I don't usually use flist. As I updated the online MH book for nmh-1.0,
though, I think I've found an ugly bug. Here's the way I've documented
it in the book:
CAUTION:
flist (with nmh-1.0, at least) doesn't understand
relative folder names like "@subfolder" or "@..".
For instance, "flist @january" won't change to the subfolder
named "january"; it will set the current folder name to
(literally) "@january". Then, if you try to use any other
nmh commands, they'll ask "Create folder @january?".
The workaround is to first change the current folder (for
instance, with "folder @january"), then run flist.
If this can't be fixed, could it at least be added to the manpage BUGS?
As usual, I apologize for not having the time to dig in and try to fix
this. (I barely have time to update the book.) If I'm wrong about this
bug, please let me know!! Otherwise, if you agree with this, maybe you
can suggest a fix? Thanks.
