29 ;; mail, news, and some other systems. The simple syntactic rules for such |
15512 | 30 ;; headers, such as quoting and line folding, are routinely reimplemented |
31 ;; in many individual packages. This package removes the need for this | |
32 ;; redundancy by representing message headers as association lists, | |
33 ;; offering functions to extract the set of headers from a message, to | |
34 ;; parse individual headers, to merge sets of headers, and to format a set | |
35 ;; of headers. | |
36 | |
37 ;; The car of each element in the message-header alist is a symbol whose | |
38 ;; print name is the name of the header, in all lower-case. The cdr of an | |
39 ;; element depends on the operation. After extracting headers from a | |
33413 | 40 ;; message, it is a string, the value of the header. An extracted set of |
15512 | 41 ;; headers may be parsed further, which may turn it into a list, whose car |
42 ;; is the original value and whose subsequent elements depend on the | |
43 ;; header. For formatting, it is evaluated to obtain the strings to be | |
44 ;; inserted. For merging, one set of headers consists of strings, while | |
45 ;; the other set will be evaluated with the symbols in the first set of | |
46 ;; headers bound to their respective values. | |
