Re: vim / ispell
According to Will Yardley on Thu, Sep 06, 2001 at 02:09:55AM -0700: | so this is a bit off topic, but does anyone have a simple set of vim | macros to interface with ispell (or an easy way to spellcheck a file | after editing without leaving mutt)? i'm usually a decent speller but | it is annoying not to be able to check a particular word or paragraph. | My way. macro compose return :set ispell=newsbody-ispell\nispellsend-message --- #!/bin/bash ## /usr/home/eric/bin/newsbody-ispell newsbody -k from -k subject -hs -q -n $2 -p ispell -- -x %f -- The above omits headers (except subject - at least I hope it checks spelling on my subjects). So when I wish to send the mail form the compose window without checking spelling, I press the default `y', otherwise I hit enter and usually save embarrassment. Only ugliness is, once you are in spell check you have to kill the mutt process if you wish to abort the sending of the mail. Sometimes in vim you want to do a spell check interactively, I go nmap =s :!ispell -S %cr:e %cr next challenge, is to have the spell check and the auto-sending of mail automatically executed when I quit vim - tricky. Hope this helps -- Eric Smith

Well I would think a command to check for new mail, would be basic. Am I missing something here? For some reason with my configuration, I have to do an operation before mutt tells me there is new mail, it doesn't tell me if I leave it sitting static. So when looking through the pager to see what the key command would be to check for new mail, I see that at it's unmapped - but mentioned specifically. Surely one can map this command from within mutt similar to remapping?
