Switching to the sent folder in Mutt

If you are in the Mutt email program and wish to switch to another folder, such as the one containing your sent email, you can hit the c key, which is shorthand for ChDir, which will provide the prompt Open mailbox ('?' for list):. You can type the name of the folder, e.g., sent to change the currently displayed folder. If you wish to go immediately to the sent folder when opening mutt you can use the -f option, i.e., mutt -f sent.

Starting the Windows Fax and Scan utility from a command line interface

If you wish to start the Windows Fax and Scan program, which allows you to fax or scan documents via a fax machine or scanner attached to a system running the Microsoft Windows operating system, from a command-line interface (CLI), you can do so by opening a command prompt window or a PowerShell window and typing the command wfs and then hitting Enter. There are a few command line parameters you can enter when staring the program from the command line. E.g., you can enter wfs /swtich fax to start the program with its faxing interface; wfs /switch scan is the alternative for starting with the scanning option. Without those, the application will start in the last used mode. For other possible arguments to the app, see Windows Fax And Scan Command Line Options?
