🎀 minc(1) 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the minc page — it’s in section 1 of the General Commands Manual, and it’s literally just here to help you incorporate new messages. no cap. 💌

✨ NAME ✨

minc — incorporate new messages

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

minc [-q] dirs ...

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

minc incorporates new messages in the maildir folders dirs by moving them from new to cur, and adjusting the filenames. yes, it’s giving “tidying up your inbox era.” 🧚

If used non-interactively with no specified folders, minc reads directory names from the standard input. so it can just vibe with stdin, no folder args needed. 🫶

By default, the new filenames are printed, separated by newlines. very “here’s what I did” of it. ✨

The options are as follows:

  • -q — Quiet: don’t print new filenames. lowkey minimal, highkey useful. 🤫

🦋 EXIT STATUS 🦋

The minc utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. slay when it works, sad little number when it doesn’t. 😭

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥
