The simple syntactic rules for such ;; headers, such as quoting and line folding, are routinely reimplemented ;; in many individual packages. This package removes the need for this ;; redundancy by representing message headers as association lists, ;; offering functions to extract the set of headers from a message, to ;; parse individual headers, to merge sets of headers, and to format a set ;; of headers. ;; The car of each element in the message-header alist is a symbol whose ;; print name is the name of the header, in all lower-case. The cdr of an ;; element depends on the operation. After extracting headers from a ;; message, it is a string, the value of the header. An extracted set of ;; headers may be parsed further, which may turn it into a list, whose car ;; is the original value and whose subsequent elements depend on the ;; header. For formatting, it is evaluated to obtain the strings to be ;; inserted. For merging, one set of headers consists of strings, while ;; the other set will be evaluated with the symbols in the first set of ;; headers bound to their respective values. ;;; Code: (eval-when-compile (require 'cl)) ;; Make the byte-compiler shut up.
