I have a home-grown perl-based de-digestifier using elm.
To use it, just pipe a message containing a digest to the
'elmdigest' command. You will find yourself in an elm
session on a temporary file with each message split into
a separate entity. The temporary file is deleted when you
exit.
I will accept requests for copies. -David-

I didn't think there was a standard way that digests used to separate component articles. -- Rob Bernardo Mt.

That is true, and the dedigestifier fails in some cases. If users will document failure modes, (i.e. forward the problematic digests to me), I will try to accomodate them with special-case improvements to elmdigest. I am including the elmdigest program below. It requires perl to be installed. To use it, just type: |elmdigest from the elm menu prompt. You will find yourself in an elm session on a temporary folder containing individual messages from the digest. The folder will bes deleted when you exit elmdigest. -David- david@wubios.wustl.edu ^ Mr. David J.
