   6 ** Restructure of field decoding features
   7
   8 Introduce backend mechanism of field-decoder and
   9 field-presentation-method to restructure field decoding features.
  10
  11 Field-decoder is registered into variable `mime-field-decoder-alist'.
  12 Each decoding function uses decoding method found from variable
  13 `mime-field-decoder-alist'.
  14
  15 New function `mime-set-field-decoder' is added to register field
  16 decoding method.
  17
  18 New function `mime-find-field-presentation-method' is added to get
  19 `field-presentation-method' object corresponding with specified
  20 field-presentation-mode.  Field-presentation-mode must be `plain',
  21 `wide', `summary' or `nov'.
  22
  23 New function `mime-find-field-decoder' is added to find field decoding
  24 method corresponding with field-name and field-presentation-mode.
  25
  26 New function `mime-decode-field-body' is added.  It is general field
  27 decoder.
  28
  29
  30 ** Function `mime-decode-header-in-buffer'
  31
  32 Renamed from `eword-decode-header'.  `eword-decode-header' is defined
  33 as obsolete alias.
  34
  35
  36 ** New function `mime-decode-header-in-region'
  37

  39 * Changes in FLIM 1.11
  40
  41 ** New function `mime-insert-text-content'
  42
  43 Add new generic function `mime-insert-text-content' and new mm-service
  44 `insert-text-content'.
  45
  46
  47 ** `insert-decoded-header' -> `insert-header'
  48
  49 mm-service `insert-decoded-header' was renamed to `insert-header'.
  50 Similarly generic function `mime-insert-decoded-header' was renamed to
  51 `mime-insert-header'.  However `mime-insert-decoded-header' was left
  52 as an obsolete alias.
  53
  54
  55 ** Behavior change of `mime-insert-header'
  56
  57 Each field-name of second and third argument of function
  58 `mime-insert-header' can include `:'.
  59
  60
  61 ** Abolish variable `mime-temp-directory'
  62
  63 Now FLIM uses `temporary-file-directory' instead of
  64 `mime-temp-directory'.  So environment variable "MIME_TMP_DIR" and
  65 "TM_TMP_DIR" are not effective to specify temporary directory of FLIM.
  66
  67
  68 ** Add new function `eword-decode-and-unfold-unstructured-field'
  69
  70
  71 ** Add new mm-backend `generic'
  72
  73 Add new mm-backend `generic'.  mm-backend `buffer' inherits the
  74 mm-backend `generic'.
  75
  76
  77 ** Change internal representation of `mime-entity' structure
  78
  79 Internal representation of `mime-entity' structure was changed to add
  80 NOV entries.
  81
  82
  83 ** `mime-entity-*-internal' and `mime-entity-set-*-internal'
  84
  85 Change `mime-entity-*-internal' and `mime-entity-set-*-internal' to
  86 macro.
