Subject: Sending plain text file attachment

Is there any way from unix to send a mail message with a file attachment
from the command prompt?  The mail command can send a file as an email, but
I need the file to be an attachment not the message.  Pine can send an
attachment but it has to be input from compose (or does it?).

Yes, Pine needs ^X to send, unless you pick up and apply Eduardo's patch.

I think there's another program that can do the same thing, but I can't
remember what it's called for sure.  I'm pretty sure it has MIME in its
name, though.

Use mpack.  It will MIME encode a file and send it, optionally with a message.
