+<BODY>
+<H1>TOKEN: PROCID explained</H1>
+
+<P>
+The PROCID token is a way in which the user and the program can differentiate
+between different parts of a program. It allows the user to tell the
+program when to use a specific rule, and only use it at that specific
+moment.
+
+<P> The normal way in which this is done is by adding a new configuration 
+variable. The idea behind the PROCID token is that instead of adding a new 
+configuration variable (which means the user has to go through more 
+configuration variables just to tune the program to his liking), we reuse 
+an old variable and let the user look inside that variable for the desired
+behavior, which is actually set by setting the PROCID token.
+
+<P>
+Consider the following examples for forward-rules:
+
+<P>
+_ROLE_ == {work} =&gt; _SUBJECT_ := _COPY_{[tag] _SUBJECT_}
+
+<P>
+and
+
+<P>
+_ROLE_ == {work} =&gt; _LCC_ := _TRIM_{_FORWARDFROM_ &lt;_FORWARDADDRESS_&gt;}
+
+<P>
+both are triggered by the same condition. Since both are configured in the 
+same variable, only one of them will be executed all the time (whichever 
+is first). Therefore in order to differentiate, we add a _PROCID_ token. 
+So, for example, the first example above will be executed only when we are 
+determining the subject. In this case, the following rule will accomplish 
+this task
+
+<P>
+_PROCID_ == {fwd-subject} && _ROLE_ == {work} =&gt; _SUBJECT_ := _COPY_{[tag] _SUBJECT_}
+
+<P>
+In this case, this rule will be tested fully only when we are determining 
+the subject line of a forwarded message, not otherwise.
+
+<P>
+It is wise to add the _PROCID_ token as the first condition in a rule, so 
+that other conditions will not be tested in a long list of rules.

+<H1>Pretty Command Explained</H1>
+
+<P> This text explains how to encode keys so that they will be recognized 
+by Alpine in the _PKEY_ token. Most direct keystrokes are recognized in the 
+same way. For example, the key ~ is recognized by the same character. The 
+issue is how control, or functions keys are recognized. The internal code 
+is most times easy to find out. If the key you want to use is not already 
+recognized by Alpine simply press it. Alpine will print its code. For example, 
+the return key is not recognized in this screen, so if you press it, you 
+will see the following message.
+
+<P> [Command &quot;RETURN&quot; not defined for this screen. Use ? for help]
+
+<P> from here you can guess that the code for the return command is

+</HEAD>
+<BODY>
+<H1>OPTION: <!--#echo var="VAR_key-definition-rules"--></H1>
+
+<P> This option can be used to define macros, that is, to define a key that
+when pressed executes a group of predetermined keystrokes. Since Alpine is
+a menu driven program, sometimes the same key may have different meanings
+in different screens, so a global redefinition of a key although possible
+is not advisable. 
+
+<P> <B>Always use the _SCREEN_ token as defined below.</B>. You have been
+warned!
+
+<P> In each screen, every time you press a recognized key, a command is 
+activated. In order to understand this feature, think of commands instead 
+of keystrokes. For example, you can think of the sort by thread command. 
+This command is associated to the keystrokes $ and h. You may want to 
+associate this command to a specific keystroke, like ~, so every time you
+press the ~ key, Alpine understand the $ and h keystrokes, which activates
+the sort by thread command.
+
+<P> Therefore, in order to use this option you must think of three 
+components. The screen where you will use the macro, the keystroke you 
+want to use and the set of keystrokes used by Alpine to accomplish the task 
+you want to accomplish. We will talk about these three components in what 
+follows.
+
+<P> First you must decide in which screen the macro will be used. This 
+feature is currently only available for the screen where your messages
+are listed in index form (<A HREF="h_mail_index">MESSAGE INDEX</A>),
+the screen where your message is displayed
+(<A HREF="h_mail_view">MESSAGE TEXT</A>) and the screen where the list of
+folders is displayed (<A HREF="h_folder_maint">FOLDER LIST</A>). The 
+internal names of these screens for this patch are &quot;index&quot;, 
+&quot;text&quot; and 
+&quot;folder&quot; respectively. Please note that the internal names are 
+all in lowercase and are case sensitive.
