-What's MEL
+What's FLIM
===========
- MEL stands for "MIME Encoding Library". It consists of following
+ FLIM is a library to provide basic features about message
+ representation or encoding. It consists of following
modules:
- mel.el --- main module
- mel-b.el --- base64 (b-encoding) encoder/decoder
- mel-q.el --- quoted-printable and q-encoding encoder/decoder
- mel-u.el --- unofficial module for uuencode
- mel-g.el --- unofficial module for gzip64
+ std11.el --- STD 11 (RFC 822) parser and utility
+
+ mime.el --- MIME library
+
+ mime-def.el --- Definitions about MIME format
+
+ mime-parse.el --- MIME parser
+
+ mel.el --- MIME encoder/decoder
+ mel-dl.el --- base64 (b-encoding) encoder/decoder
+ (for Emacs 20 with dynamic loading support)
+ mel-b.el --- base64 (b-encoding) encoder/decoder
+ (for other emacsen)
+ mel-q.el --- quoted-printable and q-encoding encoder/decoder
+ mel-u.el --- unofficial module for uuencode
+ mel-g.el --- unofficial module for gzip64
+
+ eword-decode.el --- encoded-word decoder
+ eword-encode.el --- encoded-word encoder
+
+ mailcap.el --- mailcap parser and utility
Installation
For example, if PREFIX=/usr/local and EMACS 19.34 is specified, it
will create the following directory tree:
- /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/mel/ --- MEL
+ /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/flim/ --- FLIM
+
+ You can specify site-lisp directory, for example
+
+ % make install LISPDIR=~/share/emacs/lisp
+
+ If `LISPDIR=...' is omitted, site-lisp directory of the specified
+ emacs command is used (perhaps /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp or
+ /usr/local/lib/xemacs/site-lisp).
You can specify other optional settings by editing the file
- MEL-CFG. Please read comments in it.
+ FLIM-CFG. Please read comments in it.
load-path (for Emacs or MULE)
=============================
- If you are using Emacs or Mule, please add directory of MEL to
+ If you are using Emacs or Mule, please add directory of FLIM to
load-path. If you install by default setting, you can write
subdirs.el for example:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
- (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("apel" "mel"))
+ (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("apel" "flim"))
--------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are using XEmacs, there are no need of setting about
Command base64-encode-region (start end)
- Encode region START to END of current buffer using base64.
+ Encode current region by base64.
+ START and END are buffer positions.
+
+ This function calls internal base64 encoder if size of region is
+ smaller than `base64-internal-encoding-limit', otherwise it calls
+ external base64 encoder specified by `base64-external-encoder'. In
+ this case, you must install the program (maybe mmencode included in
+ metamail or XEmacs package).
Command base64-decode-region (start end)
- Decode region START to END of current buffer using base64.
+ Decode current region by base64.
+ START and END are buffer positions.
+
+ This function calls internal base64 decoder if size of region is
+ smaller than `base64-internal-decoding-limit', otherwise it calls
+ external base64 decoder specified by `base64-external-decoder'. In
+ this case, you must install the program (maybe mmencode included in
+ metamail or XEmacs package).
Command quoted-printable-encode-region (start end)
- Encode region START to END of current buffer using quoted-printable.
+ Encode current region by quoted-printable.
+ START and END are buffer positions.
+
+ This function calls internal quoted-printable encoder if size of
+ region is smaller than `quoted-printable-internal-encoding-limit',
+ otherwise it calls external quoted-printable encoder specified by
+ `quoted-printable-external-encoder'. In this case, you must install
+ the program (maybe mmencode included in metamail or XEmacs package).
Command quoted-printable-decode-region (start end)
- Decode region START to END of current buffer using quoted-printable.
+ Decode current region by quoted-printable.
+ START and END are buffer positions.
+
+ This function calls internal quoted-printable decoder if size of
+ region is smaller than `quoted-printable-internal-decoding-limit',
+ otherwise it calls external quoted-printable decoder specified by
+ `quoted-printable-external-decoder'. In this case, you must install
+ the program (maybe mmencode included in metamail or XEmacs package).
Command uuencode-encode-region (start end)
Command base64-insert-encoded-file (FILENAME)
- Insert base64 encoded file.
+ Encode contents of file FILENAME to base64, and insert the result.
+
+ It calls external base64 encoder specified by
+ `base64-external-encoder'. So you must install the program (maybe
+ mmencode included in metamail or XEmacs package).
Command quoted-printable-insert-encoded-file (FILENAME)
Function base64-encode-string (STRING)
- Encode STRING as base64 and return it.
+ Encode STRING to base64, and return the result.
Function base64-decode-string (STRING)
- Decode STRING as base64 and return it.
+ Decode STRING which is encoded in base64, and return the result.
Function q-encoding-encode-string (STRING &optional MODE)
- Encode STRING as Q-encoding of encoded-word.
+ Encode STRING to Q-encoding of encoded-word, and return the result.
MODE allows `text', `comment', `phrase' or nil. Default value is
`phrase'.
Function q-encoding-decode-string (STRING)
- Decode STRING as Q-encoding of encoded-word.
+ Decode STRING which is encoded in Q-encoding and return the result.
Function base64-encoded-length (STRING)
