+#!/bin/bash
+#
+# Author:  Eric Gebhart
+#
+# Purpose:  To be called by mutt as indicated by .mailcap to handle mail attachments.
+#
+# Function: Copy the given file to a temporary directory so mutt
+#           Won't delete it before it is read by the application.
+#
+#           Along the way, discern the file type or use the type
+#           That is given.
+#
+#           Finally use 'open' or 'open -a' if the third argument is
+#           given.
+#
+#
+# Arguments:
+#
+#     $1 is the file
+#     $2 is the type - for those times when file magic isn't enough.
+#                      I frequently get html mail that has no extension
+#                      and file can't figure out what it is.
+#
+#                      Set to '-' if you don't want the type to be discerned.
+#                      Many applications can sniff out the type on their own.
+#                      And they do a better job of it too.
+#
+#                      Open Office and MS Office for example.
+#
+#     $3 is open with.  as in open -a 'open with this .app' foo.xls
+#
+# Examples:  These are typical .mailcap entries which use this program.
