MIMEDUMP(1)
π MIMEDUMP(1) β User Contributed Perl Documentation β¨
okay bestie, gather round, because this one is short but it delivers. it's mimedump, a lil Perl utility living in the user-contributed Perl docs corner of the world, and honestly? it's giving one-job-and-does-it energy. no cap. π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
mimedump β dump out the contents of a parsed MIME message π
like. that's it. that's the whole brand. it takes a MIME message, it parses it, it dumps what's inside. iconic behavior, tbh.
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the vibe: it reads a MIME stream from stdin, and then it dumps its contents straight to stdout. that's the entire plot. π¦
no flags to memorize, no config file to cry over, no environment variables haunting you. it's a pipe-friendly lil angel. you feed it MIME on one end, you get the parsed contents spilling out the other end, and you move on with your day. main character energy fr fr. β¨
π SYNOPSIS π
mimedump < mime.msg
that's it. redirect a MIME message into it and go. π
ngl, the syntax is so tiny it feels illegal. one command, one redirect, zero drama. π
π AUTHOR π
- Andreas Koenig suggested this, and wrote the original code. absolute legend, we love a suggester who also ships. π
- Eryq perverted the hell out of it. π (their words, not mine β but honestly, respect the honesty.)
and that's the whole page, bestie. this doc came from perl v5.42.0, dated 2026-02-11, and it's genuinely one of the shortest little manpages you'll ever meet β so go forth, pipe some MIME, and slay. π§π
