My minimal Mutt configuration files for iCloud Mail and Gmail. Both require two-factor authentication, and app-specific passwords be generated. Notes: <username> refers to the email address prefix. editor can be any editor you choose but should, of course, be Vim.

Note: Spaces in labels are represented by .

A little diversion: a Halloween countdown script written in PowerShell (and Rexx).

With the inclusion of paging for tagged-with-* files (revision 140), Hua is now feature complete. There's still work to do: for example, I want to simplify some of the code and I'm very interested in how well Hua performs with a large number of articles. But, for now, the tool does everything I want it to do while retaining the flexibility and simplicity I envisioned from the beginning.

Revision 99 of Hua supports paging. The number of entries appearing on the index page(s) is controlled using the entries_pp variable in the config file. Index file(s) are named using the index_file config variable, as before. Pages following the first are named *-2.html, *-3.html, etc.
I'm considering implementing this for the tagged-with files as well.
