Hello list, hereby i announce S-nail v14.9.9, the "Marsh tit savours first spring sun, II". It replaces v14.9.8 from yesterday, which was broken on big endian machines and could produce test errors dependent on the used iconv library -- a special thanks to Gaetan Bisson for reporting this issue!
This is a (double) bugfix release.
I hope with this the fallout of the Christmas 2016 "address the
Dr. Problem workshop" has been fully resolved and thus MIME for
header address fields, even if iconv(3) is involved, been fully
restored! We have even more tests for this now.
I will remove the v14.9.8 balls from the server by the weekend.
I hope this is it now for quite some time, for you and me.
You are fantastic maintainers, thank you!!
Sorry for the inconvenience!

We welcome Slavko, Matej Mužila, Rich Felker and Simon McVittie in

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- The v14.9.* series called *pipe-TYPE/SUBTYPE*#461 handlers in
display or quote mode with CR (carriage-return) bytes stripped
because of a missing output file comparison check, which broke
binary formats etc. (Slavko)
- We now have native support for Libidn2. (Matej Mužila)
- uname(1) is now hookable by setting the shell variable uname
when calling make ("uname=MY-UNAME make config" etc.).
(Simon McVittie)
We no longer bake the kernel version into the binary, and
`version'#287 includes uname(2) output.
(Simon McVittie, Paride Legovini)
- We now support a fallback P(seudo)R(andomNumber)G(enerator)
initialization even if getrandom(2)/getrandom(3) has been found
by the configuration, just like we do for "/dev/urandom" usage.
This does not affect systems with arc4random(3) or OpenSSL
random usage. (David Čepelík, Simon McVittie)
A new OPT_SSL_RANDOM make.rc variable, by default initialized to
the value of OPT_SSL.
ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^
- `~@'#303 list-edit behaviour in -##84 batch mode was broken.
- Character set names will now undergo generic normalization,
including stripping of iconv(3) //SUFFIXes.

v14.9.7 ("Marsh tit patiently scraping bark") 2018-02-16
--------------------------------------------------------
A maintenance release which fixes bugs and brings in features.
Credits, in order of commit appearance: Alexander Harm,
Viktor SZÉPE, Paul Eggert, Joseph Bisch, Paride Legovini,
and Peter J. Holzer.
A special credit to the disappearing mutt(1) bug tracker.
And to Gmane.org for creating gmane.mail.s-mailx.general!
Thanks Paride Legovini for becoming maintainer of the Debian port.
We welcome Joseph Bisch, Paride Legovini, and Peter J. Holzer in
THANKS.
NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- The USB stick loss reported for v14.9.6 was fake news, so to
say, the stick exists and therefore the old key is not
compromised.
- We are back at Gmane.org!
news.gmane.org/gmane.mail.s-mailx.general
- `history'#198 has learned to be context-sensitive a bit, and
has two new subcommands, `load' and `save'.
This is in parts backward incompatible because it needs a new
*history-file*#406 format; however, the old format can be loaded
yet compose-mode commands will not appear in compose mode no
more. Iirc you can start with an old format then `save' to
the new, then replace the "d" in the first column with "c" for
compose-mode commands which should appear correctly.
- Obsoletion warnings for variables now happen at `set'#254
time instead of when used. Running once via -v#81 may
be beneficial.
- The saturation modifier of `vexpr'#288 is henceforth a prefix,
the suffix version is obsolete (but still supported for a while).
- A network address that contains no domain-, but only a valid local
user <name> in angle brackets will be automatically expanded to
a valid address when *hostname*#411 is set to a non-empty value;
setting it to the empty value instructs us that the used *mta*#440
(including builtin SMTP) will perform the necessary expansion.
(Viktor SZÉPE)
Note that *hostname*#411 as well as *smtp-hostname*#521
will now undergo IDNA expansion if IDNA is supported.
And *from*#400 and *sender*#498 are now verified at `set'#254
time, not when used. (Viktor SZÉPE)
- The commit message in [d503bd82] is wrong, apologies to
Paride Legovini. The test(1) operator "-n" appeared in Seventh
Edition UNIX, not V8 as falsely claimed.
ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^
- Our `addrcodec'#130 parser chokes on lesser constructs.
- Presence of command-line MTA arguments without *expandargv*#390
are now a hard error. It was my fault that this was not the
default from the very start. (Viktor SZÉPE)
- Seen on the mutt bug tracker, we also still have had problems
with time settings that cross 32-bit boundaries. As that is
in parts induced by the C standard, now implement those parts on
our own, and be super careful in general. (Joseph Bisch)
- The `~@'#303 command escape did not shell-unquote the user input
again and was thus a bit broken; message attachments also work
again.
- Support custom headers from the command line via -C#58.
And *customhdr*#377 is verified upon `set'#254 time.
- The simple builtin HTML viewer now supports <blockquote>
elements, which many web mailers, most notably gmail, use for
citation. (Peter J. Holzer)

v14.9.6 ("Marsh tit abiding a snow storm"), 2017-12-05
------------------------------------------------------
A bugfix release which fixes four serious and three other bugs.
A few new features came in, too.
Many thanks go to Ralph Corderoy who reported an issue that was
caused by a terrible, terrible word reversal that i managed to
produce in December 2016, and which caused the v14.9.x series to
not MIME encode (non-address) content of address header fields!

