Quote non-text parts nicely by displaying them with mm-display-part
before calling message-cite-original to quote them. HTML-only emails
can now be quoted correctly. We re-use some code from notmuch-show
(notmuch-show-mm-display-part-inline), which has been moved to
notmuch-lib.el.
Mark the test for this feature as not broken.
The main change here is to modify argument parsing so as to not force
tag-changes to be a list, and to let notmuch-tag handle prompting the
user when required. doc strings are also updated and cleaned up.
Tagging functions are used in notmuch.el, notmuch-show.el, and
notmuch-message.el. There are enough common functions for tagging
that it makes sense to put them all in their own library.
No code is modified, just moved around.
When using the spacebar to scroll through a thread, hitting 'space'
when the bottom of the last message is visible should take the cursor
to the end of the buffer rather than immediately archiving the thread
and moving to the next thread.
Currently emacs show does not open matching but excluded
messages. This is normally the desired behaviour but is probably not
ideal if only excluded messages match. This patch opens all the
matching (necessarily excluded) messages in this case and goes to the
first one.
A previous patch [0] replaced blank subject lines with '[No Subject]'
in search and show mode. Apparently this was needed to circumvent
some bug in the printing code, but there was no need for it search or
show, and it is definitely not desirable, so we undo it here (a revert
is no longer feasible). We should not be modifying strings in the
original message without good reason, or without a clear indication
that we are doing so, neither of which apply in this case. For
further discussion see [0].

Show has to set --exclude=false to deal with cases where it is asked
to show a single excluded message. It uses JSON so it can easily pass
the exclude information to the user.
This adds a lib function to turn a message ID into a properly escaped
message ID query and uses this function wherever we previously
hand-constructed ID queries. Wherever this new function is used,
documentation has been clarified to refer to "id: queries" instead of
"message IDs".
This fixes the broken test introduced by the previous patch.
Use the new JSON reply format to create replies in emacs. Quote HTML
parts nicely by using mm-display-part to turn them into displayable
text, then quoting them with message-cite-original. This is very
useful for users who regularly receive HTML-only email.
Use message-mode's message-cite-original function to create the
quoted body for reply messages. In order to make this act like the
existing notmuch defaults, you will need to set the following in
your emacs configuration:
message-citation-line-format "On %a, %d %b %Y, %f wrote:"
message-citation-line-function 'message-insert-formatted-citation-line
The tests have been updated to reflect the (ugly) emacs default.
Show mode will recognize the exclude flag by not opening excluding
messages by default, and will start at the first matching non-excluded
message. If there are no matching non-excluded messages it will go to
the first matching (necessarily excluded) message.
It is not clear whether the term "thread" refers to the thread in the
database or to the thread currently shown in a buffer. Those two
meanings may refer to different sets of messages, e.g. when a new email
is added to the database while the buffer shows the state before the new
email arrived.
This patch replaces the term thread with the term current buffer, which
is hopefully less ambiguous.
The behavior of the header line in show-mode changed from showing the
subject of the first open message to showing the subject of the first
message in 4d77f18b. Update a comment to reflect this.
Consensus seems to be that people prefer that refreshing show buffers
retains state by default, rather than resetting it by default. This
turns out to be the case in the code, as well. In fact, there's even
a test for this that's been marked broken for several months, which
this patch finally gets to mark as fixed.
If we retain state while refreshing a show buffer, it should not mark
any messages read since it's not a navigation operation (it especially
shouldn't mark the first message matching the query read, which is
what it did previously). If the user or caller requests that refresh
reset the state of the buffer, then we consider that a navigation
operation, so we do mark the message under point after the refresh
read.
This is implemented by moving responsibility for initial positioning
and read-marking out of notmuch-show-worker and into its caller.
Since notmuch-show-worker is now exclusively about building the show
buffer, we rename it to notmuch-show-build-buffer.

