NAME
       shownonascii - View all or part of a mail message in a non-ASCII font

SYNOPSIS
       shownonascii  charset-font-name [-e command-to-execute] file-name(s)

DESCRIPTION
       The shownonascii program allows data in non-ASCII character sets to be
       viewed under X11.    By default, it will open up an xterm using the
       font named in the first argument, running the "more" command to view
       all of the files named on the command line.

       If the -e switch is used, the rest of the command line will be taken as
       the command to tell xterm to run instead of more.

       If the MM_CHARSET environment variable is set and matches the character
       set named in the first argument, a new xterm window will not be opened.

       If the MM_AUXCHARSETS environment variable is set the character set
       named in the first argument is a subset of that string, a new xterm
       window will not be opened.