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- After USB stick loss the authors OpenPGP key has been switched to
pub 4096R/1883A0DD 2017-11-30 [expires: 2027-11-28]
Key fingerprint =
EE19 E1C1 F2F7 054F 8D39 54D8 3089 64B5 1883 A0DD
uid Steffen Nurpmeso <stef...@sdaoden.eu>
- $TMPDIR#593 no longer honoured for root runs. (Solar Designer)
- *mime-encoding*#438 defaults to quoted-printable again. (Cág)
- We _can_ MIME encode even header fields which contain addresses.
Thanks to Ralph Corderoy we now also _do_ so again!
ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^
- ***#336 now uses *ifs*#413 when splitting.
- Freezing *ttycharset*#559 via -S#76 also survives using or
setting any of $LC_ALL#575, $LC_CTYPE#576 and $LANG#577 during
program startup.
- New `local'#114 command modifier to localize changes.
Yet supported only for `set'#254, i.e., we have gained
macro-local variables.
- `vexpr'#288 now supports a BASE#number notation for integers,
like 16#AFFE as an alternative to 0xAFFE.
Hint: variable settings can most often use several bases, too,
e.g., i have "set mime-counter-evidence=0b1111".
- Very simple form of *quote-chars*#481 to adjust our knowledge of
what actually is to be treated as a quote character.
- *mime-counter-evidence*#437 deep inspection (bit four) has
been improved for the sole cases of quoting or displaying
a message. So messages with less than 25% of control characters
and such will now be displayed (made printable). This is yet
not configurable nor do we have a way to easily access a message
with more than that. (Doug McIlroy)

v14.9.5 ("Marsh tit engaged with a peanut"), 2017-10-21
-------------------------------------------------------
A bugfix release which fixes two bugs which were cast in stone.
A few compatibility improvements (AlpineLinux, Solaris).
And minor features.
Apologies to Jörg Schilling, a git bug i think it was who caused
joining of changesets, loosing a credit, and it had been pushed to
[master] before the problem was realized.

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- New OPT_USE_PKGSYS option can be disabled to not automatically
pick known package system paths (pkg(7), OpenCSW, schily).
(Jörg Schilling)
ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^
- The software indeed _never_ dealt with iconv(3) output character
set errors (as opposed to invalid input character set byte
sequences etc.) for the main message body!
And I have missed that when i tweaked our iconv layer a bit!
- Fixed a race condition with sigsuspend(2) that i could only see
on OpenBSD. config.h offers n_SIGSUSPEND_NOT_WAITPID, by the
way, which saves some systemcalls and did not run races, but
noone adjusts this file.
- Message list specifications gained two new colon modifiers, one
can now "search :Ll" to find "Mailing lists"#10.
The *headline*#403 format %T now also uses L and l rather than
S and L accordingly.
New `addrcodec'#130 subcommand `skinlist' acts like `skin'
but stores in *!*#332 *^ERR*#334-EXIST if the address is
one of the known "Mailing lists"#10.
- `echo'#167 family now supports `vput'#117 and *!*#332 error
storage, offering some kind of printf(1) experience, almost.

This is an update feature release but which also ships a furious
number of bug fixes, about six of which were pretty serious. It
also applies overall trimming, and improves configuration time
compatibility on macOS.
Thanks to Alexander Harm there is now a macOS Homebrew package.

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Out-of-tree builds have become possible via the new
make-emerge.sh script:
$ cd /tmp && mkdir build && cd build &&
~/src/nail.git/make-emerge.sh &&
make tangerine DESTDIR=.ddir
We now have a `citron' make target which is like `tangerine' but
does not run the tests.
- Configuration with OPT_AUTOCC honours $CC=cc. (Norman Ramsey)
- SSL/TLS configuration has been revamped (again) in order to
support new possibilities of OpenSSL (and LibreSSL) without
ending up and introducing more and more variables.
Instead we now have *ssl-config-pairs*#542, a comma-separated
list of all options. With e.g. OpenSSL 1.1.xx this will be
directly passed through to SSL_CONF_cmd(), so there _anything_
can be passed, otherwise we use a builtin parser to map.
The new *ssl-features*#546 states what is supported. E.g.:
if [ "$ssl-features" =% +ctx-set-maxmin-proto ]
wysh set ssl-config-pairs='\
CipherList=TLSv1.2:!aNULL:!eNULL:@STRENGTH,\
Curves=P-521:P-384:P-256,\
MinProtocol=TLSv1.1'
else
wysh set ssl-config-pairs='\
CipherList=TLSv1.2:!aNULL:!eNULL:@STRENGTH,\
Curves=P-521:P-384:P-256,\
Protocol=-ALL\,+TLSv1.1 \, +TLSv1.2'
endif
OpenSSL v1.1.xx also introduces an interesting and neat idea to
centralize SSL/TLS configuration of (all) programs in a single
file. This can be driven via *ssl-config-file*#540 and the new
*ssl-config-module*#541 variables, several entries per program
are allowed, see *ssl-config-module*#541 for an example.
New manual section "Encrypted network communication"#13.
- Variables set or unset via -S#76 are now frozen until program
startup is complete.
ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^
- Historical behaviour of *askcc*#348 / *askbcc*#349 has been
reintroduced. (Norman Ramsey)
A new *asksend*#350 variable will show a final header summary
and allows reentering compose mode. Set by default.
POSIX mirrors *ask* onto *asksub*#352, so dropped" the former.
- `~^'#305 no longer normalizes header names to titlecase.
- We no longer generate charset=binary MIME parameters.
This was introduced on 2013-01-02 and was i think owed to
file(1)s -i output as i failed to find any other reference.
(Normal Ramsey)
- *mime-alternative-favour-rich*#436 now also works for handlers
installed via *pipe-TYPE/SUBTYPE*#461. (Viktor Szépe)
- v14.9.* series did not generate In-Reply-To: headers!
- `alias'#131 now supports high-bit bytes and semicolon.
Expect that at some later time the input must be valid according
to the locale, though. (Norman Ramsey)
- Combinations of *record*#485 could crash because of an
unterminated variable function argument list. (Norman Ramsey)
- New command `readall'#234 loads an entire file into a variable.
*signature*#505 has been obsoleted.
- `vexpr'#288 now supports negative arguments for the substring
subcommand and adds trim, trim-front and trim-end subcommands.
- `!'#121 can be used in send mode.
- `~A'#306, `~a'#307, `~I'#316 and `~i'#317 will henceforth expand
\t and \n only if *posix*#474 is set.
Please use `set'#254 instead (with `wysh'#118, until v15).
- New "The mime.types files"#35 type marker: @q ("quiet").

v14.9.3 ("Crested tit nibbling sunflower seeds"), 2017-08-03
------------------------------------------------------------
This is a bugfix release but which ships some improvements, too.
It silently replaces both of v14.9.1 v14.9.2 from earlier this
week, which were broken or not entirely fixed.

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- fakeroot support was blindly taken from Debian and broken.
(Gavin Troy, Gaetan Bisson)
- Base64 output was broken for cases which involved iconv(3).
The data is not lost, you can read it with S-nail v14.9.0 and
above, and save it somewhere. I know of no other base64 decoder
which reads those things correctly, though. We now have tests.
Along this i fixed an iconv(3) error which likely caused
stateful decoding (like, e.g., for ISO-2022-JP) to fail because
of an unnecessary reset of the iconv(3) state machine.
Thanks to Gaetan Bisson for mentioning this issue!
ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^
- In compose mode the MLE allows empty lines again.
- We no longer require a writable $HOME#574. Due to false code
flow (but but but: with correct comment) a non-writable $HOME
entry in /etc/password (i.e., from getpwuid(3)) would lead to
a crash. (Felix Fontain; Ralph Corderoy)
- Two faulty string operations slipped into the IMAP code,
resulting in a crash and a "is-same-host" test that would fail
for IMAPS connections like `save'#251 or `copy'#153 because of an
implicit IMAP protocol for the target of those operations (thus
IMAP != IMAPS). (Paul Vojta)
- The MLE tab-expansion will now automatically append a "/" if
there is only one possible expansion and that is a directory,
saving the user one <TAB>. (Christos Zoulas)
The shell expression parser had a bug regarding understood
metacharacters (;|&), which in turn could cause an infinite loop
in the MLE tab-expansion for, e.g., "move &9 +<TAB>", because
the "&" would never have been stepped over.
- New `~I'#316 command escape is like `~i'#317 but does not append
a newline.
- `localopts'#203 gained an optional second argument.
It is now possible to specify that any macro `call'#139ed
will have localopts enabled, and it is possible to fixate the
setting so that it cannot be reverted.
- *@*#338 should now act completely compatible to the sh(1)ell,
thus obsoleting my hysteric warnings in the v14.9.0 announcement.
- The `Lreply'#204, `reply'#239, `Reply'#238 series as well as
`mail'#206 now manage the error status *!*#332.
I.e., there are now errors like *^ERR*#334-DESTADDRREQ,
^ERR-NODATA, ^ERR-PERM and similar. It is not perfect yet,
because $DEAD#572 may have been written (with *save*#493) or not,
for example.
`Lreply' and `reply' have been rewritten rather completely
indeed. They join Reply-To: and Mail-Followup-To: dependent on
the context (i.e., *reply-to-honour*#491, *followup-to-honour*#397,
see "Mailing lists"#10 for the picture), and if they did, use
this list as the receivers exclusively. It now honours
*recipients-in-cc*#484 even for such addressees. (And now i wonder
whether i should have credited Paul Vojta for that.)
Also `Lreply' would have crashed for mails with Reply-To: but
without *reply-to-honour*#491 set. We now have a test.
Note *replyto* is obsoleted in favour of *reply-to*#490.

v14.9.0 ("Long-tailed tit"), 2017-07-16
---------------------------------------
This is a major feature release which took about ~22 months (24
less two) of development to complete, and which imposed massive
changes under the hood, but also quite a lot of user visible
changes, including some **backward incompatibilities**.
As usual, "s-nail -d" will show obsoletion warnings.
We gain noticeable improvements regarding scriptability and its
reliability, but also for interactive use cases, especially
notable to users is our completely new M(ailx)L(ine)E(ditor) that
supports rather real tabulator expansion and program-mode-context-
sensitive key bindings.
