pan-attach is a crude yet potentially useful script that when configured as pan's external editor, allows one to attach files as text (identity encoding), uuencoded, or yenc (altho yenc unfortunately doesn't work with pan >0.90 at this time due to pan's charset rules, see pan-bug 359275 -- it should work with 0.14.x pan, however).
Download the file and open it in a text editor. Set the executable bit when you are comfortable that it's not going to eat your system or something, and run it from the command line to get the help output. Set it up in pan as instructed, and try it out. =8^) Unfortunately it doesn't have a GUI file picker and encode type selector set up yet, so it scans the passed message working file for a couple "magic" text strings that give it that information. However, it's better than nothing. If I get ambitous, I'll update it to use xdialog or the like at some point. You will need uuenview, from the uudeview package, installed, as that's what it uses for the actual encoding step. The URL's mentioned in the script if your distribution doesn't package it. pan-attach can be found here (as long as not too many people try to d/l and DOS my monthly bandwidth allowance): http://members.cox.net/pu61ic.1inux.dunc4n -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
