% Thanks for yours and other suggestions. It seems like par is for me, in
You're welcome :-)
% that it's independent of any editor and thus will let me keep my
% present one (mcedit - which does have paragraph formatting, but not quite
% usable for this purpose).
Yes, indeed; that's a nice feature that I've taken with me as well.
%
% Now, I would like to have par executed both upon entering the editor to
% make the quotes nice and readable and then afterwards upon leaving the
% editor so that quotes manipulated by me as well as my own jottings are
% formatted to eye-candy.
Oho; getting fancy, are we? :-)
%
% Preferably it should be transparent and automatic, i.e. if I use "r",
% ",a" or "L" par is executed thereupon and once more when leaving the
% editor.
Sounds like you probably want to replace, or wrap, your editor rather
than mucking about with various macros for various keys...
%
% Is this possible and if so how would I enter this in the .muttrc?
*Anything* is possible in the mutt world :-) What about creating a
shell script par-vim-par.sh that runs par on the file it's handed,
calls vi[m] on it, and then runs par again before exiting? You'd
simply modify your "set editor=" line to call that script instead.
