For that particular case, you can save to the previously-saved-to folder

:repeat command

2001-09-19 Thread Miguel Farah F.

In my last few days' investigation  configuration of mutt's
capabilities, I've found myself issuing commands thru the internal
command line... and many times having to repeat a complex command
(meaning I have to retype it). It'd be nice if there was a :repeat
command that... well... repeats the last command as if it had been
just retyped.

Usually you can press the up arrow to scroll back through the
previous commands?

The up and down arrows are binded to the  previous-undeleted and
next-undeleted commands...

 The up and down arrows are binded to the  previous-undeleted and
 next-undeleted commands...

Not while in the command-line editor (after pressing `:'), they're not.

Unless you mean you've explicitly re-bound them as:

bind editor upprevious-undeleted
bind editor down  next-undeleted

in which case you're probably much better off reverting to the default
bindings.  (I can't for the life of me figure out the usefulness of
previous- and next-undeleted while in the line editor...)

You could make a macro that does:

'enter-commandhistory-up\r'  

Now, that would only affect commands that you have entered on the
command line, which is not exaclty what _I_ want to have (I can't see a
lot of use for repeating commands that way).  But if that is what you
are wanting to repeat, then that should do it.

I would like a command that could repeat the last command...  So If I
had just hit 's' to save a message to another mailbox, I could hit '.',
and save another message to that same mailbox. (think vi)
