As a matter of fact, the original purpose of all this nagging here and on the w3m list was to put together a series of scripts and rc files for the email subsystem of the RULE project (www.rule-project.org). After I got started, I also ended up writing an article on the side, but the final scripts/rc files, with explanations (and, of course, credits!) will be all put online on that site sometime next week.

No. _GNU_ sed has that option. I use more varied systems than GNU based UNIX
variants and write portable sed scripts, not GNU specific dialects.

Hmm. It would be nice if w3m would recite URLs inline as an option, but it
doesn't. How about this script:
detab ${1+$@} \
| sed 's|\([Aa] [^]*[Hh][Rr][Ee][Ff]=\([^
]*\)[^]*\)\(.*\)\(/[Aa]\)|\1\3 [ \2 ]\4|g' \
| w3m -dump -T text/html
I'm about to start using it for HTML filtering in place of plain w3m.
It hacks the HTML to turn:
A HREF=urlfoo/A
into:
A HREF=urlfoo [ url ]/A
which shows up nicely. It doesn't resolve relative URLs, but HTML email shoudn't
have any, not having a useful baseurl. This script is available here:
http://www.zip.com.au/~cs/scripts/unhtml
for use in your mailcap like so:
text/html; unhtml %s; copiousoutput
It seems to work fairly well here.
What say you?

Still fighting to get clickable URLs via w3m
Hello, I haven't been able yet to use w3m (or any other text browser for that matter) work cleanly as a Mutt pager. I want to read HTML email as text, but with text corresponding to hyperlinks active so that clicking it, or with some keystroke, I can open an external browser directly on the underlying URL, like this: HTML body source: .A HREF=http://www.google.com;GOOGLE!/A. View in mutt pager: .GOOGLE!. and selecting/clicking/highligthing/whatever the GOOGLE! string starts an external browser on www.google.com As already pointed out here, the remaining problem is that w3m is started on the whole message, headers and all, so even if URLs are recognized when pressing : the whole thing is quite a mess to read. Any suggestion? I have just discovered the set_pipe_decode options, but am not sure they have anything to do with my problem TIA, Marco Fioretti

There's never been a demand for that feature by mutt users, so no one that I know of has ever addressed it. I receive very little e-mail that is both formatted as HTML and contains links that I have any interest in following. When I do receive such e-mail and want to see it as HTML, I use the attachment menu. I played around with this a little and came up with the following solution. It may have some bugs, but it's at least a starting point. First of all, you want to have mutt send HTML messages as raw HTML to your pager. The way I did this was to put this in my muttrc: auto_view text/html and this in my mailcap: text/html; w3m %s; nametemplate=%s.html text/html; cat; copiousoutput Next, you want to specify a pager that understands that the header is plain text but the body is HTML. I wrote a shell script and called it 'htmlviewer': #!/bin/sh sed '1i\ html\ head\ title/title\ /head\ body\ pre s|^\[-- Autoview using .*|/pre\ /body\ /html| ' $* | w3m -T text/html It wraps the header in an HTML block and deletes the [-- Autoview line before sending the message to w3m. Then I just set pager=htmlviewer in my muttrc. You will probably want to use a display-hook (or message-hook) for this. That was kind of terse--I hope it was clear. Is that closer to what you want?
