DESCRIPTION

edbrowse is a combination of editor, browser, and mail client text based. You can specify several mail accounts and indicate one by its index following the email options.

The options are as follows:

-v: print version
-h: print help
-c: without argument edit the default configuration file. If the first argument is -c filename , edbrowse uses it as config file
-e: exit when it encounters an error, usually used by batch scripts
-m: with no other arguments, interactive mail reader
m[#]: specify an email account index [#]
-f: fetch mail from all accounts, except the ones that you have marked nofetch.
-f[#]: specify an index [#] to fetch mail from a single account. For instance, -f1 will fetch mail from the first mail account
-fm: retrieve and read email (combine the -f and -m options)
-pm -pfm: like -f and -fm options but pass over the filters

The debug options:

-d0: silent
-d1: show the sizes of files and web pages as they are read and written
-d2: show the url as you call up a web page and http redirection
-d3: javascript execution and errors: cookies, http codes, form data, and sql statements logged
-d4: show the socket connections, http headers in and out, html syntax errors as per tidy5, tree of nodes internal to edbrowse, side effects of running javascript and dynamic node linkage
