As I mentioned in my original mail, this has become a pain
for me - a real pain - I want to be always in my ~ dir.
Default save from mutt must be in ~ and when I want to
read something into a mail edit session or add an attachment,
9+ times out of 10 the file is in my ~ dir.
So I had enough and changed this function:
u() {
if [ $1 ]
then
mutt $@
else
cd #/data/Mail
^^^^^^^^^^^
mutt
cd -
fi
}
Changing and navigating folders is one of the most fundamental
functions of a MUA so something that makes this more convenient
by obviating a silly keypress each time can IMO, hardly be
regarded as adding a kitchen sink.
(The reading and attaching problem, may be fixed if with the set
editor command you could cd to another dir before launching your
editor).
