Hi,
This is what my .mailcap looks like:
===========================================
text/html; lynx -dump %s; copiousoutput; nametemplate=3D%s.html
Application/MSWORD; cygstart %s; copiousoutput;
Application/VND.MS-EXCEL; cygstart %s; copiousoutput;
Application/PDF; cygstart %s; copiousoutput;
Application/vnd.ms-powerpoint; cygstart %s; copiousoutput;
Application/MSEXCEL; cygstart %s; copiousoutput;
Application/octet-stream; cygstart %s; copiousoutput;
===========================================
I'm using mutt 1.4i. When I try to view a word doc it lauches fine but in the middle
of doing other things like reading email or doing something else my word doc seems
to get corrupted.
However I don't see this problem if I save the file and *then* run cygstart or directly
open it in word.
BTW here is where the tmp file is created:
[asimha at asimha-w2k02 ~]$ ls -lt /tmp
ls: /tmp/mutt-asimha-w2k02-1736-194: No such file or directory
ls: /tmp/mutt-asimha-w2k02-1736-33: No such file or directory
total 4550

[asimha at asimha-w2k02 ~]$
Any clues here?
Thanks,
