This directory contains contributed software that is useful with mh-e.


* CONTENTS

** mh-alias.el

This packages makes [TAB] do completion in minibuffer To: and CC:
prompts on mail aliases (and optionally local usernames) and will
substitute these aliases in the MH-letter buffer.  You may enter
multiple addressees by separating them with a comma, which (by default)
will flash the alias translation of the previous address.

This package also makes [C-c C-f TAB] and Meta-[TAB] (aka M-\t) do
completion in the letter header itself.  The Meta-[TAB] feature is
useful when you want to add an addressee as an afterthought while
editing a letter, or add an addresse to a reply.

** mh-frame.el

Visit (or, if necessary, open) a frame called "MH-E" for mh-rmail,
rescan folder and show current message.  On mh-quit from +inbox in
MH-E frame, delete that frame, and if there's a pid argument
argument, kill the proc with that pid.

** multi-prompt.el

This package is written for use in emacs lisp programs, where the
user is prompted for a string of the form:

  FOO,BAR,BAZ

where FOO, BAR, and BAZ are elements of some table.  The function
`multi-prompt' is a replacement `completing-read' that will allow
the user to enter a string like the above, yet get completion on
both FOO, BAR, and BAZ.
