- I've been working on a MIME object for the NeXT. My use for it is to
- have MIME type files in the NeXT gopher client. However, I've also used it
- to make a MIME file editor and it could be used for a mail app.
- My version looks essentially like a NeXTmail body - allows fonts, imbedded
- images, etc. I need to do some more work, but I will be releasing it
- in source form, so someone could write a mail app using it.
- I also recently got funding from Apple to port this to the Mac, so I'll
- have a Gopher client for the Mac that's capable of reading MIME type files
- as well. The guy helping me write this may do a mail app for the Mac if
- he has time. This probably won't be available in source tho.