We now support macros with arguments, which can be `shift'ed,
a `return' status can be used, and a `vexpr' multiplexer offers
some arithmetic and string operations. `commandalias'es are
recursive, further command modifier prefixes, like `ignerr', give
a hand that we otherwise could not offer. In compose-mode the new
`~^' command escape allows some message and attachment access, and
can be used, e.g., to implement things like custom headers, and
has been especially designed for scripted access via the new
*on-compose-splice* and *on-compose-splice-shell* hooks.
S-nail will move (more or less) backward-incompatibly to sh(1)ell
compatible argument quoting (documented in "COMMANDS"), and an
increasing number of commands do support this already: new ones
exclusively, some old ones have either been switched (like
`localopts'), others -- noticeably `set' -- can be switched to the
new syntax with a `wysh' command modifier prefix. E.g.:
? define __xv {
# Be careful to choose sh(1)ell-style on _entire_ line!
localopts yes; wysh set verbose; ignerr eval "${@}"; return $?
}
? commandalias call echo boo-boo
? commandalias xv call __xv
? xv list
? commandalias xv '\'call __xv
? xv list
Calling the latter `xv' for `list' will give more detailed command
information, including which kind of argument is used.
I have not managed to implement the three features i have started
this development cycle for, these are thus subject to further
development, just like wysh for message-list argument commands to
support, e.g., negation, wysh for `if' and consorts, the --
terminator to finally overcome the ridiculous requirement to quote
entire shell commands filenames for commands like `pipe.
And and and.

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* This release brings some backward incompatibilities, outlined
in the following. Most users will not be affected, and we have
added a lot of compatibility cruft, but that will vanish in v15.
"$ s-nail -v"!
* The configuration and build system has changed.
Packagers have received updated package files.
o Anything which was WANT_xy before is now OPT_xy, and
compiled-in paths and values, like PREFIX or PAGER, have
gained a VAL_ prefix (thus VAL_PREFIX and VAL_PAGER).
This is _not_ true for non-persistent or environmental values,
e.g., DESTDIR, CC, etc., and also not for the overwritable
program variables during configuration, e.g., $awk.
o SENDMAIL -> VAL_MTA, SENDMAIL_PROGNAME -> VAL_MTA_ARGV0,
MAILSPOOL -> VAL_MAIL.
And NAIL -> VAL_MAILX, though this is still a lie.
o The make system now needs config..build..install or
all..install or tangerine (config..build..test..install).
Some constants which some experts may want to fine-tune have
been moved to config.h. Usual adjustments+doc via make.rc.
o The `build' phase can be parallelized by setting the $MAKEJOBS
environment variable, e.g., "make MAKEJOBS=-j4 build".
Note this variable is not tracked in the configuration.
(Gaetan Bisson)
o Unless DESTDIR is set an uninstallation script will be
installed along with the rest (see INSTALL file for more).
o Set the new OPT_CROSS_BUILD to avoid feature runtime tests,
only compile- and link-availability will be tested. (Juan RP)
o VERBOSE is implemented straight, but must be given at
configuration time in order to become honoured.
(William Yodlowsky)
o ADDCFLAGS / ADDLDFLAGS -> EXTRA_CFLAGS / EXTRA_LDFLAGS.
o The LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc. building processes will skip any path
which contains the string "fakeroot". (Hilko Bengen)
o We honour a set $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH#591 environment variable to
an extend that allows reproducible tests, which is why the
repository gained a [test-out] branch with some expected plain
text outputs. (reproducible-builds.org; Colin Watson)
The new *log-prefix*#424 variable aids in improving the
reproducibility of error messages.
o These are upward compatible changes.
* "make OPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000 all" should work.
* Internal and environment variables are now explicitly _defined_
and _tracked_ after variable handling has been rewritten
completely. Notes:
o This means that, e.g., "$ password=NOT_SECRET s-nail" will
**NOT** work no more, since *password*#459 is an internal
variable!
o But if you do, e.g., "? set TMPDIR=~/tmp", then this will
also be reflected in the program environment (it is an
environment variable) and thus affect child processes.
o Therefore we no longer have `setenv' and `unsetenv'.
o To integrate any other environment variable transparently
into our variable management, the new command `environ'#175
needs to be used, e.g., "? environ set NEWVAR=value" or
"? environ link EXISTINGVAR".
- -H#65 and -L#68 have been decoupled:
it used to be -e#62 -L#68 instead!
- *NAIL_{HEAD,TAIL}* have been obsoleted in favour of
*message-inject-head*#432 and *message-inject-tail*#433.
*NAIL_HIST{FILE,SIZE}* have been obsoleted in favour of
*history-file*#406 and *history-size*#409.
*NAIL_EXTRA_RC* has been obsoleted in favour of
*mailx-extra-rc*#427.
*batch-exit-on-error* has been obsoleted by *errexit*#387, which
works just like the POSIX sh(1)ell "set -e" construct; the
`ignerr'#113 command modifier (`-' for command escapes in compose
mode, and see below) can be used to ignore command errors even
then. (This will remain even if we at some later time will
support at least some of the sh(1) constructs which "swallow"
failures with set -e.)
*bsdannounce* is obsolete, the feature is integrated in
*header*#402 as this is much more useful. (This is however also
dependent upon the also new but well-known $POSIXLY_CORRECT#589
<> *posix*#474, but that is just how it is; these affect more
behaviour, and increasing.)
