26.SH DESCRIPTION
27\fIAnno\fR annotates the specified messages in the named folder using
28the field and body.
29
30Usually, annotation is performed by the commands \fIdist\fR, \fIforw\fR,
31and \fIrepl\fR, if they are given the `\-anno' switch.  This allows you
32to keep track of your distribution of, forwarding of, and replies to
33a message.
34
35By using \fIanno\fR, you can perform arbitrary annotations of your own.
36Each message selected will be annotated with the lines
37
38    field:\ date
39    field:\ body
40
41The `\-nodate' switch inhibits the date annotation, leaving only the
42body annotation.
43
44If a `\-component\ field' is not specified when \fIanno\fR is invoked,
45\fIanno\fR will prompt the user for the name of field for the annotation.
46
47The field specified should be a valid 822-style message field name,
48which means that it should consist of alphanumerics (or dashes) only.
49The body specified is arbitrary text.
50
51Normally \fIanno\fR does the annotation inplace in order to preserve
52any links to the message.  You may change this by using the `\-noinplace'
53switch.
