Slrn-like colors
There is more work to be done but I have mutt looking pretty similar to the default slrn colors now after help from various people (thank you) and some experimenting. What I haven't been able to accomplish is to color various parts of headers (within the header itself, not between one header and another) like slrn does and this may not be possible. In case anyone can use it, here it is # Colorize as much as possible like slrn defaults color hdrdefault brightcyan black color quoted red black color signature red black color attachment red black color message brightred black color error brightred black color indicator brightyellow blue color status brightyellow blue color tree white black color normal white black color markers red black color search white black color tilde brightmagenta black color index blue black ~F color index brightwhite black ~N|~O -- ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) Powered by Lemote Fuloong against HTML e-mail X Loongson MIPS and OpenBSD and proprietary/ \http://www.mutt.org attachmentsCode Blue or Go Home!
Re: colors like slrn? [screwup here]
You can always fish it up from the archives. Possibly you're using a white background, I have no idea what slrn would do under those conditions. Oh I kept the contents of the mail, just not in Mutt! I tried it again with a reverse video xterm and it works a lot better. You got the yellow slrn uses. It's just yellow but for some reason I didn't get it before. I'll figure the rest of it out from here. Thanks alot.
colors like slrn?
Hello Mutters! Does anybody have a .muttrc to set up the same colors (as much as possible) as the slrn newsreader does. The contrib/colors.linux actually comes pretty close but I can't figure out what some of the slrn yellowish names should be. In case anybody has one they would share... The mutt mailing lists page is hilarious btw. The assumption seems to be people are not using mutt! Perish the thought!

Yea this list is kind of slow. :) I didn't mean slow, I meant it was kind of humorous seeing the Mutt.org mailing list page has links to click on that are for webmail clients! Mutt is so NOT about that!

At one time (a very long time ago) I had the configurations set up so that vim, mutt and slrn all had basically the same colour scheme. I have no idea if slrn still has the same colour scheme or even if I tweaked it at the time, since I haven't used it in so long, but here are my colour settings from .muttrc: color attachment yellow default color body brightred default [\-\.+_a-zA-Z0-9]+@[\-\.a-zA-Z0-9]+ color body brightblue default (http|ftp)://[\-\.\,/%~_:?\#a-zA-Z0-9]+ color bold brightwhite default color error red default color header yellow default ^Subject: color header yellow default ^From: color header yellow default ^Date: color header yellow default ^To: color header yellow default ^Cc: color header yellow default ^Reply-To: color hdrdefault cyan default color index white default \.* color indicator brightyellow red color markers magenta default color message white default color normal white default color quoted green default color search red yellow color signature blue default color status brightyellow blue color tilde magenta default color tree red default color underline magenta default

Re: mutt+slrn key bindings
* Jos Romildo Malaquias [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2002-10-04 09:47]: Is there a set of key bindings to slrn similar to the default one found in mutt? Where can it be found? both mutt and slrn allow free key binding. so i suggest to adjust them like *you* like - and not accoriding to anyone's defaults. besides, even when you use the same keys, you cannot expect the programs to do the same. in the end you will have to learn what the commands can do, anyway.

slrn error
I'm trying to get slrn working on my Redhat 6.2 system and I receive the following error when I execute the program: Reading startup file /usr/lib/slrn/slrn.rc. Unable to open score file /home/dlm/News/Score slrn fatal error: Error processing score file /home/dlm/News/Score. I'm using a cable connection and have NNTP variable set like this: export NNTPSERVER=news.lvcablemodem.com in my .bash_profile file. Currently I'm using emacs to read news with. I tried the .slrnrc file that was listed on a 'hack'website I saw on a post in this ng, but still had the same problem. Thanks -- dale

mutt and slrn
Hi is here a way how to set mutt as mailer in slrn. I tryed Svens solution: set mail_editor_command "mutt -H '%s' ; exit 1" but this does not work perfect. -- The messenger is not important!

I'm using the attached slrn macro file, plus the attached shell

Note that this solution requires formail (1) from the procmail
package. Improvements are welcome.

slrn-style header-coloration still not in mutt
Every so often on mutt-users, someone asks for slrn-style header-coloration (where the name of the header -- everything to the left of the colon -- can be defined as one color, and the value of the header -- to the right of the colon -- as another color). But this still has not been made possible in mutt. Forgive me if something more complicated is involved (I don't know much about C-language coding, though clearly it's time to learn), but this would seem to be another no-brainer -- a question of looking at how it's done in slrn and copying that code, perhaps with some minor modifications, into mutt. Can't this be put on the agenda for one of the next versions of mutt? -- // [EMAIL PROTECTED] //

After thinking about it a bit, I'm not so sure this is the best idea after all for the pager-headers, since it would make it hard to have (as is currently the case) an entire header line appear in one color to distinguish it from the others (for example to have the "Subject:" line stand out in its own color from the rest of the headers. You can pattern-match on an "X-" header, for example, or on "From:", "Subject:" etc, but I don't know how you'd be able to match on or define a color for the *value* of a header (the text to the right of the colon), since you don't know what it's going to be. What about matching the colon and tell it to apply some color till the end of the line?

While I don't know slrn's code for this, a proper approach to add something along these lines to mutt would require some new control sequences to be added to some format strings - remember, with mutt, the index display is freely configurable. Additionally, this may mix very badly with the pattern-dependent index coloring. However, please note that you are welcome to figure out a clean approach and submit a patch.
