Format of nima templates
======================================================================
This document shows the format in which nima saves its templates.
You can use this file to create External Modules (EMs) for nima
by making a program that changes saved templates.  You can read
about EMs below.

External Modules (EMs)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
nima uses templates as a link between itself and EMs.  The EMs will
allow you to change the way nima functions without having to edit
nima itself.  What EMs do is load a saved template (or create a new
one) and change it, then save it to the proper nima template format.
It's that simple.  Anybody can write EMs for nima.  If you do write
one, send it to me at rfosnot@gzinc.com or ICQ it to me at 590389.
You DO NOT need my approval to release the EM, but send it to me
anyway.  If I like it, I'll link to it from my nima website and give
you full credit for it.  Don't be discouraged if someone has already
written the EM that you wanted to write, the more the merrier.


  Some ideas for EMs that would be useful:
    -> An EM that checks the recipients' Email addresses to make sure
       they exist (finger)
    -> An EM that checks the server(s) and/or relay(s) that will be
       used to send the mail.
    -> An EM that spell-checks, grammar-checks, and/or syntax-checks
       the headers, addresses, servers, subject, and/or the message.
    -> A wizard that simplifies data entry and saves the entries into
       the proper template format.
    -> An EM that encrypts the message with PGP and inserts the proper
       headers into the message.
    -> An EM that inserts fake 'Received:' headers into the message for
       added anonymity.
    -> Anything else.