- Colour support has been changed backward in- and upward (from
user interface side) compatibly, see the manual section
"Coloured display"#18.
+ New commands: `colour'#148 and `uncolour'#149.
You can define context-sensitive, terminal-capability-
sensitive settings, e.g.:
if terminal && [ "$features" =% +colour ]
colour iso view-header ft=bold,fg=magenta,bg=cyan
colour 256 view-header ft=bold,fg=208,bg=230 subject,from
colour mono view-header ft=bold
colour mono view-header ft=bold,ft=reverse subject,from
endif
+ The variable *colour-pager*#373 defines whether colour and font
attribute sequences should be generated when viewing something
in $PAGER#587.
+ Set the variable *colour-disable*#372 to turn colour off
without affecting established settings.
+ It is deduced via termcap(5) (see below) whether the terminal
supports colors, e.g., "$ s-nail -Stermcap=Co#256".
This is also true if we don't have termcap support.
+ Support for 256-colour terminals. (Gavin Troy)
- `source'#266 series support shell pipes if the last character
of the "filename" ends with a vertical bar |, e.g.,
? source 'gpg -qd ~/.s-nailrc-private.gpg |'
- Shell pipes are also supported as targets for `move'#216,
`copy'#153 etc., yet unfortunately not with via a sh(1)ell token
parser, so that the target still has to be a single argument.
? copy . '| cat; echo huhu'
- Support for custom headers via the new `~^'#305 compose-mode
command escape and in addition, or alternatively, with the
internal variable *customhdr*#377, which also can be covered by
`localopts'#203. (Sergey Matveev)
+ Support of $ORGANIZATION has been dropped.
+ Command escape `~e'#311 supports _any_ header.
+ Command escape `~^'#305 supports _any_ header.
- New -:#53 command line option can be used to more easily select
which startup files should be loaded, e.g., -:/ loads none.
(Robert Elz)
- `account'#128s and *folder-hook*#394s now have `localopts'#203
enabled by default.
- A first simple form of compose-mode hooks has been implemented:
*on-compose-enter*#452, *on-compose-leave*#453 and
*on-compose-cleanup*#451 can be set to macros which get invoked
at appropriate times.
For the `resend'#243 series there is *on-resend-enter*#457 and
*on-resend-cleanup*#456: this is very likely to change once
true message access is possible even in this mode.
An even more powerful mechanism is available via the also new
*on-compose-splice*#454 and *on-compose-splice-shell*#455 hooks.
These are executed in child processes and communicate with the
parent via their standard input and output, and therefore can
do anything and act as if they were the user.
`localopts'#203 are enabled and cannot be disabled (and extend
until the message is sent).
(Jens Schleusener, Rudolf Sykora)
? set on-compose-splice=ocs
? define ocs {
read ver
echo Splice protocol version is $ver
echo '~^header list'
read hl; vput vexpr es substring "${hl}" 0 1
if [ "$es" != 2 ]
echoerr 'Failed to read header list, bailing out'
echo '~x'
elif [ "$hl" @i!% ' cc' ]
echo '~^header insert cc Diet is your <mirr.or>'
read es; vput vexpr es substr "${es}" 0 1
if [ "$es" != 2 ]
echoerr 'Failed to insert Cc:, bailing out'; echo '~x'
end
end
}
- "The .netrc file"#37
+ gained support for comments.
(Walter Alejandro Iglesias, Ralph Corderoy)
+ `netrc'#219 now has a "load" subcommand.
+ the new *netrc-pipe*#446 obsoletes OPT_AGENT and
*agent-shell-lookup*, and can be used to load an encrypted
.netrc file, e.g.:
? set netrc-lookup netrc-pipe='gpg -qd ~/.netrc.gpg'
I.e., this is in usual .netrc syntax and thus possibly much
nicer than saying "? source 'gpg -qd ~/.credentials.gpg |'".
- termcap(5) / terminfo(5) support has been changed backward in-
and upward (from user interface side) compatibly, please read
"On terminal control and line editor"#17.
+ OPT_TERMCAP is by default enabled.
The new, by default enabled, configuration option
OPT_TERMCAP_VIA_TERMINFO can be used to (try to) use
terminfo(5) instead.
+ The variable *termcap*#554 can be used to freely define or
override terminal capabilities, and *termcap-disable*#556 will
disable interaction with the chosen library, leaving only
*termcap* in charge.
To use the so-called ca-mode on supporting terminals,
effectively turning S-nail into a fullscreen application,
*termcap-ca-mode*#555 must be set.
+ The built-in line editor has been rather completely rewritten
to be the Mailx-Line-Editor (OPT_MLE, default yes), and
supports wide glyphs (if possible), infinite line lengths
(2 GB) and more. Tabulator expansion is no longer an option
(but needs fnmatch(3)).
+ Optionally (OPT_KEY_BINDINGS, default yes) it has become
possible to freely define key bindings for the MLE via the new
`bind'#137 and `unbind'#138 commands. These key bindings can
make use of termcap(5) and/or terminfo(5) names. The MLE will
install a set of default bindings (unless there is a set
*line-editor-no-defaults*#423), more so with OPT_TERMCAP,
i.e., try "? bind*".
Sufficient support provided, one can now, e.g., type "p " and
then collect the message numbers to type, scrolling forward
and backward via key-bindings, without loosing the line
content, then commit the final line.
