Using "viu" to display attached images
Hi, recently I discovered the command line program "viu" (https://github.com/atanunq/viu) which very nicely displays images in terminal windows. I added this line to my .mailcap: image/*; viu -t -n %s ; copiousoutput Now mutt calls viu for all attached images. But only a black rectangle is shown instead of the image. Do you have any idea why this happens? I compared the env variables inside a mutt shell but found no relevant differences. TERM is still set to "xterm". And if I start a subshell from within mutt and then call viu, the image is displayed nicely. I'm a bit clueless... Thanks for any hint, Andy -- If your parents never had children, chances are you won't, either. (Dick Cavett)

I see you've already shifted to just using "bold" etc in your color directives, but also: - run a personal terminfo record without the color capabilities; decompile the provided terminfo with untic, edit to remove the colours (or change the colours to "mono" escape sequences, build new entry with tic, set $TERMINFO to refer to it - run mutt itself from a script or alias which sets $TERM just for mutt i.e. overriding the $TERM provided by screen (which will be describing the terminal capabilities of screen itself) - switch from screen to tmux Cheers, Cameron Simpson
