\
Enclosed is a copy of my latest revision to the “nextmail” script, a cool command-line utility that will allow you to send NeXT Mail from any relatively standard UNIX system.  For example, if you regularly login to a remote system (such as NetCom or FTP sites), you can put this script in your path and send yourself file attachments.  No more dealing with encoding and decoding.\
\
The script is easy to use.  Put it in /usr/local/bin or anywhere else in your path.  Once installed in your path, you can do things like this:\
\
    nextmail  "Set of pictures"  zac,tammy,norman  *.tiff  /LocalLibrary/Pictures\
\
Everything arrives as a NeXT Mail attachment with the filename next to it.  Here's the script:\
\

{{\attachment709 nextmail
}

\
Improvements since the last time I sent this out:  You can now put spaces in the subject line, and specify multiple recipients with either spaces or commas.  When uses spaces within a subject or recipient list, quotes must be used around them.  Also, multiple attachments are now supported.\
\
Now for a brief message from our sponsor:  This script is derived from logic in the DSNeXTMailer class, an object in Dolphin Kit.  For more information on the Kit, send a note to <[e-mail]>.\

\i Hopefully this isn't too far off the beaten track of the lists I've posted to; if it is, I apologize.
