Re: Image handling in mutt

Here is my mailcap entry, which works for me - had to deal with
annoying filename munging by mutt, and getting the "close the viewer"
bit working - this is quite a few years ago and now I can't even
remember why the ; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" or the sleep are needed,
but they were - heuristics annoy, but sometimes they are necessary:

image/*; (mv %s %s-\; feh -Z %s-\; rm -f %s-)& sleep 0.2s; test=test
-n "$DISPLAY"

Similarly my mailcap entry for pdf files:

application/pdf; (mv %s %s-.pdf\; evince %s-.pdf 2\>\&1 \; rm -f
%s-.pdf)& sleep 0.2s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"
image/pdf; /usr/bin/display-im6 %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"

Finally, occasionally I need to cleanly dump html, this one seems a bit simpler:

text/html; lynx -stdin -dump -width=$COLS; copiousoutput; compose=vim %s
