<H1><a name="appendixA">Appendix: Utility Programs</a></H1>

<P>This appendix describes the additional utility programs that
are included in the MHonArc distribution.  The utility programs
are installed with <b>mhonarc</b> during the installation process.
</P>

<P><b>mha-dbedit</b> allows modifications to be made to an archive
database without regenerating any archive pages.
</P>

<p>Typical usage:
</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b>mha-dbedit -rcfile <var>res.mrc</var> -outdir <var>/path/to/archive</var></b>
</pre>

<hr>
<H2><a name="mha-dbrecover">mha-dbrecover</a></H2>

<P><b>mha-dbrecover</b> recreates an archive database from the individual
message pages.  This program is useful if an archive database gets
corrupted, or accidentally deleted.
</P>

<p>Typical usage:
</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b>mha-dbrecover -outdir <var>/path/to/archive</var></b>
</pre>

<p>If the archive used different resource settings from the defaults
for controling filenames, then you must specify those settings when
invoking <b>mha-dbrecover</b>.  For example, if you are using
"<tt>shtml</tt>" for <a href="resources/htmlext.html">HTMLEXT</a>,
then you should invoke <b>mha-dbrecover</b> like the following:
</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b>mha-dbrecover -htmlext shtml -outdir <var>/path/to/archive</var></b>
</pre>

<p><b>mha-dbrecover</b> will only recreate non-layout message related data.
If the archive had resource settings that were different than the
the defaults, then those resource settings must be specified when
invoking <b>mha-dbrecover</b>.  For example:
</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b>mha-dbrecover -rcfile <var>res.mrc</var> -outdir <var>/path/to/archive</var></b>
</pre>

<hr>
<H2><a name="mha-decode">mha-decode</a></H2>

<P><b>mha-decode</b> is a utility program unrelated to MHonArc archives.
<b>mha-decode</b> provides basic MIME decoding capabilites for
messages.
</P>
<p>If given mail folders as input, all messages within in the mail
folders will be decoded.  All message parts are written to files.  If a
filename is specified for a message part, that filename will be used
when writing the part to a file.  If no filename is specified in the
message, a unique name will be used based upon the content-type of
the message part.
</p>
<p>A single message can be decoded by using the <tt>-single</tt> option.
</p>

Only MHonArc options that affect parsing of mail folders are applicable
for <b>mha-decode</b>.  The following options are applicable:
<tt>-conlen</tt>,
<tt>-mhpattern</tt>,
<tt>-msgsep</tt>,
<tt>-noconlen</tt>,
<tt>-outdir</tt>,
<tt>-perlinc</tt>,
<tt>-rcfile</tt>,
<tt>-single</tt>,
<tt>-umask</tt>.

<p>Example usage:
</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b>mha-decode inbox</b>
</pre>
<p>Use <tt>-outdir</tt> to have all decoded data placed into a
separate directory:
</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b>mha-decode -outdir <var>/var/tmp</var> inbox</b>
</pre>
<p>And to decode a single message:</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b>mha-decode -single <var>msg.822</var></b>
</pre>
<p>or from standard input:</p>
<pre>
    shell&gt; <b><var>some_program</var> | mha-decode -single</b>
</pre>
