"Other resources" rc to create topic list with reference to $TIDXFNAME$#$MSGNUM$

[Ngieen Siao-Mak]

I hope someone can help me,

I am trying to create another RC file to define the topics in an archive.

for that the RC will have to ignore all message reply and possible followups.... probably controlled through setting TLEVELS to 0, am i correct?

now, i wish that every topic in this archive to point to the tree location of the main mail archive thread page...something like this:

[<a href="$TIDXFNAME$#$MSGNUM$">Topic 1</a>]
[<a href="$TIDXFNAME$#$MSGNUM$">Topic 2</a>]
[<a href="$TIDXFNAME$#$MSGNUM$">Topic 3</a>]
[<a href="$TIDXFNAME$#$MSGNUM$">Topic 4</a>]
[<a href="$TIDXFNAME$#$MSGNUM$">Topic 5</a>]
[<a href="$TIDXFNAME$#$MSGNUM$">Topic 6</a>]

any help on achieving the goal would be appreciated

thanks!

Yes.  Basically, "blank-out" all the other thread page resources related
to rendering the actual thread list/links except TTOPBEGIN and TSINGLETXT.
See <http://www.mhonarc.org/MHonArc/doc/faq/usage.html#nilresource>
about clearing a page-layout-related resource.

If this index is an additional from the default thread index that
is created, use OTHERINDEXES to define your topic index.

Hope this helps,
