Michal has recently been following up with pieces of this that > are directly justified, (like "notmuch cat"). Thanks! Thanks for these updates. I have two more that I submitted - the 'G' keybinding that calls an external poll program: this allows you to run notmuch new from within emacs at times that are convenient for the user; otherwise a user either needs to manually run this from outside emacs, or notmuch new is run through cron or offlineimap and in that case we get the weird Xapian database access errors in the discussion of the patch there was concern that this stalls emacs for potentially a long time - I find that acceptable as email is imported - other people may find differently (and decide not to use this feature) id:[email protected] - the 'd' keybinding that deletes mail/threads (similar to 'a'rchive) id:[email protected] Additionally, I'd really love to see the address completion to be included in notmuch (at least the emacs part of it - I think there's still some debate whether the vala sources would cause too much of a build dependency to be integrated. I don't think this was ever submitted to the mailing list as a patch.
