But to emphasize my desire (where I can contribute to) and something Carl was worried at that we'd lose capability to edit configuration file with an editor I think we sould have a way to export the configuration to easily editable file and then import it after modifications. Tomi PS: I've thought when I'm moving from Fluxbox/X11 to some wayland based environment -- and if that environment is Enlightenment, then I'll need a way to convert configuration files to text format (and back) and save those to git repository (as I'm currently doing w/ Fluxbox configs). Hopefully they (already) have way to do that, but if not then... But if anyone knows an alternative with decent amount of configurability I'd be interested to know... > // stuff deleted > > --dkg _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
