I never used nfrm, but I missed frm when I moved to a machine
without elm installed. I use a shell function as a frm
replacement (only works on mbox files, naturally).
frm () {
mbox=$1
if test -z $mbox; then mbox=$MAIL; fi
egrep '^From ' $mbox
}
This is off the top of my head. You'll probably need to tweak
it. Add some fanciness using awk on the last line.
