slrn is actively developed (again). It now supports utf-8. For this ebuild I modified the existing one. Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 146355 [details] slrn-9999.ebuild
Created attachment 146357 [details, diff] minimal-multipart_0.9.9-87.patch This patch adds minimal mine support to slrn. The patch is taken from http://www.foory.de/thw/slrn/
Created attachment 146359 [details, diff] us-ascii_override_0.9.9-87.patch This patch will allow slrn to override the charset value "us-ascii" declared in postings with the value of the fallback charset. This might be useful to handle google postings I sometimes ran across, which claimed to be "us-ascii" but had 8 bit characters inside. This can be done by adding | set usascii_override 1 to the .slrnrc. This patch is also taken from http://www.foory.de/thw/slrn/
Created attachment 146361 [details] slrnrd.vim the optional vim syntax file, also taken from http://www.foory.de/thw/slrn/
Some more info's on the minimal-mime patch: From http://www.foory.de/thw/slrn/ This adds minimal multipart support to slrn. Text type parts are displayed correctly binary and other unsupported parts are hidden. Don't expect it to read html postings or to save binary attachments, it just helps to ease the pain when reading pgp/mime signed postings or postings created by pine. You can disable this patch by adding | set minimal_multipart 0 to the slrnrc. Thanks to Christian Ebert. He helped a lot to debug this patch, thus you could call it now quite stable. If you like to have real mime-support I suggest you try out his python based slrnmime extensions
Upstream SVN seems untouched in a couple of years, so there's no point adding this. (In any case, we do prefer to avoid live ebuilds in the main tree where possible.)
