Script for mime encoding

Hi,

I was peeved by this mime stuff and hacked some SLang code to remove it.
http://www.minet.uni-jena.de/~joergs/jmime.sl If someone is interested in
it, try it. Put this code in a SLang file that is evaluated by slrn.

() = evalfile("jmime.sl");
define read_article_hook()
{
    conv_mime();

    !if ( strncmp(current_newsgroup(), "linux.", 6) )
      fix_subject();
}

I've never read a RFC about this mime stuff. The implementation is as I
gathered the informations from examples.

Some additionals:
* There's a function check_sig() that runs gpg to verify a PGP signed
  mail.

* And it should be really easy to implement a function that saves only
  parts of the mime container, e.g. attachments.

But I've some problems:
* How can I trigger a reprocession of the article by slrn? Can I make
  slrn updates the message after I changed the Content-Type?

* Can I access the iconv functions from SLang?

Bye, Jörg.
