mutt newbie : How do I go back to the previous screen

2001-11-09 Thread Shankar K E

Hi,

I installed the patch to mutt which allowed me to browse newsgroups.

The option was mutt -g newsserver which gives me a list of newsgroups once I 
subscribe to a list of newsgroups, and select one of them for viewing, I cant return
back to the list. The only option I have is to quit and reopen mutt but this process
is very slow. 

Anybody has a patch for the same.

Thanks

 Please enlighten me about making mutt mouse-aware, I wasn't aware
 that's possible.  Why would it require eterm, couldn't it be done in
 an xterm like with vim and lynx?

eterm implements some of the xterm mouse stuff (same as rxvt and aterm).

It's possible that konsole (KDE) does also, but they don't bother
documenting what it does (I noticed for instance that konsole recognizes
one of the escape sequences I added for XFree86 xterm).

PGP sign mail without MIME

2001-11-09 Thread Lukas Ruf


Dear all,

in muttrc, I easily can set a sendhook such that every email gets
signed by PGP.  But this always sets the MIME type accordingly.

Is it possible to have a sendhook defintion that allows the 
 PGP sign mail without MIME 
as I can specify it manually with ctrl-P in the send menu?

Thanks for any reply.

Lukas
PS: In the FAQ, I could not find the answer.  Therefore, I am asking
here.

i already set that variable, but it doesn't collapse the threads all
the time i use mutt. 
my mutt starts with all threads opened, i don't want that.
this setting just alows to collapse threads were are messages in it which
are marked with N (i set it to no, standard is yes).

i want a configuration were mutt automatically does a alt+shift+V
at startup, to collapse all threads. a thread should just decollapse
after new mail was read (marked with N, that's why i set
collapse_unread to no).

do i simply overlook something?

terminal damaging

Sometimes I receive letters which contain undisplayable characters which
affect my terminal state. After displaying such a message on the screen
the terminal refuses to delete anything from the screen and this yields
in lots of garbage on the display, because new information which is
being displayed is written on top of the old. I know that Pine is
capable of preventing such a damage by default, it outputs all dangerous
characters as circumflexes (^^). Is it possible to do something like
that with mutt?

P.S. I'm attaching such a message to the letter. Beware. :)

it's probably a case where your given locale doesn't match the terminal
capabilities.  For instance, in the attached message you have a 0x84,
which if sent to xterm would tell it to scroll by one line.

No, it's not that simple. Those characters affect the terminal clear
screen function, I reckon, so C-L does nothing.

xterm implements a vt220, which treats characters in the range 128-159 as
control characters (known as c1 control characters).  linux console used to do
this, but it was dropped when the utf-8 support was added.  You can run xterm

just xterm.
  
   xterm is usually the same as xterm-r6 (no color).
  
   (but xterm-color isn't correct - would be nice if FreeBSD installed the
   correct termcap entries so this wasn't something I had to point out
   periodically).
 
  I don't say it's correct. I _don't_ know the correct value. I've seen
  this suggested on freebsd-questions@, and it works. But if you tell me
  the correct value, I'll be happy to change the setting.
 
 Usually (except of course the suggestions which are secondhand or worse)
 the suggestion is based on the fact that FreeBSD doesn't install a termcap
 entry for anything more appropriate.
 
 There is a termcap file distributed with rxvt and one with XFree86 xterm.
 I'd start with those (preferring rxvt and xterm-xfree86).  FreeBSD
 uses a compiled database for termcap, iirc under /usr/share/misc.  Edit
 (save the original of course) the termcap file, putting the new entries at
 the beginning.  Recompile the termcap database (I don't recall the name of
 the command - something like make_capdb - there is a manpage for it).
 
 There is also a better termcap file here (but doesn't necessarily include
 a few of the specialized console types for FreeBSD):
 
 ftp://invisible-island.net/ncurses/termcap.src.gz
 
Hi Thomas,

thank you for your answer. I don't know if it means anything, but my
termcap already contained a rxvt entry, with a comment that it's taken
from the rxvt-2.6.3 sources, which is what I use. I rebuilt the database
just to be sure, commented out the rxvt.termName line in my .Xdefaults
file, and opened a new terminal window (rxvt):
   
roman@roman ~  grep termName .Xdefaults 
! rxvt.termName: xterm-color
roman@roman ~  echo $TERM
xterm
   
Next, I put the two rxvt entries (rxvt-basic and rxvt) from
termcap.src.gz in my /usr/share/misc/termcap, and got these two
messages upon issuing cap_mkdb:

cap_mkdb: record not tc expanded: rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X
 Window System)
cap_mkdb: record not tc expanded: rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X
 Window System)
  
Whassup?

