Stuff for the Sup e-mail reader

If you use Sup for reading e-mail (as I do) you may find the stuff in this page useful. All the material is available as is: consider those files in the public domain.

Launcher script

I use a script to launch Sup. The script assumes that:

The Sup source code (e.g. a checkout of the Git repository) is present at ~/bin/sup.git
You are using a recent incarnation of the GNOME desktop environment. Seahorse's seahorse-agent is used as GnuPG passphrase agent.
Backups of of ~/.sup are to be saved in ~/.sup.backup

The script drop up to ten tarballs (at most one per day) of the Sup indexes and configuration (the files contained in ~/.sup), and older tarballs will be automatically removed. Backup files are nice just in case something goes wrong: remember that I am using development versions of the program.

Hooks

extra-contact-addresses.rb: Extracts addresses from abook or the LBDB and adds them to the Sup address list. Keep in mind that this hook is run only at startup, so you will need to restart Sup if you modify your address books.
mime-decode.rb: Uses the Elinks text-mode web browser to dump a text-only representation of HTML messages. Very handy to read messages from unfriendly people which uses webmails and/or Microshaft products.