+
+<P> In order to define the screen, you use the _SCREEN_ token, so for 
+example, you can write _SCREEN_ == {index}.
+
+<P> Second you must think of which key you will use to activate the macro. 
+Here you can use any key of your choice. The token you use to designate a 
+key is the _PKEY_ token (PKEY stands for &quot;pressed key&quot;). For 
+example you could use _PKEY_ == {~}, to designate the &quot;~&quot; 
+key to activate the command. Some keystrokes (like control, or 
+function keys) are encoded in special ways. You should read the 
+<A HREF="h_config_pretty_command">full explanation</A> on how to find
+out the encoding for each keystroke.
+
+<P> Last, you must think of the list of keys you will use to accomplish 
+the task you want Alpine to perform. Say for example you want to have the 
+folder sorted by thread. That means you want Aline to execute the keys 
+&quot;$&quot; and &quot;h&quot;. You use the _COMMAND_ function to specify 
+this. The syntax in this case is _COMMAND_{$,h}.
+
+<P> Observe that in the above example the different inputs are separated 
+by commas. This is the standard way in which the
+<A HREF="h_config_init_cmd_list"><!--#echo var="VAR_initial-keystroke-list"--></A> command works from 
+the command line. Due to restrictions in the way Alpine works, a comma is a 
+special character, which when added to a configuration option like this 
+will cause the configuration to split into several lines in the 
+configuration screen. This has the effect of producing several 
+configuration options, all of which are incorrect. This is undesirable 
+because what you want is to have it all in one line. In order to force the 
+configuration into one line you must quote the comma. The best way to 
+accomplish this is by quoting the full definition of the rule. For 
+example.
+
+<P>
+&quot;_SCREEN_ == {index} && _PKEY_ == {~} => _COMMAND_{$,h}&quot;
+
+<P> Another way to accomplish the same effect is by quoting the command and 
+not using quotes for the full command, nor commas to separate the 
+keystrokes in the command, for example
+
+<P>
+_SCREEN_ == {index} && _PKEY_ == {~} => _COMMAND_{&quot;$h&quot;}
+
+<P> For more information on how to define the argument of the _COMMAND_
+token see the help of 
+<A HREF="h_config_init_cmd_list"><!--#echo var="VAR_initial-keystroke-list"--></A>.
+
+<P> Because the $ command can also be used as the first character in the
+definition of an environemnt variable, no expansion of environment variables
+is done when parsing this variable. The $ character does not need quoting
+and quoting it will make Alpine fail to produce the correct result.
+
+<P> This configuration option is just one of many that allow you to 
+override the value of some global configurations within Alpine. There is a 
+help text explaining how to define all of them, which you can read by

+<BODY>
+<H1>OPTION: <!--#echo var="VAR_reply-subject-rules"--></H1>
+
+<P> This option is used to have Alpine generate a different subject when
+replying rather than the one Alpine would generate automatically. 
+
+<P> Here there are a couple of examples about how to use this
+configuration option:
+
+<P> In order to have messages with empty subject to be replied with the message
+"your message" use the rule<BR>
+<center>_SUBJECT_ == {} => _RESUB_{Re: your message}</center>
+
+<P> If you want to trim some parts of the subject when you reply use the
+rule<BR> 
+<center>_SUBJECT_ >> {[one];two} => _SUBJECT_ := _TRIM_{[;];two}</center> 
+
+<P>this rule removes the brackets "[" and "]" whenever the string "[one]"
+appears in it, it also removes the word "two" from it.
+
+<P>Another example where you may want to use this rule is when you 
+correspond with people that change the reply string from &quot;Re:&quot; 
+to &quot;AW:&quot; or &quot;Sv:&quot;. In this case a rule like<BR>
+<center>_SUBJECT_ >> {Sv: ;AW: } => _SUBJECT_ := _TRIM_{Sv: ;AW: }</center> 
+<P>
+would eliminate undesired strings in replies.
+
+<P> Another interesting use of this option is the use of the _EXEC_ function.
