IDEA: multipart/mixed support for scribo
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
I am writing this post from my phone, somewhere in the Reunion islands.
This place is beautiful, majestic ! I crossed mountains one day, dove
in corals the next day, eating delicious food and meeting even more
delicious people.
I've been away from a computer for the last 2 weeks, and as such didn't
work or played with anything technical I could share on this phlog.
However, I still did some stuff worth sharing, because this island is
so beautiful.
Unfortunately, my phlogging « engine », scribo(1), which converts
emails to phlog entries only accept text/plain mimetypes. I figured
this would be sufficient, given that gopher is a text-oriented
protocol. However, I realize here that I would like to share more than
just plain text. At least pictures. So I think the next improvement to
scribo would be supporting images/* mimetypes, first as an entry of
their own, using the subject as a legend, and then support for, maybe,
multipart/mixed, so I could send text with images, and reference them.
I'll have to read about the RFC a bit to know how that works, but that
could definitely be a great improvement. At least it would fill the gap
I'm missing today...
In the mean time, I'll upload some pics manually from my phone (thanks
sailfishos that I can use rsync(1) natively!), so I can share them here.
