Mail::Cap - Parse mailcap files
=head1 SYNOPSIS
my $mc = new Mail::Cap;
$desc = $mc->description('image/gif');
print "GIF desc: $desc\n";
$cmd = $mc->viewCmd('text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1', 'file.txt');
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Parse mailcap files as specified in "RFC 1524 --A User Agent
Configuration Mechanism For Multimedia Mail Format Information>. In
the description below C<$type> refers to the MIME type as specified in
the C<Content-Type> header of mail or HTTP messages. Examples of
types are:
image/gif
text/html
text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
You could also take a look at the File::MimeInfo distribution, which
are accessing tables which are used by many applications on a system,
and therefore have succeeded the mail-cap specifications on modern
(UNIX) systems.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 Constructors
=over 4
=item Mail::Cap-E<gt>B<new>(OPTIONS)
Create and initialize a new Mail::Cap object. If you give it an
argument it will try to parse the specified file. Without any
arguments it will search for the mailcap file using the standard
mailcap path, or the MAILCAPS environment variable if it is defined.
-Option --Default
filename undef
take 'FIRST'
=over 2
=item filename => FILENAME
Add the specified file to the list to standard locations. This file
is tried first.
=item take => 'ALL'|'FIRST'
Include all mailcap files you can find. By default, only the first
file is parsed, however the RFC tells us to include ALL. To maintain
backwards compatibility, the default only takes the FIRST.
=back
example:
$mcap = new Mail::Cap;
$mcap = new Mail::Cap "/mydir/mailcap";
$mcap = new Mail::Cap filename => "/mydir/mailcap";
$mcap = new Mail::Cap take => 'ALL';
$mcap = Mail::Cap->new(take => 'ALL');
=back
=head2 Run commands
These methods invoke a suitable progam presenting or manipulating the
media object in the specified file. They all return C<1> if a command
was found, and C<0> otherwise. You might test C<$?> for the outcome
of the command.

=item $obj-E<gt>B<compose>(TYPE, FILE)
=item $obj-E<gt>B<edit>(TYPE, FILE)
=item $obj-E<gt>B<print>(TYPE, FILE)
=item $obj-E<gt>B<view>(TYPE, FILE)
=back
=head2 Command creator
These methods return a string that is suitable for feeding to system()
in order to invoke a suitable progam presenting or manipulating the
media object in the specified file. It will return C<undef> if no
suitable specification exists.

=item $obj-E<gt>B<composeCmd>(TYPE, FILE)
=item $obj-E<gt>B<editCmd>(TYPE, FILE)
=item $obj-E<gt>B<printCmd>(TYPE, FILE)
=item $obj-E<gt>B<viewCmd>(TYPE, FILE)
=back
=head2 Look-up definitions
Methods return the corresponding mailcap field for the type.
=over 4
=item $obj-E<gt>B<description>(TYPE)
=item $obj-E<gt>B<field>(TYPE, FIELD)
Returns the specified field for the type. Returns undef if no
specification exsists.
