okay so this is the User Commands corner of the manual, and we're talking about frm, which lives in GNU Mailutils 3.16. Yes, that's the version. Slay.

✨ NAME ✨

frm — literally just the manual page for frm 3.16. That's the whole name section, no cap. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

frm [OPTION...] [URL ...]

that's it. options and then some URLs, if you have them. iconic.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

GNU frm — its whole job is displaying From: lines. That's the vibe. 🦋

  • -d, --debug — turns on debugging output, so you can see what's going on under the hood 🔍
  • *-f, --field=NAME* — pick which header field to display, NAME is the one you want
  • -l, --[no-]to — include the To: info in there too
  • -n, --[no-]number — show message numbers, so you can be like "oh that's message #4" 💅
  • -Q, --Quiet — do NOT display headers. silence. shhh 🤫
  • -q, --query — prints a message if the mailbox has some unread mail in it (a little heads up, a lil nudge 👀)
  • -S, --[no-]summary — print a summary of messages
  • *-s, --status=STATUS* — select messages with that specific attribute. your choices are: new, unread, old (same as unread, fr fr) or read — or any unambiguous abbreviation of those. so don't be out here abbreviating ambiguously, bestie 🙈
  • -t, --[no-]align — tidy mode ✨ aligns the subject lines so everything looks cute and organized

🧚 Global debugging settings 🧚

  • *--debug-level=LEVEL* — set the Mailutils debugging level
  • --[no-]debug-line-info — show source info alongside your debugging messages

🎀 Configuration handling 🎀

  • *--config-file=FILE* — load this configuration file; also implies --no-config (note that, it matters!)
  • --config-lint — check the configuration file's syntax and then exit
  • --config-verbose — verbosely log the parsing of the configuration files
  • --no-config — don't load site and user configuration files at all
  • --no-site-config — skip the site-wide configuration file specifically
