Re: mailcap problems

["Wilkinson, Alex" <alex.wilkinson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Try the following:

image/jpeg; eog %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY";

make sure you also have the MIME type defined in your mime type file.
e.g. from /usr/local/etc/mime.types

image/jpeg  jpe jpeg jpg

        In my /etc/mailcap file I see:
        
         image/*; eog %s
        
        and in my .muttrc, just to make things really clear, I added
        
         set mailcap_path=/etc/mailcap
        
        and then I also tried
        
         set mailcap_path=~/.mutt_mailcap
        
        and copied the contents of /etc/mailcap there. None of these things 
        worked; the error message didn't change.
        
        I've done web searches, and found people with similar complaints, but 
        their issues all seemed to end up being somewhat different (problems 
with 
        mutt interfacing with pdf readers and like that).
        
        Can anyone help me? (Fedora Core 1, mutt 1.4.1i.)
