Hi all,
I'm receiving reports in html containing images. In mutt, those images
are separated from the html file. For example, when I press 'v', I see
the html file on one line and the image on another. Pressing 'enter'
fires up firefox to display the html file. Problem, the image will not
show in that page (it doesn't find the image's address).
I've been looking around for a solution but failed until now, so
that's the reason I'm posting here.
How could I achieve that?
When I want to see an html message as html, including images, etc., I
pipe it through mhonarc and to a browser, using this command:
macro pager B ":unset wait_key\n<pipe-message>mhonarc -rcfile ~/.m2h_rcfile -single
| browser\n:set wait_key\n"
MHonArc nicely adds the message header to the HTML body so it's all
very readable in the browser. The resource file, .m2h_rcfile, lets you
configure options for including or not including various MIME types,
including images.
Thanks for the tip but unfortunately it doesn't work here. When I
press 'B' in the pager, it opens iceweasel on the homepage (and not
with the desired html file). On the command line one can then read:
Warning: No end boundary delimiter found in message body
Processing stopped, signal caught: SIGPIPE
After some more searching, it seems that mhonarc doesn't support
(well?) multipart/related content-type messages.
Any (other) ideas?
I have not had any problems with mhonarc and browser on various Macs.
These are both programs I had to install separately. I think browser may
be Mac-specific, so on other platforms you may have to revise the
command to get the mhonarc output to your favorite browser.
Also, the mhonarc resource file (~/.m2h_rcfile on my system) can be
customized to handle many different MIME types, etc., but this takes
some doing. There's online documentation available for it, which can be
found through Google.