+ OPT_EDITLINE and OPT_READLINE support have been dropped.
The new MLE should not miss anything. Does it?
Tip: in an UTF-8 locale try "? !touch /tmp/hall{,öchen}" and
then autocomplete that: once, then ^Q, and again.
- `source'#266 can be used in `call'#139ed macros.
What sounds so innocent replaced an entire machinery and got rid
of a brilliant idea of Kurt Shoens from the 70s, but which never
worked with Nail/Heirloom extensions, namely macros, and in the
right order.
Accompanying this -X#82 can (dig multiline arguments and can) be
used to define macros and run them etc. Should work:
$ s-nail -X'define x {' -Xversion -Xx -X'}' -X'call x'
$ s-nail -X'source \' -X'"echo version|"' -Xx
Macros can be `undefine'#158d from within themselves, and re-
`define'#157d. It is still not possible to define macros
from within macros, and/or have inner macros, not to talk
about local scoping or anything more sophisticated such.
- -u#79 / $LOGNAME#580 ($USER) handling has been redefined,
and "-u USER" is now exactly the same as "-f %USER", and
$LOGNAME (and $USER) is actively set to the active user. (Afan)
$LOGNAME#580 is POSIX standardized and henceforth used and
preferred over $USER, which came from BSD. (Todd C. Miller)
- In the future (at least non-message-list) argument handling will
be changed backward-incompatibly to be sh(1)ell compatible (and
thus POSIX standardized), see "Shell-style argument quoting"#24.
New commands use it already today (`bind'#137, `colour'#148,
`headerpick'#194), some others (most importantly, `set'#254) can
be forced to do so via the new `wysh'#118 command prefix, as in:
? wysh set message-inject-tail=$'\n--steffen'
? bind base $'\cA,\x61' 'echo control-A and small a'
- We now actively manage *umask*#561: 0077 by default, but an
empty string will use the setting that is active upon startup.
Just like changes to (known) environment variables, this setting
will also be inherited by any child process.
(Walter Alejandro Iglesias)
- Anything SENDMAIL / *sendmail*-ish has been renamed to *mta*#440,
*mta-arguments*#441, *mta-no-default-arguments*#442 and
*mta-argv0*#444.
The reason is that in v15 we won't even have *smtp*: it is just
another form of MTA, and thus obsolete by itself.
Note that *mta-arguments* is now parsed via the shell-token
parser, so the following ends up exactly as desired.
? set mta-arguments='-t -X "/tmp/my log"'
For now we support a hack that understands a file:// URL in
*mta*, too, but that is also the default if there is no protocol.
E.g.: "? set mta=smtp://a:b@xy.z"
- The "spamd" *spam-interface*#524 is obsolete. I haven't tested
it since my main machine died, it is error prone since it assumes
internals of the spamassassin wire protocol, and there never was
a speed improvement over "spamc". (However it could react upon
the "is-spam" state of a message, which "spamc" doesn't allow.)
- The new *inbox*#417 variable will henceforth be looked up when
searching for a primary system mailbox (as in "? File %"),
followed by the usual $MAIL#581 and compile-time defined local
mailspool search. (Stephen Isard, Jürgen Daubert)
- The semantic of -a#55 and `~@'#303 have been changed, and both
commands now use the same syntax:
-a file[=input-charset[#output-charset]]
- New "failinvaddr" keyword for *expandaddr*#389.
- We finally "can" the so-called (by myself) "Dr. Problem" (a bit):
(Dr. Werner Fink)
$ </dev/null s-nail -d:/ -sTrödler 'Dr. D. Iet <z@a.k>' 2>&1 |\
grep To:
s-nail: >>> To: "Dr. D. Iet" <z@a.k>
This can be done via the new `addrcodec'#130, too, note this
supports multiple modes (and the `vput'#117 command modifier):
$ echo 'addrcodec e Dr. Diet <t...@fu.soj> Curd' | s-nail -#:/
"Dr. Diet Curd" <t...@fu.soj>
- All commands with the string "codec" in their name use different
argument quoting, namely none at all, please read
"Raw data arguments for codec commands"#25.
This means that `urlcodec'#283 (and `imapcodec'#619) has
slightly changed semantics.
And, while here: there is a new `shcodec'#256, too.
- We gained "Command modifiers"#21: `\'#112 (avoid expansion of
`commandalias'#150es), `vput'#117 (store result in variable),
`ignerr'#113 (ignore an error of the following command, even
if the new *errexit*#387 is set), `wysh'#118 (use shell-style
arguments).
$ echo 'vput cwd resvar;echo $resvar' | s-nail -#:/
/home/steffen/src/nail.git
And the usual sh(1) stuff: `return'#249, `shift'#260, `eval'#177,
plus a `xcall'#292 stack-avoidance optimization (to be used in
place of a `call'#139 which would be the last called command).
And an "expr(1) like thing", yet simple, `vexpr'#288.
$ echo 'vexpr + 1 2' | s-nail -#:/
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000011
03 | 0x3 | 3
$ echo 'vput vexpr resvar + 1 2;echo $resvar' | s-nail -#:/
3
We actually start walking (*?*#331, *^*#333).
