Description: Extract and browse the URLs contained in an email (urlview replacement)
urlscan searches for URLs in email messages, then displays a list of
them in the current terminal. It is primarily meant as a replacement
for urlview, which it improves upon in the following ways:
.
* urlscan understands email encodings such as quoted-printable;
urlview does not.
* urlscan extracts and displays the context surrounding each URL.