+This function takes as an argument a program or a script. This program
+must take as the input a file, and write its output to that file. For example,
+below is a sample of a script that removes the letter &quot;a&quot; of a file.
+
+<PRE>
+#!/bin/sh
+sed 's/a//g' $1 > /tmp/mytest
+mv /tmp/mytest $1
+</PRE>
+
+<P>
+As you can see this script took &quot;$1&quot; as input file, the sed program
+wrote its output to /tmp/mytest, and then the move program moved the file
+/tmp/mytest to the input file &quot;$1&quot;. This is the kind of behavior
+that your program is expected to have.
+
+<P>
+The content of the input file (&quot;$1&quot; above) is the value of a token
+like _SUBJECT_. In order to indicate this, we use the notation
+
+<P>
+_SUBJECT_ := _EXEC_{/path/to/script}
+
+<P> for the action. So for example
+
+<P>
+_FOLDER_ := {sent-mail} =&gt; _SUBJECT_ := _EXEC_{/path/to/script}
+
+<P> is a valid rule.
+
+<P> You can also use this configuration option to customize reply subjects
+according to the sender of the message.
+
+<P> This configuration option is just one of many that allow you to
+override the value of some global configurations within Alpine. There is a

+<TITLE>OPTION: New Rules Explained</TITLE>
+</HEAD>
+<BODY>
+<H1>OPTION: New Rules Explained</H1>
+
+This is a quite powerful option. Here you can define rules that override
+the values of any other option you have set in Alpine.
+
+<P>
+For example, you can set your folders to be sorted in a certain way when 
+you open them (say by Arrival). You may want, however, your newsgroups to 
+be sorted by thread. The set of &quot;rules&quot; options allows you to 
+configure this and many other options, including the index-format for 
+specific folders, the way the subject is displayed in the index screen or 
+the reply-leadin-string, to name a few.
+
+<P>
+Every rule has three parts: a condition, a separator and an action. The
+action is what will happen if the condition of the rule is satisfied.
+
+<P>
+  Here is an example:
+
+<P>
+   _FROM_ == {Fred Flintstone} =&gt; _SAVE_{Fred}
+
+<P>
+  Here the separator is "=&gt;". Whatever is to the left of the separator 
+is the condition (that is _FROM_ == {Fred Flintstone}) and to the right is 
+the action (_SAVE_{Fred}). The condition means that the rule will be 
+applied only if the message that you are reading is from &quot;Fred 
+Flintstone&quot;, and the action will be that you will be offered to save 
+it in the folder &quot;Fred&quot;, whenever you press the letter 
+&quot;S&quot; to save a message.
+
+<P>
+  The separator is always &quot;=&gt;&quot;, with one exception to be seen 
+later. But for the most part this will be the only one you will ever need.
+
+<P>
+  Now let us see how to do it. There are 13 functions already defined for 
+you. These are: _EXEC_, _INDEX_, _REPLACE_, _REPLY_, _RESUB_, _SAVE_, 
+_SIGNATURE_, _SORT_, _STARTUP_, _TRIM_, _REXTRIM_, _THREADSTYLE and 
+_THREADINDEX_. The parameter of a function has to be enclosed between 
+&quot;{&quot; and &quot;}&quot;, so for example you can specify 
+_SAVE_{saved-messages} as a valid sentence.
+
+<P>
+  Later in the document you will find examples. Here is a short 
+description of what each function does:
+
+<P>
+<UL>
+<LI> _EXEC_ : This function takes as an argument a program. This program 
+gets as the input a file and must rewrite its output to that file, which 
+is then taken as the value to replace from the contents of that file. You 
+can use this function with 
+<A HREF="h_config_resub_rules"><!--#echo var="VAR_reply-subject-rules"--></A>, 
+<A HREF="h_config_replace_rules"><!--#echo var="VAR_replace-rules"--></A> and 
+<A HREF="h_config_forward_rules"><!--#echo var="VAR_forward-rules"--></A>. 
