Hi,

	I'm trying to set the /etc/mailcap so when I have an HTML
attachment, pine launches lynx.

	The only thing I've managed to get is to lauch lynx in the
background, without actually seeing anything and having to kill the
process.

	Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

	FYI: Linux 2.0.30, Pine 3.96

I am having essentially the same problem, except that I don't get any
process launched.  Pine tells me"VIEWER command launched" and just
sits.  My mailcap file is

text/html ; /usr/local/bin/lynx %s

I am using Solaris 2.5.1 and Pine3.96.

Jim,

> text/html ; /usr/local/bin/lynx %s
 
	As Fernando Tricas suggested me (on private e-mail), try the
following:

text/html; lynx -force_html %s; needsterminal

	It works on my system!

    I use Pine 3.96 under SunOS 4.1.4.  The folling .mailcap entry
works just fine for me:

# Handle text files in HTML format:
text/html; lynx -force_html %s; needsterminal

(lynx is in my $PATH, so I don't need to specify a path in the entry.)

    Go into your personal configuration and read the online help for
"index-format".

I have not had a desire to change the default viewing in Pine, but in the
Configuration, you may want to check out the Sort Key and check _Subject_
or _Subject_Ordered_. Don't know if it will work, but if that is what you
want, it might be worth  a shot. If it doesn't work the way you want, you
can always set it back to the way it was.

	Hummmm.....I believe the original question was along the lines of
how to affect the "index" display and reorder the information on a line.
Like yourself, I've not tried this one....but I would check out the:

index-format=

	feature....after reading the "help" of course.  :-) :-)
