This is a function of the pager that you use for viewing the
mails under mutt. I have not come across any  console  pager
which does this sort of thing. IIRC, there was a  posting in
freshmeat newsletter a few months  ago on  something  called
"urlrec" which makes a bookmark file of URLs  to  be used on
any browser subsequently. Never used it. May give it a try.

If you have gpm installed, cut section with mouse.Often this
causes problems! I view my mails with elvis (vi clone). This
is capable of  displaying  HTML mails  directly. Secondly it
gives me the option of marking a section, and  saving  to  a
text file for later use. I suppose vim will also do the same
(without HTML viewing capability). Same for nvi.

gpm cut and paste is perhaps the simplest on console. Alter-
nate method is of a vi block save and block read in mailer.

Sub : Re-initialise /etc/inittab                     LOST #043

To re-initialise changes made to /etc/inittab without the need
to reboot, do: '#init q'
Init is the last step of the kernel boot sequence. "q" option
re-examines and re-initialises /etc/inittab.