+See the help of those options for examples of how to use this function
+and configure these rules.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _INDEX_ : This function takes as an argument an index-format, and
+makes that the index-format for the specified folder.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _REPLACE_ : This function replaces the subject/from of the given e-mail by
+another subject/from only when displaying the index.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _REPLY_ : This function takes as an argument a definition of a
+reply-leadin-string and makes this the reply-leading-string of the
+specified folder or person.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _RESTR_ : This function takes as an argument the value of the 
+reply-indent-string to be used to answer the message being replied to.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _RESUB_ : This function replaces the subject of the given e-mail by
+another subject only when replying to a message.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _SAVE_ : The save function takes as an argument the name of a
+possibly non existing folder, whenever you want to save a message, that
+folder will be offered for you to save.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _SIGNATURE_ : This function takes as an argument a signature file and
+uses that file as the signature for the message you are about to
+compose/reply/forward.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _SMTP_ : This function takes as an argument the definition of a
+SMTP server.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _SORT_ : This function takes as an argument a Sort Style, and sorts a
+specified folder in that sort order.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _TRIM_ : This function takes as an argument a list of strings that
+you want removed from another string. At this time this only works for
+_FROM_ and _SUBJECT_.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _REXTRIM_ : Same as _TRIM_ but its argument is one and
+only one extended regular expression.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _STARTUP_ : This function takes as an argument an
+incoming-startup-rule, and open an specified folder using that rule.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _THREADSTYLE_ : This function takes as an argument a
+threading-display-style and uses it to display threads in a folder.
+<BR>&nbsp;<BR>
+<LI> _THREADINDEX_ : This function takes as an argument a
+threading-index-style and uses it to display threads in a folder.
+</UL>
+
+<P>
+You must me wondering how to define the person/folder over who to apply
+the action. This is done in the condition. When you specify a rule, the
+rule is only executed if the condition is satisfied. In another words for
+the rule:
+
+<P>
+   _FROM_ == {Fred Flintstone} =&gt; _SAVE_{Fred}
+
+<P> it will only be applied if the from is &quot;Fred Flintstone&quot;. If 
+the From is &quot;Wilma Flintstone&quot; the rule will be skipped.
+
+<P> In order to test a condition you can use the following tokens (in 
+alphabetical order): _ADDRESS_, _CC_, _FOLDER_, _FROM_,_NICK_, _ROLE, 
+_SENDER_, _SUBJECT_ and _TO_. The token will always be tested against what 
+it is between &quot;{&quot; and &quot;}&quot; in the condition, this part 
+of the condition is called the &quot;condition set&quot;. The definition 
+of each token can be found <A HREF="h_index_tokens">here</A>. 
+
+<P> A special testing token called _PROCID_ can be used to differentiate 
+inside a rule, between two rules that are triggered by the same condition. 
+A full explanation of the _PROCID_ token can be found in 
+<A HREF="h_config_procid">this link</A>.
+
+<P> There are two more tokens related to the option
+<A HREF="h_config_key_macro_rules">key-definition-rules</A>. Those tokens
+are only specific to that option, and hence are not explained here.
+
+<P> You can also test in different ways, you can use the following 
+&quot;test operands&quot;: &lt;&lt;, !&lt;, &gt;&gt;, !&gt;, == and !=. 
+All of them are two characters long. Here is the meaning of them:
+
+<P>
+<UL> 
+<LI> &lt;&lt; : It tests if the value of the token is contained in
+the condition set. Here for example if the condition set were equal to
+&quot;Freddy&quot;, then the condition: _NICK_ &lt;&lt; {Freddy}, would be true if
+the value of _NICK_ were &quot;Fred&quot;, &quot;red&quot; or &quot;Freddy&quot;. You are just looking
+for substrings here.
+<LI> &gt;&gt; : It tests if the value of the token contains the value of
+the condition set. Here for example if the condittion set were equal to
+&quot;Fred&quot;, then the condition: _FROM_ &gt;&gt; {Fred}, would be true if
+the value of _FROM_ were &quot;Fred Flintstone&quot; or &quot;Fred P. Flintstone&quot; or &quot;Freddy&quot;.
+<LI> == : It tests if the value of the token is exactly equal to the value
+of the set condition. For example _NICK_ == {Fred} will be false if the value 
+of _NICK_ is &quot;Freddy&quot; or &quot;red&quot;. 