? vput vexpr res regex 'bananarama' 'Bana(.+)' '\$1\$0'
? echo $?/$^ERRNAME :$res:
1/NODATA ::
? vput vexpr res iregex 'bananarama' '(.+)rama' '\$1\$0'
? echo $?/$^ERRNAME :$res:
0/NONE :bananabananarama:
The command `vpospar'#289 can be used to manage the stack of
positional parameters, i.e., much like "set --".
It also offers the possibility to save and restore the stack to
and from variables. Etc.
Btw., to contact the maintainer (make.rc variables
VAL_CONTACT_WEB and VAL_CONTACT_MAIL):
? echo $contact-web; eval mail $contact-mail
- `if'#200 no longer performs automatic number conversion, we
use the explicit -lt, -gt etc. syntax of the sh(1).
Note: `if' will change to be almost identical to sh(1) if(1),
so please ensure proper test bracketing, even if it is less
convenient.
Moreover, the default string comparison mode has changed to
case-sensitive, just like in the shell. This is because in the
future this crux with trigger characters will vanish and `if'
etc. will simply slurp in already expanded shell tokens, it will
act like the shell in that respect. We have modifiers, though,
yet only "@i" for case-insensitivity, also for regex matches:
LC_ALL=C
i=`LC_ALL=C.utf8 s-nail -:/ -# -X '
\define cset_test {
\if [ "${ttycharset}" @i=% utf ]
\echo $LC_ALL
\xit 0
\end
\if [ "${#}" -gt 0 ]

Please note the `eval' in 'eval xcall cset_test "${@}". This is
a difference of S-nail/mailx and the sh(1)ell that will remain,
as documented in "COMMANDS"#20: whereas the shell implements
a language and performs standardized expansions on the line
until finally the command is called, S-nail will decide the type
of command line parsing dependent on the seen command, and will
then perform a single expansion. Therefore "${@}" will expand
to multiple arguments if $# is greater 0, but it will expand to
the empty string otherwise, which is not furtherly expanded away
since it is meaningless like it is in the shell: therefore $#
will be 1 (the empty string) not 0.
- Using an explicit proto:// prefix should get you the desired
thing apart of *newfolders*#447, e.g.:
? File maildir:///tmp/x.mdir
? copy * file:///tmp/x.mbox
- New variable *record-files*#486 can be set to extend the meaning
of *record*#485. *record-resent*#487 was there already.
- New variable *ifs*#413 acts a bit like the sh(1)ell's $IFS for,
e.g., the new `read'#233 command.
There is a `readctl'#235 command which can be used to manage
the active channel used by `read'#233.
- The `~' alias for `call'#139 is gone.
- `mimetype'#208 only allows specification of a single type per
call, on the other hand no need to quote that.
- `mimeview'#212 must now be used explicitly to look at any
non-text MIME part, for normal display etc. purposes we only
support "copiousoutput"#606 MIME handlers.
- New *socks-proxy*#523 can be used to proxy all network traffic
over a SOCKS5 proxy. (Gaetan Bisson)
ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^
- The manual has seen another major overhaul, all the variables
are now documented in a single, sorted list, and many
clarifications should have been added. I hope it has become
a better read.
(Predrag Punosevac, Michael Convey, Hariskar, Rudolf Sykora,
Respiranto, Thomas Dickey, Donald Mugnai)
- To support RFC 1524 a.k.a. .mailcap files (see below) many
"trigger"-characters have been added for *pipe-TYPE/SUBTYPE*#461,
which may (rarely) affect existing values.
The .mailcap support itself is not yet implemented.
- *mime-counter-evidence*#437 gained bit 4 (perform proper in-depth
content inspection as necessary; set to 0xE for all bits).
(Aharon Robbins)
- Maildir paths are now created recursively as necessary.
(Justin Ellingwood)
- -M#69 and -m#70 options have been added to enforce a special
send mode that will flag standard input / the given file with
the specified / detected MIME 'Content-Type:'. This can be used
to directly send, e.g., HTML log output.
(Viktor Szépe, Ralph Corderoy)
- Disallow symlinks on writable files. Note this requires
O_NOFOLLOW support for the operating-system-call open(2), but
which has been standardized a long time ago.
(Matthew Dillon)
- `retain'#248, `ignore'#201 etc. now differentiate in between
From (the From: header) and From_ (the MBOX ident).
In fact we now have a new `headerpick'#194 command which
is a multiplexer for all retain and ignore lists used, call it
without arguments to see the current setting(s).
In v15 only `headerpick' and the standard-imposed wrappers
`retain' and `ignore' will remain, all other wrappers will
vanish. Regular expressions can now be used if available:
? headerpick
headerpick type retain blahblahblah cc date from \
mail-followup-to message-id openpgp reply-to subject to \
user-agent
#headerpick type ignore currently covers no fields
#headerpick save retain currently covers no fields
headerpick save ignore '^Original-.*$' '^X-.*$' '^DKIM.*$'
headerpick forward retain cc date from list-id \
mail-followup-to openpgp reply-to subject to
#headerpick forward ignore currently covers no fields
- `top'#275 has been rewritten completely, `Top'#274 is new.
It uses a built-in set of retain/ignore headers, but it is
possible to register a custom set via `headerpick'#194.
Also, *toplines*#557 has been extended a bit and the new
*topsqueeze*#558 variable may pimp your `top' experience.
