Greetings -
I'm curious if anyone besides me would be interested in a MailMate
option to
use an external text editor for composing messages? After about 40
years of
using DEC's keypad controlled text editor, and having recently taken
the VMS
cluster down, this is something I now really wish I still had
available. I
do have a very decent emulation of it (jed) running on OS X, and it's
easy
to call, at least from non-GUI programs. But, MailMate is far
superior to
mutt, et al., so I thought I'd see if there's enough demand to make
it worth
implementing. As well, Text Wrangler/BB Edit are wonderful editors
for
those who prefer GUI tools, and there is no shortage of other good
character
cell and GUI text editors.
These are already available. If I'm not mistaken, there are bundles
that allow you to edit/compose a message in Aquamacs, TextMate and
SublimeText and you can take these as inspiration for creating a
bundle for the editor of your choice.
The mailing list has more info about these. The most recent thread
about this topic starts here:

If you search the list, you should find some more.
I actually wanted to try use these but haven't figure out how ;/
Anyone got a quick info on when to actually run the command ?
I know i can do it *on* the actual already open mail message but that
leaves me with a 'dead' window ;/
