@chapter What is tm-view?
+@cindex filter
+@cindex method
The tm-view is a general MIME viewer running on GNU Emacs.@refill
tm-view is a user interface kernel to view and navigate MIME message.
tm-view drives some programs to navigate each content-type
-(@ref{(tm-en)content-type})s, they are called
-@cindex{method}@strong{method} (@ref{method}). tm-view calls some
-programs to display each contents and headers in preview buffer, they
-are called @cindex{filter}@strong{filter} (@ref{Two buffers for an
-article}). Method and filters are tm-view application program. They
-expand tm-view to treat various kinds of MIME types.

@node content-button, content-header, MIME display, MIME display
@section content-button
+@cindex content-number
content-subject displays abstract for the part. It is placed in top of
the part.@refill
First number field represents position of a content in the part. It is

Second string part represents title. It is created by following:
@node content-header, content-body, content-button, MIME display
@section content-header
+@cindex content-header-filter
A content header displays the header portion of a part in the
preview-buffer. However it is annoying to display header for every
@code{mime-viewer/childrens-header-showing-Content-Type-list}.@refill
When content-header is displayed, content-header are formated by the
-program called by
-@cindex{content-header-filter}@strong{content-header-filter}.
-Content-header-filter is searched from variable
+program called by @strong{content-header-filter}. Content-header-filter
+is searched from variable
@code{mime-viewer/content-header-filter-alist}. Its key is major-mode
of the raw-article-buffer (@ref{raw-article-buffer}). If not found,
function @code{mime-viewer/default-content-header-filter} is

tm-view does not display raw content body. For example, if a content
has binary, it is hidden. If a content has text/enriched, it is
@code{mime-viewer/default-showing-Content-Type-list}.@refill
When content-body of a content is displayed, content-body is formated by

@chapter Mechanism of decoding
+@cindex external method
+@cindex internal method
+@cindex method
+@cindex decoding-mode
+@cindex decoding operation(s) (for a part)
In @code{mime/viewer-mode}, you can do play (@kbd{v}), extract
(@kbd{e}), or print (@kbd{C-c C-p}) for each parts. These operations
-are called @cindex{decoding operation(s) (for a part)}@strong{decoding
-operation(s) (for a part)}. And kind of decoding operations are called
-@cindex{decoding-mode}@strong{decoding-mode}.@refill
+are called @strong{decoding operation(s) (for a part)}. And kind of
+decoding operations are called @strong{decoding-mode}.@refill
When decoding operation is driven, tm-view calls a procedure matched for
the condition, such as content-type (@ref{(tm-en)content-type}) of the
part or its environment. This procedure is called
-@cindex{method}@strong{method}.@refill
+@strong{method}.@refill
There are two kinds of methods. One is Emacs Lisp function, called
-@cindex{internal method}@strong{internal method}. Another one is
-external program, called @cindex{external method}@strong{external
-method}.@refill
+@strong{internal method}. Another one is external program, called
+@strong{external method}.@refill
Internal method operates in Emacs, so it can do carefully.@refill

@chapter raw-article-buffer and preview-buffer
+@cindex filter
+@cindex content-filter
+@cindex header-filter
+@cindex preview-buffer
+@cindex raw-article-buffer
tm-view managements two buffers, one is for raw message called
-@cindex{raw-article-buffer}@strong{raw-article-buffer}, another one is
-to preview for user called
-@cindex{preview-buffer}@strong{preview-buffer}. major-mode of
-raw-article-buffer is same as major-mode for article of original MUA,
-major-mode of preview-buffer is @code{mime/viewer-mode}
-(@ref{mime/viewer-mode}).@refill
+@strong{raw-article-buffer}, another one is to preview for user called
+@strong{preview-buffer}. major-mode of raw-article-buffer is same as
+major-mode for article of original MUA, major-mode of preview-buffer is
+@code{mime/viewer-mode} (@ref{mime/viewer-mode}).@refill
When called @code{mime/viewer-mode}, tm-view analyzes
raw-article-buffer, and sets its result to the variable
After that, tm-view create a preview-buffer corresponded to the
raw-article-buffer. As this time, tm-view modifies header and body of
each parts of the message by specified conditions. Filter program for
-header is called @cindex{header-filter}@strong{header-filter}
-(@ref{content-header}), filter program for body is called
-@cindex{content-filter}@strong{content-filter} (@ref{content-body}), and
-they are called @cindex{filter}@strong{filter}.@refill
+header is called @strong{header-filter} (@ref{content-header}), filter
+program for body is called @strong{content-filter} (@ref{content-body}),
+and they are called @strong{filter}.@refill
When preview-buffer is made, buffer local variable of preview-buffer
@code{mime::preview/content-list} is made to register structure of
@node raw-article-buffer, preview-buffer, Two buffers for an article, Two buffers for an article
@section buffer local variables of raw-article-buffer
+@cindex content-info
@deffn{Structure} mime::content-info rcnum point-min point-max type parameters encoding children
structure to represent MIME content in raw-article-buffer. It is called

Please use reference function @code{mime::content-info/SLOT-NAME} to

+of @file{tm-ew-d.el} and @file{mel-b.el}, and permission to rewrite for
+tm.@refill
+
+I thank OKABE Yasuo for work of internal method for LaTeX and automatic
