Folks,
After checking man evolution and evolution help I come grovelling:
Is there a command-line argument that will get evolution to bring up a
fresh email composer window with a file automatically attached? In
scanning the patch site for Sylpheed (sorry), I noticed someone had
designed a PERL script to run from within Open Office that gets the
"File=>Send as email" function to work with something other than
Netscape. Since the script's author suggests altering line 29 to reflect
a user's path to Sylpheed, seemed to me it wouldn't be much of a stretch
to alter the path to evolution instead. Sylpheed takes an --attach
option. Does evolution have something similar?
Best regards,
Pete Spotts
