packf
packf(1mh) packf(1mh) Name packf - compress a folder into a single file Syntax packf [ +folder ] [ msgs ] [ -file name ] [ -help ] Description Each message in a folder is normally stored as a separate file. The command takes all messages from the current folder and copies them to a single specified file. Each message in the file is separated by four <CTRL/A>s and a newline. You can specify a folder other than the current folder by using the +folder argument. If you do not want all the messages in a folder to be packed into one file, you can specify a number of messages or a range of messages with message numbers. The first message packed will become the current message. If you specify a +folder argument, that folder will become the current folder. When messages have been packed into a file using you can separate them into individual messages using the command. See Options -file name Specifies the file in which you want the message(s) to be stored. If you specify an existing file then the specified messages will be appended to the end of that file. Otherwise, a new file will be created and the messages placed in it. If you do not specify a filename, attempts to place the messages in a file called in the current working directory. If this file does not exist, asks whether you want to create it. -help Prints a list of the valid options to this command. The default settings for this command are: +folder defaults to the current folder msgs defaults to all -file ./msgbox Examples The first example shows all the messages in the folder being packed into a file called % packf +lrp -file planning The next example shows how prompts you if you do not specify a -file option. A file called is created by in your home directory, and mes- sages 3 to 5 are packed into it: % packf +lrp 3-5 Create file "/machine/disk/username/msgbox"? y Profile Components Path: To determine the user's Mail directory Msg-Protect: To set protections when creating a new file Files $HOME/.mh_profile The user profile.
