Locking in nmh is a bit of a mess; there's conflation between "locking the mail spool" (which a script shouldn't care about) and "locking various nmh things" (which scripts could conceivably care about). There's not a way to do what you want right now. But I'm trying to understand ... what would you do from a script that would require locking? Obviously if you're using nmh programs they would do the locking for you. Do you want to do things like manipulate sequence or context files yourself? --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
