coming to think about this: if .muttrc specifies "vi" as editor and you
are at a std unix box, why not pipe the body of the message through "wc -l"
and put "Lines: " in front of the result? wait now 'til i try it...
Lines: 17 ok, it works, but it's kinda messy, and can only be done when
the message is finished, so no new lines are added. what i typed (and what
would have to be saved as a macro) was:
go to the top of the body "1G}j", then save ":w" (as a precaution, not
really neccessary), pipe through word-count "!Gwc -l", put literal lines:
in front of result "0sLines: <esc>", save that to some buffer ""aY" (the "
is needed here!), undo the whole sh*t "u", append buffer to headers section
"1G}"aP" (again, the "'s are needed), pray and get rid of the mess. cool,
eh? the buffer operations are possibly redundant, i mean, one could use
the default buffer...
