110 4.1 edit tm/TM-CFG (optional)
112 You can edit tm/TM-CFG file.
114 By default, tm is installed into /usr/local/. If you want to change this,
115 please modify the variables `PREFIX' and `EXEC_PREFIX'.
118 4.2 edit external methods (optional)
120 You can edit external methods in `tm/methods/' directory for your
123 tm/methods/tm-au for audio
124 tm/methods/tm-file for file extraction
125 tm/methods/tm-image for image
126 tm/methods/tm-mpeg for MPEG
127 tm/methods/tm-plain for plain text
128 tm/methods/tm-html for HTML
129 tm/methods/tmdecode decoder
131 By default, tmdecode uses the `mmencode' command, which is part of
132 the metamail package (available by anonymous ftp from
133 ftp://thumper.bellcore.com/pub/nsb). If you don't have the metamail
134 package, please modify tmdecode to use decode-b instead of mmencode.
141 You can specify the Emacs command name, for example if you want to use
142 `mule' as the Emacs command:
144 % make all EMACS=mule
151 You can specify the Emacs command name, for example if you want to use
152 `xemacs' as the Emacs command:
154 % make install EMACS=xemacs
159 Please insert `(load "mime-setup")' in ~/.emacs.
164 gnus-mime provides automatic MIME preview feature for Gnus.
166 If you don't want to use automatic MIME preview feature, please
169 (setq gnus-show-mime nil)
171 In addition, Gnus 5.2 is designed to support automatic MIME preview
172 feature. Of course, gnus-mime provides this feature for Gnus 5.0.*
173 and Gnus 5.1.*, but it is unnatural.
175 When automatic MIME preview mode, Gnus do MIME processing if a
176 message has a Mime-Version field. If it does not have one, Gnus does
177 not do MIME processing, in default.
179 Gnus 5.0.*, 5.1 and Gnus 5.2 have a variable `gnus-strict-mime'. If
182 (setq gnus-strict-mime nil)
184 Gnus does MIME processing even if a message does not have a
187 In Gnus 5.2, if `gnus-strict-mime' is not nil, variable
188 `gnus-decode-encoded-word-method' is called. gnus-mime uses it to
189 decode RFC 2047 encoded-words. So it is not necessary to reset
195 tm-gnus provides automatic MIME preview feature for GNUS 3.15 or
198 If you don't want to use automatic MIME preview feature, please
201 (setq tm-gnus/automatic-mime-preview nil)
206 If you use vm, please insert `(require 'tm-vm)' in ~/.vm.
208 tm works well with BBDB: If you use VM, please insert
209 (require 'tm-vm) *after* (bbdb-insinuate-vm).
211 Important changes have been made to the VM interface in TM v7.102,
212 users upgrading from an earlier version should read the documentation
213 of tm-vm (`News' section) for details.
218 If you have the PGP and Mailcrypt packages, you can use PGP with
219 MIME. Currently, PGP/MIME (RFC 2015) and draft-kazu-pgp-mime-00.txt
220 are proposed, so tm provides both ways.
222 For decoding, please insert the following into ~/.emacs:
224 ======================================================================
231 ======================================================================
233 tm-pgp.el is an internal method module to support PGP.
235 For encoding, tm-edit provides 2 mechanisms. One is for signing or
236 encrypting for message as application/pgp. There are two commands,
237 `mime-editor/set-sign' and `mime-editor/set-encrypt'. They set a
238 message as signed, encrypted or not.
240 Another one is for content. There are 2 kinds of enclosures for PGP:
241 ``signed'' and ``encrypted''. Their enclosure are bound to key and
242 menu. If you use this mechanism, please specify 2 variables:
243 `mime-editor/signing-type' and `mime-editor/encrypting-type'. They
244 requires following values:
246 pgp-elkins processed as PGP/MIME (RFC 2015)
247 pgp-kazu processed as draft-kazu-pgp-mime-00.txt
250 If you use ``signed'' and ``encrypted'' as PGP/MIME, please insert
253 ======================================================================
254 (setq mime-editor/signing-type 'pgp-elkins)
255 (setq mime-editor/encrypting-type 'pgp-elkins)
256 ======================================================================
258 If you use ``signed'' and ``encrypted'' as draft-kazu-pgp-mime-00.txt,
259 please insert into ~/.emacs:
261 ======================================================================
262 (setq mime-editor/signing-type 'pgp-kazu)
263 (setq mime-editor/encrypting-type 'pgp-kazu)
264 ======================================================================

301 (hilit-rehighlight-buffer-quietly)
304 ======================================================================
307 6.6 code sample for browse-url
309 If you have browse-url.el (included in Gnus 5.*, September Gnus and
310 Emacs 19.30 or later), you can use URL button in
311 mime/viewer-mode. Sample code follows:
313 ======================================================================
314 (setq browse-url-browser-function
315 (if (eq window-system 'x)
318 (autoload browse-url-browser-function "browse-url"
319 "Ask a WWW browser to show a URL." t)
320 ======================================================================
323 7 How to use mime/viewer-mode
325 In tm-MUAs, you can use mime/viewer-mode if you press the `v' key (in
326 VM, `Z' key) in Summary mode. Or automatic MIME previewed buffer's
327 major-mode is mime/viewer-mode. mime/viewer-mode has following
328 functions (these key bindings are prefixed with C-c in VM):
330 q quit from mime/viewer-mode
331 u move to upper content
332 p or M-TAB move to previous content
333 n or TAB move to next content
334 SPC scroll up or move to next content
335 M-SPC or DEL scroll down or move to previous content
336 RET move to next line
337 M-RET move to previous line
338 < move to beginning of message
339 > move to end of message
340 v play current content
341 e extract as file current content
342 C-c C-p print current content
343 f display X-Face in current message
344 button-2 play current content or browse URL
