It also understands many non-standard formats, such as those produced by TOPS-20 sites and some UNIX sites using It is useful for seeing how MH will interpret a date. The program treats each argument as a single date, and prints the date out in the official RFC 822 format. Hence, it is usually best to enclose each argument in double quotes (") for the shell. Options -form file Overrides the default output format of The output is formatted according to the instructions in the specified file. This must be a format file; see -format string Overrides the default output format of The output is formatted according to the instructions in the specified string. This must be a format string; see The argument to the -format option must be interpreted as a single token by the shell that invokes Therefore, you should usually place the argument to this option inside double quotes ("). -help Prints a list of the valid options to this command. -width columns Specifies the width of the screen in columns. The defaults for this command are as follows: -width defaults to the width of the terminal Examples This is the default format string used by %<(nodate{text})error: %{text}%|%(pretty{text})%> When an error is detected, this prints error: and the date that is in error.
