Hi belg4mit,

(As an aside, I really dislike grep and friends no longer coping
well under ~/mail because of base 64 encoding, etc.)

I usually use scan `pick -search` for that sort of functionality, but
if that's not to your liking you might look at hacking on transparent
base64 decoding to  http://search.cpan.org/~petdance/ack-1.94/

Sorry, I wasn't clear.  It's not just grep but the full gamut of Unix
text processing that I want to use.  To that end, I have wondered if it
would be nice to have, e.g. a copy of the headers one-per-line even if
it's then not RFC-compliant.  Yes, you can cope with a header being
split across many lines, but it gets in the way of the main task.

Cheers,
Ralph.
