Re: Reading html email using mutt

Hi Brandt,

I transmitted your question to Philippe Delavalade (the first ever Slint user with Braille by the way), and I forward you his answer, translated to English.

I assume that you could replace lynx with w3m in his answer.

Cheers,
Didier

Philippe's message below:

Hi Didier.

Finally I have a few minutes free to answer you.

In the .muttrc file I have the line :
set mailcap_path="~/.mailcap"

In .mailcap I have theses two lines :
text/html; /usr/bin/lynx -force_html '%s
application/xhtml+xml; lynx -force_html '%s'

Otherwise, in practice, once the message is opened with mutt, we press 'v',
with the up/down arrows you select the html part (or the multipart if there is none), then you press 'm' and lynx opens and you read knowing that the cursor
is placed on the links

later,

Hi all,


I set up mutt as instructed, several different sources, and when reading mail, I find many, if not most messages full of HTML tags.


Someone told me to pipe the messages from mutt to w3m, but I cannot find instructions on how to do this anywhere.


If someone can please, either refer me to a source, or assist me with the correct syntax to do this, I would be grateful.
