The __see__, __edit__, __compose__ and __print__ |

|
|

compose, and print actions (respectively). |

!!DESCRIPTION |
|
|
36 |
|
|
|
37 |
|
|
|
38 |
__run-mailcap__ (or any of its aliases) will use the |
|
|
39 |
given action to process each mime-type/file in turn. Each |
|
|
40 |
file is is specified as its mime-type, its encoding (eg. |
|
|
41 |
compression), and filename together, separated by colons. If |
|
|
42 |
the mime-type is omitted, an attempt to determine the type |
|
|
43 |
is made by trying to match the file's extension with those |
|
|
44 |
in the ''mime.types'' files. If the encoding is omitted, |
|
|
45 |
it will also be determined from the file's extensions. |
|
|
46 |
Currently supported encodings are __gzip__ (.gz) and |
|
|
47 |
__compress__ (.Z). A filename of |
|
|
48 |
__must__ be specied. |
|
|
49 |
|
|
|
50 |
|
|
|
51 |
Both the user's files (~/.mailcap; ~/.mime.types) and the |
|
|
52 |
system files (/etc/mailcap; /etc/mime.types) are searched in |
|
|
53 |
turn for information. |

67 |

|

|
|
70 |
called. |