Besides, termcap.src.gz says 'rxvt is normally configured to look for
xterm or xterm-color as $TERM. Since rxvt is not really compatible
with xterm, it should be configured as rxvt (monochrome) and
rxvt-color'. What does that mean for me? 

Thank you for your patience.

 termcap.src.gz in my /usr/share/misc/termcap, and got these two
 messages upon issuing cap_mkdb:
 
 cap_mkdb: record not tc expanded: rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X
  Window System)
 cap_mkdb: record not tc expanded: rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X
  Window System)
   
 Whassup?

offhand (I'm working on Linux now, will try to remember to test this on
FreeBSD) I think it's complaining that the name cited in the tc=
clause doesn't exist, e.g., ecma+color:

rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System):\
:NC@:\
:me=\E[m\017:tc=rxvt-basic:tc=ecma+color:

Also cap_mkdb may also complain that the termcap doesn't begin with a
2-character identifier.  Canonical termcap entries begin that way; termcaps
generated from infocmp don't do that.  (I have a to-do item to add an infocmp
option for this).
 
 Besides, termcap.src.gz says 'rxvt is normally configured to look for
 xterm or xterm-color as $TERM. Since rxvt is not really compatible
 with xterm, it should be configured as rxvt (monochrome) and
 rxvt-color'. What does that mean for me? 

What I do is edit the header-file in rxvt that's hardcoded to xterm and
change that to rxvt when I compile it.  (I don't recall that being
configurable, and since it's easy to edit I haven't looked to see if there's a
better way).

Likewise, for the various other terminal emulators (I install those all to set
$TERM to be what it should be, e.g., xterm-r5, xterm-r6, xterm-xfree86,
kterm, aterm, Eterm, rxvt, since it's simpler to map those _to_ xterm on the
remote side if needed than determine which flavor it really is.

That reminds me of a bug that I observed in Mandrake 8.1 (you see, FreeBSD
isn't the only one that can't setup terminfo properly):

011017 md81 installs xterm-debian as an alias for 'nxterm' and
'xterm-color', which looks like the 88b-version (so alternate screen
stuff is a bit retarded).  Actually, 'xterm' looks like the newer
version, since it uses 1049.
 
This termcap doesn't use the tc= clause:

HI,
I downloaded some mail from some pop account using kde/kmail.
Then i transferred them to Macintosh ZIP disk using Macintosh
Fetch in automatc/raw format. Now, i transferred back some of these
to RH box and i can not read attached files such as tar.gz attachements,...
Please tell me how I may be able to read these with their attachments using 
mutt. what are my chances?.

conditional macro

2001-11-09 Thread Nicolas Rachinsky

I set the following macro via a folder-hook for my mailinglist
folders:
macro index S tag-pattern~d2w\nuntag-pattern~F\ntag-prefixsave-message\n 
Alte Mails nach _r

It should move old messages to an archive-folder, an apropriate
save-hook is set. It is working fine, if there is at least one message
to move. 

The problem is if there is no message tag, mutt executes
save-message for the currently selected message.

How can I stop the macro, if there is no tagged message?

Thanks
Nicolas

Nope; these folks are just configuring their mice and machines so that
mouse clicks send ascii chars or escape sequences to the terminal, which
will treat them as though they were typed -- ie, keyboard commands.

I'd say you should put them back on the Mac and find a safe way to
transport them that probably doesn't include a disk, since Mac file
formats are different from *NIX and DOS.  At the very best you might
encode the files in a format which both MacOS and Linux understand; is
there a Linux version of UnStuffIt?

I agree it wouldn't be anywhere near as useful as in other programs,

I find typing in a specific number to be cumbersome in a mailbox with

I suppose the drawback would be that the mouse should be disabled in

I'm pretty sure I don't know that many people. You need to implement

I agree about that, if done properly (see below).

 the pager to avoid the need for holding down a shift to get clicks

Yes, but you would need the keyboard to go back to the index or select
another article, and I don't think this is a good thing: when the mouse
is used, it's better to be able to do most operations with it. I think
that only some parts of the terminal should be clickable. Or anything
could be clickable (then the behavior depends on the program), but you
should still be able to mark a selection without the keyboard (when the
mouse button isn't immediately released, it shouldn't be interpreted as
a click).
