Yes, this does look closer, however, I had to comment out my showproc
(which was currently set to mhshow).
I did some more experimentation and discovered that show already prints
the header (without using MessageName) for a multi message invocation,
e.g. show 1 2 3 will print the message number before each message, but
does not print the header for a single message invocation.
Also, if I include MessageName in my mhl.format, I get 2 headers when I
use a multi message show, even with -noheader:
>>> ML/nongnu/nmh-workers:1
(Message ML/nongnu/nmh-workers:1)
<headers>...
But with MessageName and -noheader, at least I get the header only once
when showing a single message.
$ grep show /home/amb/.mh_profile
show: -noheader
Thanks for remembering this option.
Someone else asked if anyone would notice a difference if mhshow
replaced show... well, at least in this regard, it certainly is
different. I bet the time that my multi message headers disappeared is
the time that I (for whatever reason) added mhshow as the showproc.
