That amount is limited by internal - buffers. -- If a component has trailing whitespace, e.g., body:component="> ", - mhl now trims that whitespace off when filtering blank text lines. -- An "rtrim" flag has been added to mhl to remove any trailing - whitespace from filtered text lines. A corresponding "nortrim" flag - has also been added. -- The default locations for configuration files and suppoooort binaries - have been changed. Configuration files now install into ${sysconfdir}/nmh, - and support binaries are placed in ${libexecdir}/nmh. If you are upgrading - an existing installation you should look for old configuration files in - ${sysconfdir} and merge any local customizations into the new files in - ${sysconfdir}/nmh, then remove the old files. ${libdir} will also contain - obsolete support programs that should be removed. -- When building from source, configure will derive ${prefix} from an existing - nmh installation if it finds one in your $PATH. -- Added getmymbox and getmyaddr mh-format(5) function escapes. -- New -changecur, -nochangecur, -fixtype, and -decodetypes switches have been - added to mhfixmsg(1). -- mhfixmsg now removes an extraneous trailing semicolon from header - parameter lists. -- Added -convertargs switch to repl(1), to pass arguments to programs - specified in the user's profile or mhn.defaults to convert message - content. -- Added mhical(1), to display, reply to, and cancel iCalendar (RFC 5545) - event requests. -- added multiply format function -- "mhparam bindir" prints the path to the directory containing the public - executables (${bindir}). -- new "-prefer" switch for mhshow (and mhlist and mhshow), to allow specifying - the preferred content types to show, if present in a multipart alternative. -- mh-format now has %(kilo) and %(kibi) functions, to allow printing - numbers as, for example, "10K", or "2.3Mi" -- Support for the -sendmail flag to send/post to change the sendmail - binary when using the sendmail/pipe MTS. - ----------------- OBSOLETE FEATURES ----------------- -- The undocumented -queue switch to post was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was - removed in this release. -- conflict(8) was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was removed in this release. -- mhtest(8) was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was removed in this release. -- msh(1) was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was removed in this release. -- Support in alias files for the the "*" address-group (everyone) was - deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was removed in this release. - ------------------- DEPRECATED FEATURES ------------------- -- Support for the MHPDEBUG environment variable is deprecated and will be - removed from a future nmh release. Instead, use the -debug switch to pick. -- With the move of support binaries from ${libdir} to ${libexecdir}/nmh, the - mostly undocumented 'libdir' mhparam(1) component has been replaced by a - new 'libexecdir' component. 'libdir' will be removed in a future release. - --------- BUG FIXES --------- -- The format scanner no longer subtracts 1 from the width. This has the - effect of no longer counting the trailing newline in the output of - scan(1), inc(1), and the other programs that rely on the format scanner.
