And if you do want to actually print it, doing that from inside
chromium is probably the best option anyway...

Re: Detect when inside a split?

[David Woodfall]

On Friday 13 April 2018 17:27,
Dave Woodfall  put forth the proposition:

Is it possible to detect when inside a split so I can use a switch in
my caption string?

I'm using %F to detect if the region has focus and dim the other
window names. This is OK in a split because it hides the other window
names, but when in a single screen with no splits I'd like to see a
full visible list.

TIA


Guess who posted to the wrong list.

Many thanks for pointing me to the `print=` configuration option in mailcap!

I used to save the HTML message part manually and then open it in the browser 
for when the w3m rendering was not good enough, and was looking for a 
workaround to rebind the open action from the message part browser to call a 
GUI browser. Repurposing the print functionality is a neat trick.
