3342 | By default @command{mimeview} asks for comnfirmation before running | ||
3343 | interpreter to view a message. If this option is used without | ||
3344 | argument, it disables the default behavior for all message | ||
3345 | types. Otherwise, if argument @var{type-list} is given, it specifies | ||
3346 | a comma-separated list of MIME types for which no questions should be | ||
3347 | asked. Elements of this list may include shell-style globbing | ||
3348 | patterns, e.g. setting | ||

3358 | |||
3359 | Notice, that when the long form is used, its argument | ||
3360 | must be separated from the option by a single equal sign, as shown | ||
3361 | in the example above. When the short form (@option{-a}) is used, its argument | ||
3362 | must follow the option immediately, without any intervening whitespace, | ||
3363 | e.g. @option{-a'text/*'}). | ||

3403 | @itemx --print | ||
3404 | This options tells @command{mimeview} that it should run in | ||
3405 | non-interactive mode. In this mode prompting is disabled, and | ||
3406 | the normal mailcap @code{command} field is not executed. Instead | ||
3407 | @command{mimeview} will execute the command specified in | ||
3408 | the @code{print} field. If there is nothing in the print field, | ||
3409 | the mailcap entry is ignored and the search continues for a matching | ||
3410 | mailcap entry that does have a @code{print} field. | ||
3411 | |||
3412 | Notice, that unlike in @command{metamail -h}, this option does | ||
3413 | not force @command{mimeview} to send the output to the printer | ||
3414 | daemon. | ||
3415 | |||
3416 | When used with @option{--metamail} option, this option passes | ||
3417 | @option{-h} flag to the invocation of @command{metamail}. | ||
3418 | |||
3419 | By default @command{mimeview} behaves as if given | ||
3420 | @option{--no-interactive} option whenever its standard input is not | ||
3421 | a @asis{tty} device. | ||
