MHPARAM(1)					       MHPARAM(1)

NAME
       mhparam - print nmh profile components

SYNOPSIS
       mhparam [components] [-all] [-component] [-nocomponent]
	    [-version] [-help]

DESCRIPTION
       Mhparam	writes	the value of the specified profile compo-
       nent to the standard output separated by newlines.  If the
       profile	component  is  not present, the default value (or
       nothing if there is no default) is printed.

       If the switch `-component' is given,  then  the	component
       name is displayed along with the profile components value.
       This can be disabled with the switch `-nocomponent'.

       If more than one component is  specified	 in  the  `compo-
       nents'  list,  then  the	 switch	 `-component'  is  on  by
       default.	 If only one component	is  specified,	then  the
       switch `-nocomponent' is on by default.

       If  `-all'  is  specified,  then all components in the nmh
       profile are displayed and other arguments are ignored.

       Examples:

	    % mhparam path
	    Mail

	    % mhparam mhlproc
	    /usr/contrib/mh/lib/mhl

	    % mhparam -component path
	    Path: Mail

	    % mhparam AliasFile rmmproc
	    AliasFile: aliases
	    rmmproc: rmmproc

	    % mhparam -nocomponent AliasFile rmmproc
	    aliases
	    rmmproc

       Mhparam is also useful in back-quoted operations:

	    % fgrep cornell.edu `mhpath +`/`mhparam aliasfile`
