πŸ’… mmhwrap β€” the little wrapper that could (from the mmh-0.4 era) πŸŽ€

okay bestie, so you know how nmh and mmh both exist and their tools have literally the same names but are not compatible? yeah. this is the escape hatch for that whole situation. ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mmhwrap command [options...]

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So like, use mmhwrap when you wanna invoke mmh programs but you're not about to add the mmh bindir into $PATH, or when you want to install nmh and mmh both, which β€” iconic, honestly. 🫢

Here's the tea: their tools are equally named but incompatible, so you can only have one of the two tool chests accessible through $PATH at a time. That's just how it is, no cap. So if you've got the nmh tools in your $PATH (first), use the wrapper to get at the mmh tools instead. πŸ’…

Copy mmhwrap into a directory that's part of $PATH β€” likely $HOME/bin or /usr/local/bin. And you probably wanna rename mmhwrap to something shorter, like m for instance:

cp /usr/lib/mmh/mmhwrap $HOME/bin/m
chmod +x $HOME/bin/m

Then use it this way, bestie:

% m folder
inbox+ has 162 messages  (1-177); cur=131; (others).

% m scan -help
Usage: scan [+folder] [msgs] [switches]
  switches are:
  -form formatfile
  -width columns
  -(file) file
  -Version
  -help

% m scan f
   1  2012-02-13  To: meillo         laber blubb

% m refile l +foo

like, look at that. main character energy. 😭πŸ”₯
