I'd fought with mhshow-charset a little before suggesting the
mhshow-show change and couldn't get it to work that way either
(the best understanding I could get was that regardless of what
I had it do with the charset entry, the 'cat -v' undid that work
later anyway). But I didn't want to dismiss the chance that you
knew how to make it work.
Thanks for taking the time to fix this for the few of us who
still use nmh!
