[Nmh-workers] More than one parameters in .mh_profile

2012-05-28 Thread Aleksander Matuszak
In the .mh_profile some entries specifies programs like: Editor: vim-mail moreproc: less postproc: /usr/lib/mh/post Some of those programs require options or parameters but apparently this is not accepted. I need moreproc to be less -force but show (nmh-1.3) refuses this. Workaround is to

[Nmh-workers] UTF-8 message bodies

2012-05-28 Thread Joel Uckelman
My wife pointed out to me today that for the past seven years (!) since the Linux distribution we use switched to UTF-8, when she sends messages containing non-ASCII characters they show up as gibberish for many of the recipients---but not for me. I'm also using a UTF-8 locale, which explains why

Hi Joel, Is there a solution to this with nmh 1.4 or 1.5? I've changed my mail/components, etc., to have these three MIME headers in and then I create a UTF-8 file in vim. I need to delete them if I'm going to `mime' at the whatnow(1) prompt, e.g. for attaching a file, because it quite rightly

Hi max, Why not set in .mh_profile automimeproc: 1 I like to look over the mime'd draft before sending to check I got the directives right. Cheers, Ralph. ___ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org

I need moreproc to be less -force but show (nmh-1.3) refuses this. Yeah, I guess what happens there is mhl (or whatever) is trying to exec(less -force). Which as you've noted doesn't work. Other people have complained about this as well. But in this case you could just set the environment

Sure, it COULD do that. Sounds like you're volunteering to write the code; great! :-) I hack perl, not C. I did quickly grep the perl code base for it though, but being on a tablet at the moment could not dive too deeply. nmh is non-GNU, but perl is dual-licensed under the Artistic License. I

Could nmh not do with such parameters what perl does for system()/exec(), auto-splitting the string? In the off chance that someone's installed binaries in a path with a space they can escape the space, same as they would in a shell... ___ Nmh-workers
