mboxShell v0.9.0

mboxShell v0.9.0

What's new

• Feature: export takes --dirname dts|seq-no|seq-no0 and --seq-width N, like attachments (#39), with the same [export] config defaults. Under seq-no/seq-no0, each EML, TXT and HTML file is named after its message's attachment folder (0007.html goes with 0007/); dts, the default, keeps the usual names. TXT and HTML exports also print that folder under the attachment list.
• Fix: in a mailbox that starts with a UTF-8 BOM, the first message was exported wrong (#38): its .eml/Maildir file kept the From line as a header and lost its subject, and export --format mbox wrote a duplicate separator.

Fast terminal viewer for MBOX files of any size.
