I /am/ willing to mark them as "prefer inline display" or whatever it's called, which my mailer lets me do, but personally, I prefer not even to do this unless they're very, very small (one hunk). Since I've been doing lots of bullet-lists lately, here's a couple more: In support of attached patches: o Easier to separate out and organize in a filesystem o Less likely to munge international characters o No possibility to confuse carriage-returns from the e-mail with carriage-returns from the patch o Easier to view with syntax highlighting o Usually not automatically included in replies o Specifies a file-name for the patch o Doesn't /ever/ line-wrap (!) o No cut-and-paste to apply the patch o Allows us to turn on auto-line wrapping in our e-mail clients, which, in turn, makes wine-devel more readable (sometimes). o pretty icons in some clients ;) In support of inline patches o easier to read for some people I say, tough cookies.
