Mark based composer

To support PGP/MIME, mark based composing is provided. Remember the previous example.

----------------------------- attachments -----------------------------
      Multipart/Mixed                                         1/
     1  Text/Plain(guess)                                       CoverPage*
B    2  Image/Gif                    MagicPoint logo            mgp.gif
Q    3  Application/Postscript       Presentation Material      ohp.ps
     4                                                          .

You can find the `B' mark and the `Q' mark at the beginning of line. Mew provides you with a new concept of "encoding". Encoding includes Base64, Quoted-Printable, Gzip64(Gzip + Base64), sign with PGP, encrypt with PGP.

Currently 6 marks are prepared.

`" "'
No encoding. But 8bit text would be encoded.
`B'
Base64
`Q'
Quoted-Printable
`G'
Gzip64(compressed with gzip then encoded with Base64. This is experimental. Don't use this if receivers don't use Mew.)
`PS'
Sign with PGP
`PE'
Encrypt with PGP

Additional key binding for marks in attachments is as follows:

`B'
Put the `B' mark to encode with Base64.
`Q'
Put the `Q' mark to encode with Quoted-Printable.
`G'
Put the `G' mark to encode with Gzip64. This is applicable only to Text/Plain and Application/Postscript since compression is not effective other objects. For example, JPEG is already compressed.
`S'
Put the `PS' mark to sign with PGP.
`E'
Put the `PE' mark to encrypt with PGP. Input decryptors' addresses.
`U'
Unmark. The original mark appears.

Consider the following example. The second part will be signed with PGP then encrypted with PGP for "kazu". Take it easy! It's description is overwritten but saved. The third part will be encoded with Gzip64.

     4                                                          .

After putting marks, type `C-cC-m' to create PGP/MIME and then press `C-cC-c' to send it.
