This is less a question about a specific implementation (although I
would like to know how to do this) and more about the concept in
general; is it possible to, at the stroke of a key (macro), have mutt save
an attachment to a file and then run a shell commandline with the saved
file's name some

The shell script sounds like a good idea; I'm trying to implement it but
I'm getting a funny error when I try to execute this:
macro attach o ":pipe-entry\ncat > /tmp/001 ; sz /tmp/001\n" "Send file"
It's saying "key is not bound" when a quick check of the "?" help screen
shows clearly that
Hi,

I think that's the right approach, though it could be done in just Mutt
macros too probably... But in a shell script you can use a temp
filename and check it doesn't exist and all that ki
