I got this from someone on this list and I like it a lot: set index_format="%3C%?M?+& ?%Z %[%b %d] %-16.16F [%-9.9O] %-33.33s (%4l)" What is get is this: 118 Oct 09 To mutt-users@mutt [mutt-user] short time in index view? \ (16) For some reason, my head is stuck this morning. I use `date +%d%whatever` all the time but I'm having a hard time understanding the index_format. How can I get: 118 Oct 09 11:35 To mutt-users, etc, etc, ^ In the above example?

man strftime.
%m/%d %H:%M gives "10/09 12:49" right here, now.
You can test strftime sequences with (for example):
date "+%m/%d %H:%M"

Grrr, now I get it. I seem to have missed the date_format section in
the .muttrc. Jeez

From the manual, section 6.3.84:
%d date and time of the message in the format specified by
``date_format'' converted to sender's time zone
%D date and time of the message in the format specified by
``date_format'' converted to the local time zone
Set date_format to something short.
Another option are the %{}, %(), %<>, and %[] formats:
%{fmt}
the date and time of the message is converted to sender's time
zone, and ``fmt'' is expanded by the library function
``strftime''; a leading bang disables locales
%[fmt]
the date and time of the message is converted to the local time
zone, and ``fmt'' is expanded by the library function
``strftime''; a leading bang disables locales
%(fmt)
the local date and time when the message was received. ``fmt''
is expanded by the library function ``strftime''; a leading bang
disables locales
%
the current local time. ``fmt'' is expanded by the library
function ``strftime''; a leading bang disables locales.

short time in index view?
Hi, I'm trying to get the short time to come up in my index view. I got all the %d %D and other variations regard sending time zone and receiving time zone (great if you are using Qmail). However, it's giving me very long date and time fields. How can I just get something like: 10/09/02 10:15 or 10/09 1:15. Something short and concise. TIA! -- Eric
