ANNO(1)                       [mh.6]                      ANNO(1)


NAME
       anno - annotate messages

SYNOPSIS
       anno   [+folder]   [msgs]   [-component field]  [-inplace]
            [-noinplace] [-text body] [-help]

DESCRIPTION
       Anno annotates the specified messages in the named  folder
       using  the  field and body.  Annotation is optionally per-
       formed by dist, forw, and repl, to keep track of your dis-
       tribution of, forwarding of, and replies to a message.  By
       using anno, you can perform arbitrary annotations of  your
       own.   Each  message  selected  will be annotated with the
       lines

           field: date
           field: body

       The `-inplace' switch causes  annotation  to  be  done  in
       place in order to preserve links to the annotated message.

       The field specified should be a  valid  822-style  message
       field name, which means that it should consist of alphanu-
       merics (or dashes) only.  The body specified is  arbitrary
       text.

       If  a  `-component field'  is  not  specified when anno is
       invoked, anno will prompt the user for the name  of  field
       for the annotation.
