This is a Perl script that extracts URLs from correctly-encoded MIME
|
|
email messages or plain text. This can be used either as a
|
|
pre-parser for urlview, or to replace urlview entirely.
|
|
|
|
This is designed primarily for use with the mutt emailer. The idea
|
|
is that if you want to access a URL in an email, you pipe the email
|
|
to a URL extractor (like this one) which then lets you select a URL
|
|
to view in some third program (such as Firefox). An alternative
|
|
design is to access URLs from within mutt's pager by defining macros
|
|
and tagging the URLs in the display to indicate which macro to use.
|
|
A script you can use to do that is tagurl.pl.
|
|
|
|
Main features:
|
|
- Configurable
|
|
- Handles URLs that have been broken over several lines in
|
|
format=flowed delsp=yes email messages
|
|
- Handles quoted-printable email messages
|
|
- Sanitizes URLs so that they can't break out of the command shell
