lain/maildir.md

<- widgets

Shows maildirs status in a textbox.

Maildirs are structured as follows:

~/Mail
.
|-- arch
|   |-- cur
|   |-- new
|   `-- tmp
|-- gmail
|   |-- cur
|   |-- new
|   `-- tmp
.
.
.

therefore the widget checks whether there are files in the new directories. If there's new mails, the textbox will say something like "mail: bugs(3), system(1)", otherwise it says "no mail".

mymaildir = lain.widgets.maildir("/path/to/my/maildir")

input table

Variable	Meaning	Type	Default
timeout	Refresh timeout seconds	int	60
mailpath	Path to your maildir	string	"~/Mail"
settings	User settings	function	empty function

settings can use the string newmail, which format will be something like defined above, or "no mail".

output

A textbox.
