FMTDUMP(8)                                                           [nmh-1.5]                                                          FMTDUMP(8)

NAME

       fmtdump - decode nmh format files

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/mh/fmtdump [-form formatfile] [-format string] [-version] [-help]

DESCRIPTION

       Fmtdump  is  a  program  that parses an nmh format file and produces a pseudo-language listing of the how nmh interprets the file.  This is
       useful when debugging a complicated format file.

       The -format string and -form formatfile switches may be used to specify a format string or format file to read.  The  string  is  simply  a
       format string and the file is simply a format file.  See mh-format(5) for the details.

FILES

       $HOME/.mh_profile          The user profile
       /etc/nmh/scan.default      The default format file

PROFILE COMPONENTS

       Path:                To determine the user's nmh directory

SEE ALSO

       mh-format(5), mh-sequences(8)

CONTEXT

       None

BUGS

       The output may not be useful unless you are familiar with the internals of the mh-format subroutines.
