NAME

tnextmail - Trivial NeXT mail

SYNOPSIS

tnextmail [ -s subject ] to-addr ...

DESCRIPTION

tnextmail is a front end to the system mailer that allows sending files as NeXT attachments from non-NeXT computers. The text of the message is supplied on standard input, as in mail(1). Where tnextmail differs from mail is that there is a special control sequence \\attach{filename} that includes filename in the message at the point where the \\attach command appears.

BUGS

Attached filenames shouldn't contain braces in their names. There is still no automated way to read a NeXT format message on a dumb terminal.
