=head1 NAME

mutt-fetchbug - 'bts show' frontend for Mutt

=head1 SYNOPSIS

=over

=item B<mutt-fetchbug> [I<OPTION>]... search [I<SEARCH-TERM>]...

=back

=head1 DESCRIPTION

mutt-fetchbug is a frontend to the 'bts show' command (Debian package:
devscripts) designed to fetch bugs and place them in a predefined mbox. The
search term should typically be a bug number.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 4

=item -o DIR

=item --output-mbox DIR

Store search results as (symlink) mbox MBOX. Beware: MBOX will be overwritten.
(Default: F<~/.cache/mutt_btsresults/>)

=item -p

=item --prompt

Instead of using command line search terms, prompt the user for them (only for
"search").

=item -h

=item --help

Show usage information and exit.

=back

=head1 INTEGRATION WITH MUTT

mutt-fetchbug can be used to integrate 'bts show' with the Mutt mail user agent
(unsurprisingly, given the name). To that end, you should define the following
macros in your F<~/.muttrc> (replacing F<~/bin/mutt-fetchbug> for the actual
location of mutt-fetchbug on your system):

    macro index <F7> \
        "<enter-command>unset wait_key<enter><shell-escape>~/bin/mutt-fetchbug --prompt search<enter><change-folder-readonly>~/.cache/mutt_btsresults<enter><enter-command>set wait_key<enter>" \
        "fetch bug(s) (using bts show)"

The macro (activated by <F7>) will prompt the user for a bug number and then
jump to a temporary mbox showing the fetched bug.
