I have two nits: both cases where the ChangeLog allowed me to figure out
why something had changed, but the man pages have not been updated.
1. The default Msg-Protect umask has changed from 644 to 600. I suppose
this is reasonable, and it's certainly mentioned in the ChangeLog, but
the the rcvstore(1) man page, in the 6th paragraph of the DESCRIPTION
section, still says:
otherwise the nmh default of 0644 will be used.
There may be other places where the documentation needs to be changed.
2. The refile(1) man page says:
The option `-link' preserves the source folder copy of the
message (i.e., it does a ln(1) rather than a mv(1)),
whereas, `-nolink' (the default) deletes the filed messages
from the source folder.
I think this is misleading. It seems that a link is done regardless,
then if (and only if) -unlink is specified, the original is removed.
A little later in the man page this is clarified somewhat, but it took
me a while to figure out that starting with 1.0, I had to add -unlink
to the refile: entry in my ~/.mh_profile, whereas prior to 1.0 this
was not needed.
Otherwise, as always, I greatly appreciate the work you've put into this.
Any thoughts on when you might incorporate my regex patch for slocal?
