Somehow, a certain thread got marked as "memorized", so that whenever I join that particular group, it gets "selected". I, of course, want to undo this operation. tl;dr: I eventually figured out that hitting T then c on that thread would "de-memorize" it, so problem is solved. However, ... I would like to know how/where this command gets stored - so that I could just edit it out of that file. I know about killfiles and where they are stored and frequently end up editing them by hand, so no problem doing that if needed. But, here's the thing: 1) Everything in the man page ("man trn"), says that "memorized" commands are stored in the killfile (either the so-called "global" killfile or the group-specific killfile). But this doesn't seem to be the case, because... 2) There was nothing in either killfile that had to do with the memorization of this thread. I can tell this by the access date/time on the killfile file and/or by comparing the file (via the "diff" utility) to a previous version of it. I can state with pretty close to total certainty, that there's nothing in either file having to do with this memorization stuff. So, it must be stored somewhere else. Where? P.S. I suspect that something got changed in the software and the docs (the man page) was not updated. So, they are out of sync. -- The only thing Trump's made great again is Saturday Night Live.
