Okay, thanks.  I suggest adding this command to the "Message"
menu, and also to the documentation somewhere (unless already
there).

The MIME composition thing will change quite a bit in the future, C-c
C-a was just a stopgap solution.

What makes you say a thing like that?

MIME composition thing is finished, as far as I know.  There might be
further additions to MML, but they will likely be of little
consequence to the casual user.

`C-c C-a' is no "stopgap solution" -- it's a nice way to attach a
file.

Lars, have I missed something?

The menu has the "Attach file as MIME" in there...

I'm not so sure.  :-)  I kinda like `C-c C-a'.  If one wants to do
something more complex, one can just write MML.

Well, we originally had grander plans, but then I remembered that I
liked languages better than application, so we went with MML.  :-)

Hm.  WIBNI there were a few commands which helped on enter part tags?
Then, one would not have to remember whether it was `description' or
`comment' and which attributes are allowed for which tags.

Have you seen C-c C-a in psgml mode?  I just *love* that one.  If you
could do something like that, I'd be a happy camper 8-)

Then again, others might feel differently.  Whaddaya think?

Oh, wow.  Well, I wouldn't use something like that, but it looks quite
impressive.

Well, you already do widgets (customizing group parameters, for
instance), so maybe you could tack on something like that -- would be
even more pointily-clickety than the psgml thing...

Another thing psgml mode does which is nice is C-c + (adds an
attribute to the current element).

C-c C-a foo.tar.gz RET

sending MIME attachments with Pterodactyl

[lewst]

I'm using Pterodactyl v0.70 and XEmacs 20.4.  Viewing
MIME attachments is straightforward, as you just have
to click on their links in the message.  But I can't
figure out how to do MIME attachments when I'm sending
mail messages.  What would I type if I say wanted to
MIME attach a foo.tar.gz file in a mail message?
