This directory tree contains some example scripts. Feel free to copy them to the appropriate subdirectories under ~/.claws-mail/python-scripts and adjust them to your needs. Unless otherwise noted in the respective files, all example snippets are in the public domain. Table of contents: ================== * auto/startup An example startup script. It demonstrates how to modify the menu of Claws Mail's main window by adding a menu item under the Help menu to generate and browse the API documentation of the plugin. It also adds a menu item to mark a whole thread as read in the Edit menu. Furthermore, it shows how to build a D-Bus bridge to Claws Mail that other processes can use to trigger Claws Mail events. Also see auto/shutdown for cleanup. * auto/shutdown Demonstrates how to clean up the stuff that has been introduced in the auto/startup example. * main/Print-action-names-to-stdout Prints the names of all actions that are currently in the action group of Claws Mail's main window to standard output * main/Recursively-mark-messages-as-read Demonstrates how to perform actions to a directory tree under the currently selected folder in the main window. * main/Mass-mail Demonstrates how to automate composing of mails, and sending them out * main/Create-Tomboy-Note Create a Tomboy note for each selected message, containing the subject as note title and a Claws Mail link in the body which links back to Claws Mail (requires the Claws Mail addin for Tomboy). Optionally, the user can choose to add a marker string for the Tomboy Reminder addin into the note. To achieve this, this example demonstrates how to talk to other programs via D-Bus, as well as how to query additional information from the user using direct GTK+ programming. * main/Open-Tomboy-Notes This example opens all Tomboy notes which link to any of the currently selected messages, and thus completes the round trip from the "Create-Tomboy-Note" example. * compose/Macro-Expansion Demonstrates how to do text expansion in the compose window mail body editor
