Recently i had wanted to use a text editor to speed up answering emails and considered Mutt and Emacs. I had used Thunderbird for sometime and liked the app but editing emails takes too long. Setting up Mutt was ok but still involved quite a bit of work.
Yesterday i came across a Thunderbird addon Muttador (still beta stage
- vi editor) and today came across a non-mozilla TB addon called
Exteditor... just what i've wanted and didn't think it existed! http://globs.org/articles.php?lng=en&pg=2
Some v.kind person has developed an external editor addon instead of the TB editor. It allows emacs, vi, joe, gedit or whatever to compose emails.
Should be of interest to anyone who wants to increase their productivity and say goodbye to the mouse while editing emails.
It sounds a bit like Mozex (for Firefox) but for Thunderbird, what a useful add-on.
