Basics  
---------

   These two programs and the ARexx scripts to envoke them allow you to 
   rewrap badly formatted mail, change headers, do minor final editing of
   mail, insert MUI control codes, and convert quoted-printable formatted
   mail to 8bit plain text. 

   Though these were written with Marcel Beck's YAM in mind, they should
   work fine with any mailer that stores its mail in individual files.

   Note that YTCreformat works quite well with ANY text file.

Requirements  
---------------

   Nothing additional required (except MUI, of course).

Quick Start
-----------

   Copy the programs, their icons, and the *.rexx files into the Yam:rexx
   directory. If you put them somewhere else, you'll need to edit the rexx
   script variable for each program location.

   Add the scripts to the YAM rexx menu or place them on an URB button. 
   Select a mail in YAM and run the rexx script.

   If you don't know about URB, look on Aminet:

      URB.lha  util/misc Ubiquitous Resource Bars v1.0

   The Arexx scripts are not necessary if you run these from URB, CLI, or 
   similar launcher.

Future
------
   
   As I see more of Yam2.0, I'll rewrite other portions of the original
   YamTools in C and include them in updates. I'm also always looking 
   for ideas, so feel free to write me if you have any suggestions.
