NAME
shownonascii - view mail message in a non-ASCII font
SYNOPSIS
shownonascii charset [-e command] filename ...
DESCRIPTION
The shownonascii program allows data in non-ASCII character
sets to be viewed under X11. By default, it opens up an xterm
using the font identified by charset in the first argument.
It then runs the more command to view all of the files named
on the command line using the specified font.
If the -e switch is used, the rest of the command line is
accepted as a command to pass to xterm to be used instead of
more.
If the MM_CHARSET environment variable is set and matches the
character set named in the first argument, charset, a new
xterm window is not opened.
If the MM_AUXCHARSETS environment variable is set, the
character set named in the first argument is recognized as a
subset of that string, and a new xterm window is not opened.