+<LI> !&lt; : This is true only when &lt;&lt; is false and vice versa.
+<LI> !&gt; : This is true only when &gt;&gt; is false and vice versa.
+<LI> != : This is true only when == is false and vice versa.
+</UL>
+
+<P>
+  Now let us say that you want the same action to be applied to more than
+one person or folder, say you want &quot;folder1&quot; and &quot;folder2&quot; to be sorted by
+Ordered Subject upon entering. Then you can list them all of them in the
+condition part separting them by a &quot;;&quot;. Here is the way to do it.
+
+<P>
+ _FOLDER_ &lt;&lt; {folder1; folder2} =&gt; _SORT_{OrderedSubj}
+
+<P>
+  Here is the first subtlety about these definitions. Notice that the
+following rule:
+
+<P>
+ _FOLDER_ == {folder1; folder2} =&gt; _SORT_{Reverse OrderedSubj}
+
+<P> works only for &quot;folder1&quot; but not for &quot;folder2&quot;. This is because the
+comparison of the name of the folder is done with whatever is in between
+&quot;{&quot;, &quot;;&quot; or &quot;}&quot;, so in the above rule you would be testing <BR>
+&quot;folder2&quot; == &quot; folder2&quot;. The extra space makes the difference. 
+The reason why the first rule does not fail is because 
+&quot;folder2&quot; &lt;&lt; &quot; folder2&quot; is actually
+true. If something ever fails this may be something to look into.
+
+<P>
+ Here are a few examples of what we have talked about before.
+
+<P>
+_NICK_ == {lisa;kika} =&gt; _SAVE_{_NICK_/_NICK_} <BR>
+This means that if the nick is lisa, it will 
+save the message in the folder &quot;lisa/lisa&quot;, and if the nick 
+is &quot;kika&quot;, it will save the message in the folder &quot;kika/kika&quot;
+
+<P>
+_FOLDER_ == {Lynx} -&gt; lynx <BR>
+This, is an abbreviation of the following rule:<BR>
+_FOLDER_ == {Lynx} =&gt; _SAVE_{lynx} <BR>
+(note the change in separator from &quot;=&gt;&quot; to &quot;-&gt;&quot;). In the future 
+I will use that abbreviation.
+
+<P> _FOLDER_ &lt;&lt; {comp.mail.pine; pine-info; pine-alpha} -&gt; pine <BR>
+Any message in the folders &quot;comp.mail.pine&quot;, &quot;pine-info&quot; or &quot;pine-alpha&quot;
+will be saved to the folder &quot;pine&quot;.
+
+<P> _FROM_ &lt;&lt; {Pine Master} -&gt; pine <BR>
+Any message whose From field contains
+&quot;Pine Master&quot; will be saved in the folder pine.
+
+<P> _FOLDER_ &lt;&lt; {Lynx; pine-info; comp.mail.pine} =&gt;
+_INDEX_{IMAPSTATUS MSGNO DATE FROMORTO(33%) SUBJECT(66%)} <BR> Use a
+different index-format for the folders &quot;Lynx&quot;, &quot;pine-info&quot; and
+&quot;comp.mail.pine&quot;, where the size is not present.
+
+<P> _FOLDER_ == {Lynx;pine-info} =&gt; _REPLY_{*** _FROM_ (_ADDRESS_)
+wrote in the _FOLDER_ list _SMARTDATE_(&quot;Today&quot; &quot;today&quot; &quot;on
+_LONGDATE_&quot;):}<BR> If a message is in one of the incoming folders &quot;Lynx&quot;
+or &quot;pine-info&quot;, create a reply-leadin-string that acknowledges that. Note
+the absence of &quot;,&quot; in the function _SMARTDATE_. For example answering to a
+message in the pine-info list would look like:
+
+<P>
+*** Steve Hubert (hubert@cac.washington.edu) wrote in the pine-info list today:
+
+<P>
+However replying for a message in the Lynx list would look:
+
+<P>
+*** mattack@area.com (mattack@area.com) wrote in the Lynx list today:
+
+<P>
+If you write in more than one language you can use this feature to create
+Reply-leadin-strings in different languages.
