MH Library Directory

[table of contents] [index]
The library directory (in the
Figure Important parts of a UNIX filesystem,
/usr/local/lib/mh) is usually separate from the MH binaries directory.
Again, the location is system-dependent -- but the pathname usually has
mh and lib someplace in it.
The directory has text files like scan.size and scan.timely,
standard template files for draft messages such as
components,
and a few special executable programs like mhl.
You can save the location of the MH library directory in your MH profile by
using a handy trick
with the mhparam command.
Then, whenever you need the library directory pathname, use mhparam
in backquotes:
% cp `mhparam library`/replcomps . ...copy system replcomps file
% cd `mhparam library` ...now run commands in library directory...
