ANNO(1) [nmh-1.0.4] (MH.6.8) ANNO(1)
NAME
anno - annotate messages
SYNOPSIS
anno [+folder] [msgs] [-component field] [-inplace]
[-noinplace] [-date] [-nodate] [-text body]
[-version] [-help]
DESCRIPTION
Anno annotates the specified messages in the named folder
using the field and body.
Usually, annotation is performed by the commands dist, forw,
and repl, if they are given the `-anno' switch. This allows
you to keep track of your distribution of, forwarding of,
and replies to a message.
By using anno, you can perform arbitrary annotations of your
own. Each message selected will be annotated with the lines
field: date
field: body
The `-nodate' switch inhibits the date annotation, leaving
only the body annotation.
If a `-component field' is not specified when anno is
invoked, anno will prompt the user for the name of field for
the annotation.
The field specified should be a valid 822-style message
field name, which means that it should consist of
alphanumerics (or dashes) only. The body specified is
arbitrary text.
Normally anno does the annotation inplace in order to
preserve any links to the message. You may change this by
using the `-noinplace' switch.
