'discuss' wouldn't allow me to enter a transaction with a title
but no contents:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
discuss:  g cprivate
Consulting_Private meeting:  0 new, 1417 last. (You are a chairman.)
discuss:  t
Subject: anyone know how Dave Morrison is?
Enter transaction; end with ^D or '.' on a line by itself.
discuss (talk): No such file or directory Can't read transaction
discuss:  t
Subject: anyone know how Dave Morrison is?
Enter transaction; end with ^D or '.' on a line by itself.
anyone know how Dave Morrison is?
Transaction [1418] entered in the Consulting_Private meeting.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(The reason I wanted to do this was that the title *was* all I wanted
to say.)