Code by David Edmondson <dme@dme.org>
The notmuch-show view refresh function (`notmuch-show-refresh-view',
bound to "=") accepts an optional RETAIN-STATE argument. The patch
allows to set this argument interactively by using "C-u =".
Recent changes in notmuch-show tagging introduced some code
duplication. The patch cleanups and simplifies
`notmuch-show-archive-thread' function by using
`notmuch-show-tag-all', no longer used function are removed. After
the change, `notmuch-show-archive-thread' function becomes symmetric
with `notmuch-show-archive-message'.
A side effect of these changes is that `notmuch-show-archive-thread'
no longer calls "notmuch tag" for each message in the thread.
With an argument, record and reply the state of the buffer during
`notmuch-show-refresh-view'.
In this context, "state" is defined as:
- the open/closed state of each message,
- the current message.
Traditional use of refresh with the = key does not retain the
state. The recently introduced toggle commands ($, !, < and >) do
retain the state.
Very deeply indented content is sometimes difficult to
read (particular for something like patches). Allow the indentation of
the content to be toggled with '<'.
Indentation of the header lines is not affected, so it remains
possible to see the structure of the thread.
The current behaviour (all messages shown, non-matching collapsed)
is retained as the default. Type '!' to switch to showing only
the matching messages - non-matching messages are not available.
'!' will switch back to showing everything.
Re-work the existing crypto switch toggle to be based on a persistant
buffer-local variable.
To allow this, modify `notmuch-show-refresh-view' to erase and re-draw
in the current buffer rather than killing the current buffer and
creating a new one. (This will also allow more per-buffer behaviour in
future patches.)
Add a binding ('$') to toggle crypto processing of the current buffer
and remove the prefix argument approach that achieves a similar
result.
Modify the show view key bindings as follows to make them more
consistent:
'a' = Archive current message, then move to next message, or show next
thread from search if at the last message in thread.
'A' = Archive each message in thread, then show next thread from
search.
'x' = Archive current message, then move to next message, or exit back
to search results if at the last message in thread.
'X' = Archive each message in thread, then exit back to search
results.
The changes make the key bindings more consistent in two ways:
1) 'a'/'A' both advance to the next thread like 'a' used to.
2) 'x' operates on messages and 'X' on threads like 'a'/'A'.
The patch adds `notmuch-show-tag-all' function bound to "*" in
notmuch-show view. The function is similar to the
`notmuch-search-tag-all' function for the notmuch-search view: it
changes tags for all messages in the current thread.
Before the change, "+" and "-" tagging operations in notmuch-show view
accepted only a single tag. The patch makes them use the recently
added `notmuch-read-tag-changes' function, which allows to enter
multiple tags with "+" and "-" prefixes. So after the change, "+" and
"-" bindings in notmuch-show view allow to both add and remove
multiple tags. The only difference between "+" and "-" is the
minibuffer initial input ("+" and "-" respectively).
The blank line doesn't really change position, but is now considered
to be part of the body rather than part of the headers. This means
that it is visible when the body is visible rather than when the
headers are visible.
This changes the default key bindings for the 'a' key in notmuch-show
mode. Instead of archiving the entire thread, it now just archives
the current message, and then advance to the next open message
(archive-message-then-next). 'A' is now bound to the previous
archive-thread-then-next function.
This will allow for keybindings that achieve a smoother message
processing flow by reducing the number of key presses needed for most
common operations.
This adds two new message archiving functions that parallel the thread
archiving functions: notmuch-show-archive-message{,-then-next}. The
former also takes a prefix argument to unarchive the message (ie. put
back in inbox).
This function is now just for archiving the current thread. A new
function is created to archive-then-next. The 'a' key binding is
updated accordingly.
This will allow people to bind to the simple thread archiving function
without the extra navigation. The archive-thread function now also
takes a prefix to unarchive the current thread (ie. put the whole
thread back in the inbox).
Break up notmuch-show-archive-thread-internal into two new functions:
notmuch-show-tag-thread-internal: applies a tag to all messages in
thread. If option remove flag is t, tags will be removed instead of
added.
notmuch-show-next-thread: moves to the next thread in the search
result. If given a prefix, will show the next result, otherwise will
just move to it in the search view.
Two new interactive functions, notmuch-show-{add,remove}-tag-thread,
are also added. Together, these provide a better suit of thread
tagging and navigation tools.
The higher level thread archiving functions are modified to use these
new function.
`mail-header-parse-address' expects un-decoded mailbox parts, which is
not what we have at this point. Replace it with simple string
deconstruction.
Mark the corresponding test as no longer broken.
Minor whitespace cleanup.
The `mm-inlinable-p' function works better if it has access to the
data of the relevant part, so load that content before calling it.
Don't load the content for parts that the user has indicated no desire
to inline.
This fixes the display of attached image/jpeg parts, for example.
Define a keymap for attachment buttons to allow multiple actions.
Define 3 possible actions:
save attachment: exactly as currently,
view attachment: uses mailcap entry,
view attachment with user chosen program
Keymap on a button is: s for save, v for view and o for view with
other program. Default (i.e. enter or mouse button) is save but this
is configurable in notmuch customize.
One implementation detail: the view attachment function forces all
attachments to be "displayed" using mailcap even if emacs could
display them itself. Thus, for example, text/html appears in a browser
and text/plain asks whether to save (on a standard debian setup)
Add various functions to print notmuch messages and tie them together
with a simple frontend.
Add a binding ('#') in `notmuch-show-mode' to print the current

