Re: macro/prompt to trigger mailcap?
Darac Marjal: If you have one entry for the mime-type with the "copiousoutput" flag, and you put that AFTER one without, then mutt will use the copiousoutput program to auto_view the attachment, but it will invoke the other one when you "view-mailcap". Nice. But I'd like to *parse* the attachment only after I pressed a key, but then all attachments at once. -- ilf If you upload your address book to "the cloud", I don't want to be in it. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Have a macro to switch between them. You can probably write a simple sed or awk script to comute the stripped one from the full one, and keep it up to date with "make". Cheers, Cameron Simpson
