How can I fake it?
% cat acme.dump

I’m guessing I need to replace the last two lines with something like:
e x x x x x
4 57 0 0 0
/mnt/news/digitalmars/D/ Del Snarf | Look Newpost More
/acme/news
News digitalmars.D
—but what are the ‘x’ values? Looking through acme(4), I made a stab
at guessing the second line (window ID, the number or characters in
the tag as returned by wc, no chars in body (the way Mail reports it),
not a directory, and not modified), but what about the line starting
with ‘e’? Win uses “e 1 0 0 0 1”, Mail uses “e 1 0 0 0 5”; what are
these numbers and where are they documented?
Thanks,
