Maxin john 806e0aba2e contrib/thunderbird-patch-inline: do not require bash to run the script
The script does not have to be run under bash, but any POSIX compliant
shell would do, as it does not use any bash-isms.

It may be written under a different style than what is recommended in
Documentation/CodingGuidelines, but that is a different matter.

While at it, fix obvious typos in the comment.

README

appp.sh is a script that is supposed to be used together with ExternalEditor
for Mozilla Thunderbird. It will let you include patches inline in e-mails
in an easy way.

Usage:
- Generate the patch with git format-patch.
- Start writing a new e-mail in Thunderbird.
- Press the external editor button (or Ctrl-E) to run appp.sh
- Select the previously generated patch file.
- Finish editing the e-mail.

Any text that is entered into the message editor before appp.sh is called
will be moved to the section between the --- and the diffstat.

All S-O-B:s and Cc:s in the patch will be added to the CC list.

To set it up, just install External Editor and tell it to use appp.sh as the
editor.

Zenity is a required dependency.
