Hi,
1. I try to write a macro allowing to open an attachment with another
than the default program. Is there a way to refer to the filename
of the attachment in the macro definition (like the %s in
mailcap)?
No. You might play around with the `test=` field in the
mailcap and see if you can use that somehow. For example, one idea
(untested) would be using setenv in the macro around the attachment
opening:
macro ,a 'setenv ATTPROGRAM
foounsetenv ATTPROGRAM'
macro ,b 'setenv ATTPROGRAM
barunsetenv ATTPROGRAM'
And in your .mailcap
application/baz; fooprogram %s; test=test x$ATTPROGRAM = xfoo
application/baz; barprogram %s; test=test x$ATTPROGRAM = xbar
...
application/baz; defaultprogram %s
2. When piping an attachment to an external program, filenames with
spaces don't work. is there a way to enclose the filename with
quotes before submitting it to the pipe?
You'll have to be more specific about what you are doing and how it's
failing.