+
+<P> Note that at least for people you can create particular
+reply-leadin-string using the role features, but it does not work as this
+one does. This seems to be the right way to do it.
+
+<P> _FOLDER_ &lt;&lt; {Lynx; comp.mail.pine; pine_info; pine-alpha} =&gt;
+_SORT_{OrderedSubj}<BR> This means upon opening, sort the folders &quot;Lynx&quot;,
+&quot;comp.mail.pine&quot;, etc in ordered subject. All the others use the default
+sort order. You can not sort in reverse in this form. The possible
+arguments of this function are listed in the definition of the
+default-sort-rule (Arrival, scorE, siZe, etc).
+
+<P> The last examples use the function _TRIM_ which has a special form.
+This function can only be used in the index list.
+
+<P> _FOLDER_ &lt;&lt; {Lynx} =&gt; _SUBJECT_ := _TRIM_{lynx-dev }<BR> In
+the folder &quot;Lynx&quot; eliminate from the subject the string &quot;lynx-dev &quot; (with
+the space at the end). For example a message whose subject is &quot;Re:
+lynx-dev unvisited Visited Links&quot;, would be shown in the index with
+subject: &quot;Re: unvisited Visited Links&quot;, making the subject shorter and
+giving the same information.
+
+<P> _FROM_ &gt;&gt; {Name (Comment)} =&gt; _FROM_ :=
+_TRIM_{ (Comment)}<BR> Remove the part &quot; (Comment)&quot;
+from the _FROM_, so when displaying in the index the real From &quot;Name&quot;
+will appear.
+
+<P> _SUBJECT_ == {} =&gt; _RESUB_{Re: your mail without subject}
+If there is no subject in the message, use the subject &quot;Re: your mail
+wiyhout subject&quot; as a subject for the reply message.
+
+<P> You can add more complexity to your rules by checking more than one
+conditions before a rule is executed. More than one condition can be
+checked by separating different conditions by the && (and) separator,
+or using the || (or) separator. For example we could have a rule that
+saves all
+messages in inbox from Rubye, to the Personal folder, as
+
+<P> _FOLDER_ == {INBOX} && _FROM_ >> {Rubye} => _SAVE_{Personal}
+
+<P> We could also have a rule that is triggered by an &quot;or&quot; 
+condition by, sat for messages from Andres or messages in the index
+to trigger a specific reply leadin string.
+
+<P> _FOLDER_ == {INBOX} || _FROM_ >> {Andres} =&gt; _REPLY_{You wrote:}
+
+<P>Observe that the construction 
+
+<P> _TOKEN_ == {value1} || _TOKEN_ == {value2}
+
+<P>can be shortened to
+
+<P> _TOKEN_ == {value1;value2}
+
+<P> Round parentheses can be used to group some conditions, for example
+
+<P> (_FROM_ &gt;&gt; {Andres} && _FOLDER_ == {INBOX}) || _FROM_ &gt;&gt; {Rubye}
+
+
+<P> You can also list your index by nick, in the following way:<BR>
+_NICK_ != {} => _FROM_ := _REPLACE_{_NICK_}
+
+<P>
+  If you want to open the folder &quot;pine-info&quot; in the first non-read message
+use the rule:<BR>
+_FOLDER_ == {pine-info} => _STARTUP_{first-unseen}
+
+<P>
+ If you want to move your deleted messages to a folder, called &quot;Trash&quot;, use
+the following rule:<BR>
+_FLAG_ >> {D} -> Trash
+
+<P>
+The reason why the above test is not &quot;_FLAG_ == {D}&quot; is because that would mean
+that this is the only flag set in the message. It's better to test by containment in this case.
+
+<P> If you want to use a specific signature when you are in a specific collection
+use the following rule:<BR>
+_COLLECTION_ == {Mail} => _SIGNATURE_{/full/path/to/.signature}
+
+<P> Finally about the question of which rule will be executed. Only the
+first rule that matches will be executed. It is important to notice though
+that &quot;saving&quot; rules do not compete with &quot;sorting&quot; rules. So the first
+&quot;saving&quot; rule that matches will be executed in the case of saving and so
+on.
