- This package allows the reading of NeXTmail on nonNeXT machines. Specifically,
- it will decode the NeXTmail and show you the textual part of the message.
- NeXT attachments are noted in the textual output.
-
- I didn't write this code. I pried it out of an old NeXT Users Journal (which
- is now defunct). When I run across NeXTmail within my mail reader (elm), I
- pipe it to "denext" which then allows me to preview the message before
- transferring it to my NeXT.
-
- The conversion of rich text to plain ascii isn't perfect so you will see
- a little RTF in the ascii but it's quite readable.
-
- README This file.
- denext The main shell script. Modify the variables at the top.
- dertf.l The lex for the rtf stripper.
- makefile A quick makefile to compile dertf.l
- stripnextsnd.c Unused but in the original article. A program to play sound
- attachments on a Sun Sparc.
-
- Enjoy...
