[Nmh-workers] selecting text over html

[Paul Fox]

hi --

is there a way to get nmh to to display the text version of
a message in favor of an html version?  i realize that the mime
standard (rfc?) says that the richest format should be used, but
in an xterm, text _is_ the richest format.  :-)

currently i deal with this by simply disabling display of html
content, by commenting out the "mhshow-show-text/html" entry in
mhn.defaults.  but this breaks when a message comes _only_ in
html format -- then i have to burst the message and fire up lynx,
or somesuch.

is there any mhshow magic that would give me middle-ground i'm looking
for?
