I'm sure he realized that a bit too late to cancel his message ;-P Here are the relevant entries from my own ~/.mailcap, FWIW: $ grep -C1 text/html ~/.mailcap #image/*; /seejpeg %s ; ; ; #text/html; lynx -child -force_html %s ; needsterminal ; ; text/html; w3m -T text/html %s ; needsterminal ; ; #This allows programs (e.g. MUTT) to convert HTML into plain text: #w3m sucks for printing stuff out: #text/html; w3m -dump -cols 80 -F -T text/html %s ; copiousoutput #lynx rocks for this: text/html; lynx -dump -force-html %s ; copiousoutput #MP3: Notice that I don't use an absolute path to lynx, since I like to let my PATH figure out which lynx to use on a case-by-case basis. I use the -child option to lynx because it allows me to return to Mutt by pressing left-arrow (or h, since I have vikeys enabled in my lynx.cfg). The description is useful for programs that care about it, but not necessary. I don't know what the nametemplate does off-hand, but everything seems to work 100% fine for me without it ;-) Also notice that you can use different browsers for the copiousoutput (inlined) version and the needsterminal (standalone) version of any given MIME type. In my case, Mutt inlines the -dump output from lynx, but if I view-attachment, Mutt will fire up w3m instead (since it's a much better browser). - Dave -- Uncle Cosmo, why do they call this a word processor?
