I think you can get the behavior you want by defining one mailcap entry with copiousoutput and one without, for example: image/*; display %s image/*; convert -geometry 80x1000 %s pbm:- | pbmtoascii ; copiousoutput (Just an example... you probably want test= to check $DISPLAY, etc) Aron }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/2972#comment:>
