WHATNOW(1) [mmh-0.4] WHATNOW(1) NAME whatnow2 - front-end for handling drafts SYNOPSIS whatnow [command |-Version] |-help] DESCRIPTION Whatnow is the default program that queries the user about the disposi- tion of a composed draft. It is normally automatically invoked by one of the mmh commands comp, dist, forw, or repl after the initial edit. When started, the editor is started on the draft. Then, whatnow can called with one of the commands. edit re-edit using the same editor that was used on the preceding round unless a profile entry `<lasteditor>-next: <editor>' names an alternate editor edit <editor> invoke <editor> for further editing list list the draft on the terminal display list the message being distributed/replied-to on the terminal whom list the recipients of the message send send the message refile +folder refile the draft into the given folder delete delete the draft and exit attach files add the named files to the draft as MIME attach- ments alist list the MIME attachments detach numbers remove MIME attachments by number When entering your response, you need only type enough characters to uniquely identify the response. For the edit response, any valid switch to the editor is valid. For the send response, any valid switch to send(1) is valid. For the refile response, any valid switch to refile is valid. See mh-profile(5) for further information about how editors are used by mmh. It also discusses how environment variables can be used to direct whatnow's actions in complex ways. If the initial edit fails, no new draft is created, but any existing re-used draft is preserved. Failures of later edits are ignored and another prompt is printed. Consult the mh-draft(7) man page for more information.
