Re: [Nmh-workers] Conflict between "mime" command and attach

+1 to jon's proposal below. but this is probably enmh (even newer mail
handler), not nmh. because to support it we'll have to bite a
long-avoided architectural bullet and put all of the logic in a callable
library, of which the command line tools are wrappers around option
parsing and the libraries. programmatic users of the mail handler should
not have to call system("pick"), they should be calling enmh_pick().

I see Jon's proposal as a lot of UI changes that MIGHT involve changes to
the backend, but doesn't necessarily require it.  Although obviously
some of the MIME stuff needs to be in a library now (all of the MIME
parsing routines are actually in $(srcdir)/uip, which is kind of annoying
and it would need a lot of restructuring).
