I can't solve your specific problem, but you might be interested in what
I did. Feel free to ask, if something isn't clear.
Since I was not satisfied with urlview (just URLs, no context), I
defined 2 keybindings in .muttrc
macro index \cb "|formail -I \"\" | txt2html.py >
$HOME/tmp/tmp.html\n!links $HOME/tmp/tmp.html\n"
macro pager \cb ...[the rest is the same]...
The script txt2html.py:
#! /usr/bin/env python
"""txt2html - Convert plain text to html with urls as links.
Usage: txt2html < in.txt > out.html
"""
import sys, re
url_rexp = re.compile(r"(http|https|ftp)://[-a-zA-Z:0-9./#%+~_?=&()@]+")
def replace(match_object):
url = match_object.group(0)
return """<a href="%(url)s">%(url)s</a>""" % vars()
txt = sys.stdin.read()
html = """<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8559-1">
<title>Converted by txt2html</title>
</head>
<body>

%s
</pre>
</body>
</html>
""" % url_rexp.sub(replace, txt)
sys.stdout.write(html)