? headerpick top retain add subject
? top
[-- Message 1 -- 87 lines, 4791 bytes --]:
Subject: Re: I can't dist to myself
I wrote:
3.22. bounce_delivered
- `features' has been dropped, `version'#287 extended.
- The *prompt*#476 handling has changed: we lost the capability to
expand \?, \@ and \$, instead new "private" variables *?*#331,
*account*#342, *mailbox-resolved*#426 and
*mailbox-display*#425 have been introduced, and the prompt
is completely shell expanded (thus twice with `wysh' or in v15),
as if dollar-single-quote quoted. We do support the reverse-
solidus escaped bracket notation for embedding characters which
should not be counted when calculating the width of the prompt.
The `colour'#148 command has a slot for the prompt colour.
We gained *prompt2*#477 as a second level prompt.
? var prompt
wysh set \
prompt='?\${?}!\${!}[\${account}#\${mailbox-display}]? '
- The filename "-" can be used as a receiver, e.g.,
$ echo Hey,\ you | s-nail -:/ -Sexpandaddr -sUB -
- The -s#77 command line option, the `~s'#324 command escape
as well as the corresponding slots of `~^'#305 will actively
strip [\r\n] from their value (Debian #419840).
- New `read'#233 and `echoerr'#168 commands, mostly for
*on-compose-splice*#454.
But also `echon'#169 and `echoerrn'#170, which do not write
a trailing newline.
- New variable *r-option-implicit*#483 may be helpful to those
who regulary need the functionality of the -r#75 command
line option. (Felipe Gasper, Martin Neitzel)
- By using new "pseudo-URLs" one can automatize the use of S/MIME
keys / (certificates / intermediate include certificates) with
passwords. E.g., to drive b...@exam.ple, set
*smime-sign-cert-...@exam.ple* to the private key / certificate
pair as usual, the password lookup will then be performed for
b...@exam.ple.smime-cert-key, b...@exam.ple.smime-cert-cert and
b...@exam.ple.smime-include-certs.
Like this the password can be stored in an encrypted .netrc file
when *netrc-lookup*#445 and *netrc-pipe*#446 are set, or it may
be stored in an encrypted resource file that has been loaded via
`source'#266 as a simple *password*#459 variable.
Note that the prompting that happens as a last resort of
password lookup will still interfere with a possibly running
$PAGER#587 instance, dependent on the setting of *crt*#376, of
course. Proper job control handling and recognizing that we are
running $PAGER when doing that prompt is a TODO for v15. Sorry.
- Some commands, like `set'#254, `help'#197, `list'#202,
`mlist'#210 etc., now react upon the setting of *verbose*#564
and(/or) *debug*#380.
- `write'#291 uses iconv(3) as appropriate.
- *mbox-rfc4155*#429 has first been dropped, and was then
reintroduced with different semantics. Because, it can be
helpful if a messed up MBOX is read, in which case we henceforth
will warn you and point you to this:
? define mboxfix {
\localopts yes; \wysh set mbox-rfc4155;\
\wysh File "${1}"; \eval copy * "${2}"
}
? call mboxfix /tmp/bad.mbox /tmp/good.mbox
P.S. Here you see how weird the current thing still is, in v15:
? define mboxfix {
localopts yes; set mbox-rfc4155; File "${1}"; copy * -- "${2}"
}
And also in v15 we will not apply (proper) so-called MBOXO
quoting, but instead (simply MIME) re-encode mail messages.
- `call_if'#140 is new and, different to "? ignerr call", silent
and not messing with the return status.
- The new *smime-ca-flags*#509 and *ssl-ca-flags*#536 can be used
to fine-tune X509_STORE_set_flags(3) a.k.a the X509 CA
certificate verification.
? set ssl-ca-flags=partial-chain
? wysh set smime-ca-flags="${ssl-ca-flags}"
Also, *ssl-curves*#545 for TLSv1.3.
- Socket connections use TLS S(erver)N(ame)I(ndication) as
appropriate (RFC 7817).
- `alternates'#133 checks arguments and supports `vput'#117.
It by default no longer replaces but appends alternates, unless
*posix*#474 mode is active. There is a new `unalternates'#134
command to remove alternates.
- A new `charsetalias'#143 command. (Pietro Cerutti, mutt#3925)
- New commands `filetype'#181 and `unfiletype'#182: in the future
we will no longer know any builtin filetypes, in fact we already
simulate .gz etc. via the new mechanism as necessary:
? filetype \
bz2 'bzip2 -dc' 'bzip2 -zc' \
gpg 'gpg -d' 'gpg -e' \
gz 'gzip -dc' 'gzip -c' \
xz 'xz -dc' 'xz -zc' \
zst 'zstd -dc' 'zstd -19 -zc' \
zst.pgp 'gpg -d | zstd -dc' 'zstd -19 -zc | gpg -e'
- `~<'#300 now offers a "- [HERE-delimiter]" mode for pasting etc.
(Ralph Corderoy)
- `exit'#178 and `quit'#232 take an optional exit status.
(That is not fixated yet, though.)
- We have a useful -h / --help output. (Doug McIlroy)
- *encoding* obsoleted in favour of new *mime-encoding*#438, which
now defaults to base64.
- *allnet*#344 now works (broken since nail 10.00, 2002-09-29).
