Global key bindings
|

|
===================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Several features are accessible from anywhere in notmuch through the
|
||||||
|
following key bindings:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``j``
|
||||||
|
Jump to saved searches using :ref:`notmuch-jump`.
|
||||||
|
|

|
notmuch-jump
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Saved searches configured through :ref:`notmuch-saved-searches` can
|
||||||
|
include a "shortcut key" that's accessible through notmuch-jump.
|
||||||
|
Pressing ``j`` anywhere in notmuch followed by the configured shortcut
|
||||||
|
key of a saved search will immediately jump to that saved search. For
|
||||||
|
example, in the default configuration ``j i`` jumps immediately to the
|
||||||
|
inbox search. When you press ``j``, notmuch-jump shows the saved
|
||||||
|
searches and their shortcut keys in the mini-buffer.
