Yeah...I'd thought of that, but the arg list parsing problem (that you mentioned) is what made me want to check to see if anyone had done a more general solution. Also, I kinda vaguely remembered that exmh had something like this (folder-specific settings) and thought that it could have enough general appeal to be a reasonable addition to nmh. > ... > To be more robust, the scripts could loop the argument list before > hand to see if a '+folder' argument is specified and to use it > when checking for folder specific format files.
