Starting Pine
To fire up the Pine program, use the following command, and you'll see the Pine main menu screen:
% pine
|
PINE 4.10 MAIN MENU Folder: INBOX 3 Messages |
Typically, I press I to jump right into my INBOX, but Pine also offers several options: pressing C to send a message, L to see a list of my saved mail folders, or A to manage my address book. (We'll touch on those options later.)
If you want to bypass this opening screen, you can add the -i flag to your pine command and go directly to the INBOX screen.
For more information on the pine command, see the pine manual.
