Hi David,
Alternatively, something like this (completely untested)?
msgs=`inc -format '%(msg)'` && [ -n "$msgs" ] && mhfixmsg $msgs
but then i'd lose the default output of inc.
msgs=`inc -format '%(msg)'` && [ -n "$msgs" ] && scan $msgs && mhfixmsg
$msgs
Still a bit of a kludge? inc updates *all* sequences in
unseen-sequence, so Paul could add one just for this task which he
zeroes before inc so it contains just the inc'd ones.
yes, that would be better.
there's another wrinkle, as well: mhfixmsg leaves cur set to the last
message processed, which means cur is no longer what it was when inc
was finished. so cur needs to be saved and restored, as well.

Though I wonder if inc could really do with an orthogonal -sequence that
it sets to precisely what it just created, i.e. it zeroes it beforehand.
Cheers, Ralph.
