    Maybe the most recent pre-alpha for the RPi might help. It looks like
    it's dated 23 November.

    Actually another prealpha was released for Linux, Windows and a new RPi compile.

    This is an example of the weird blank space in messages I'm seeing:

    Hey Charles,

    I did have that happen a fair amount with older versions of Mystic. I'm tryingto think if it was A45 or A46... There was some issue with the
    word wrappingand having the 132x37 screen size.

    I think it's been taken care of in newer pre-alphas, as I haven't seen
    it hererecently.

    And I think theres a new version as of today, 1/4/21, too.

    Thanks, I'll have to try that.
    To move to the pre-alpha, do I just download and Install over my current version?

    Another thing; I do wish I'd of NOT upgraded to the pre-alpha.... I understand, if your experiencing issues... but if yer not on A46, maybe thats a good one to LAND on. :P

    I just hate upgrading to new builds all the time being on pre-alpha... so... just saying, if yer NOT on a46... I might try a46 first as opposed to jumping into a pre-alpha that you'll have to keep rebuilding every few weeks.

    I am on A46. I git a 404 error trying the pre alpha link earlier.


    On a better note, I think I got my SSH working. At least cryptlib is
    installed and Mystic Sees it.

    Great; I just not upgraded to the newest a47 and can confirm that its a build from 01/05/2021 10:XXam, if you do decide to get on the pre-alpha bus.

    Glad you got cryptlib all installed correctly; it was easy enough so long as you follow the wiki to the tee. CHEERS!

    This is an example of the weird blank space in messages I'm seeing:

    That's odd, that message doesn't have any of those blank lines in the copy I received here.

    I'm not sure why that would happen.

    That's what I'd like to figure out. It's a minor thing really, except it
    that it does cause me a headache.

    I've seen this happen to my messages on occasion. It sometimes happens when I post online messages & other times offline as well though MultiMail.

    I've never really looked into it as it doesn't happen that often, but I'm wondering if it has something to do when I past links or other text into a message. I may be way off there though.

    Yup. Download and extract to a temp directory, then ./install replace /mystic will upgrade the binaries.

    There are some other steps that will need to be done, and they are listed in the upgrade.txt file.
