[comp.mail.mh] Using shell scripts to manipulate bboards

abrams@COMMUNITY-CHEST.MITRE.ORG (07/05/88)

I have developed a set of shell scripts invoking MH to process my mail.
I have found them very useful and have become dependent upon them.  I
am now starting to use bbc and find that these are not available -- or
at least I don't know how to get at the  I take it that bbc runs msh.
Is there any alternative?  Can aliases or scripts be used in msh?

Any hints would be gratefully received.

Sincerely,

P.S.  My most useful command is the single letter p, which causes the
message to be printed. It includes imagen options to format it the way
I like it.  I'll be happy to share these scripts with anyone
interested.
