- NAME
- munpack - unpack messages in MIME or split-uuencode format
-
- SYNOPSIS
- munpack [ -f ] [ -q ] [ -t ] [ -C _✓d_✓i_✓r_✓e_✓c_✓t_✓o_✓r_✓y ] [ _✓f_✓i_✓l_✓e_✓n_✓a_✓m_✓e ...
- ]
-
- DESCRIPTION
- The _✓m_✓u_✓n_✓p_✓a_✓c_✓k program reads each RFC-822 message _✓f_✓i_✓l_✓e_✓n_✓a_✓m_✓e and
- writes all non-text MIME parts or split-uuencoded files as
- files. If no filename argument is given, munpack reads from
- standard input.
-
- If the message suggests a file name to use for the imbedded
- part, that name is cleaned of potential problem characters
- and used for the output file. If the suggested filename
- includes subdirectories, they will be created as necessary.
- If the message does not suggest a file name, the names
- "part01", "part02", etc are used in sequence.
-
- If the imbedded part was preceded with textual information,
- that information is also written to a file. The file is
- named the same as the imbedded part, with any filename
- extension replaced with ".desc".
-
- OPTIONS
- -f Force overwriting of existing files. If a message sug-
- gests a file name of an existing file, the file will be
- overwritten. Without this flag, munpack appends ".1",
- ".2", etc to find a nonexistent file.
-
- -q Be quiet. Supresses messages about saving partial mes-
- sages and about messages with no interesting informa-
- tion.
-
- -t Also write the text MIME parts of multipart messages as
- files. This option effectively disables the ".desc"
- file feature for MIME messages.
-
- -C _✓d_✓i_✓r_✓e_✓c_✓t_✓o_✓r_✓y
- Change the current directory to _✓d_✓i_✓r_✓e_✓c_✓t_✓o_✓r_✓y before read-
- ing any files. This is useful when invoking munpack
- from a mail or news reader.
