Hi,1. I try to write a macro allowing to open an attachment with another than the default program. Is there a way to refer to the filename of the attachment in the macro definition (like the %s in mailcap)?
No. You might play around with the `test=<command>` field in the mailcap and see if you can use that somehow. For example, one idea (untested) would be using setenv in the macro around the attachment opening:
macro ,a '<enter-command>setenv ATTPROGRAM foo<enter><view-mailcap><enter-command>unsetenv ATTPROGRAM<enter>' macro ,b '<enter-command>setenv ATTPROGRAM bar<enter><view-mailcap><enter-command>unsetenv ATTPROGRAM<enter>' And in your .mailcap application/baz; fooprogram %s; test=test x$ATTPROGRAM = xfoo application/baz; barprogram %s; test=test x$ATTPROGRAM = xbar ... application/baz; defaultprogram %s
2. When piping an attachment to an external program, filenames with spaces don't work. is there a way to enclose the filename with quotes before submitting it to the pipe?
You'll have to be more specific about what you are doing and how it's failing.
