTopic^.subject + "" )}}
There are responses to this message:
