I was briefly inspired by the O'Reily book 'Practical Internet
Groupware' and a mail oriented project I'm working on, to write this
script. It handles rfc 2368 mailto: links in urlview and passes them on
to the mutt command line.
This sort of stuff:
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=What%20a%20dumb%20RFC>
or
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?[EMAIL PROTECTED]&subject=Hi%20There!>
Gets rewritten (most of the time) to:
mutt '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' -s 'What a dumb RFC'
and
mutt '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' -s 'Hi There!'
There's a fairly remote possibility that someone else might find this
useful and want to add it to their web of mutt helpers, so I'm posting
it here..
It doesn't do extra headers like 'In-Reply-To:' or body text. This
wouldn't have been too hard to add.
Change the line in url_handler.sh that calls mutt:
mutt `echo $url | sed 's;^[^:]*:\(.*\);\1;'`
to
mutt-rfc2368 $url