one trailing space removed by db.
Enable the truncation of lines in `notmuch-show-mode' to avoid visual
noise caused by the wrapping of the header lines.
Don't enable `visual-line-mode' because it disables line truncation.
The benefits of `visual-line-mode' were that it wrapped long lines
in received messages. With `notmuch-wash-wrap-long-lines' now default
behaviour, this is no longer required.
To allow for expansion whilst keeping everything tidy and organized,
move all defcustom/defface variables to the following subgroups,
defined in notmuch-lib.el:
- Hello
- Search
- Show
- Send
- Crypto
- Hooks
- External Commands
- Appearance
As an added benefit, defcustom keyword args are now consistently
ordered as they appear @ defcustom's docstring (OCD much?).

Since message-ids necessarily match just a single message, there's no
reason to do a search for the id before viewing the actual message;
the search just becomes an extra screen to click through. Clicking on
an id: links now just jumps straight to the message itself.
Text properties change between characters; prev-s-c-property-change
returns the position after the change. Thus, it is still inside the
invisible region.
Commit cb841878 introduced new parts handlers for crypto parts, but also
hardcoded values for their headers face. This replaces these hardcoded values
with a customizable face.
Before the change, there was a workaround to avoid notmuch show calls
for parts with application/* Content-Type. But non-inlinable parts
are not limited to this Content-Type (e.g. mp3 files have audio/mpeg
Content-Type and are not inlinable). For such parts
`notmuch-show-insert-part-*/*' handler is called which unconditionally
fetches contents for all parts.
The patch moves content fetching from `notmuch-show-insert-part-*/*'
to `notmuch-show-mm-display-part-inline' function after MIME inlinable
checks are done to avoid useless notmuch show calls. The
application/* hack is no longer needed and removed.
Add optional props argument to `notmuch-show-get-header'. Use it to
get headers in `notmuch-show-insert-part-multipart/signed' and
`notmuch-show-insert-part-multipart/encrypted'.
Till now Emacs UI indents messages according to their respecive
depth of neting in the thread. The actual width of indentation
per level is hardcoded to `1' space.
This patch makes message indentation customisable by introducing
a variable `notmuch-indent-messages-width' which defaults to `1',
which is the same as before. Felix could set this variable to
`0' in order to disable indentation, I tested it with a value of
`4' for a clearer separation of messages in a thread.
There's no reason to record undo information for read-only,
programmatically-constructed buffers. The undo list just chews up
memory keeping track of our calls to insert.
This patch breaks out much of the functionality of
notmuch-show-advance-and-archive into a new function:
notmuch-show-advance. This new function does all the advancing
through a show buffer that notmuch-show-advance-and-archive did,
without all the invasive thread archiving. The return value of
notmuch-show-advance is nil if the bottom of the thread is not
reached, and t if it is.
notmuch-show-advance-and-archive is modified to just call
notmuch-show-advance, and then call notmuch-show-archive-thread if the
return value is true. In this way the previous functionality of
notmuch-show-advance-and-archive is preserved.
This provides a way for people to rebind the space bar to a more sane
function if they don't like the default behavior.
The main reason to introduce this new unexposed function is to allow
the buffer redisplay crypto switch to behaving in a more expected way.
The prefix to notmuch-show-redisplay buffer now switches the crypto
processing of the current show buffer, as opposed to switching the
logic of the notmuch-crypto-process-mime customization variable. This
behavior is more intuitive.
Add function `notmuch-show-stash-message-id-stripped'
which stashes a Message-ID after ripping off the prefix and quotes,
add bind it to "I" key in `notmuch-show-stash-map'.
Simplifying `notmuch-show-get-message-id' instead might seem better,
but that would require concat'ing in 9 places instead of 1.

Use `previous-single-char-property-change' instead of going
through each character by hand and testing it's visibility. This
fixes `notmuch-show-advance-and-archive' to work for the last
message in thread with hidden signature.
This function, like the equivalent for notmuch-search, just refreshes
the current show view. Like in notmuch-search, this new function is
bound to "=". If a prefix is given then the redisplay happens with the
crypto-switch set, which displays the thread with the opposite logic
of whatever is set in the notmuch-crypto-process-mime customization
variable.
The insert-part-message/rfc822 function is overhauled to properly
processes the new formatting of message/rfc822 parts. The json output
for message parts now includes "headers" and "body" fields, which are
now parsed and output appropriately.
The feature to show subject changes in the collapsed thread view was
originally added (8ab433607) with an option
(notmuch-show-always-show-subject) to display the subject
for all messages, even when there was no change.
The subsequent commit (4f04d273) changed the sense of the test (or to
and) and the name of the controlling variable
(notmuch-show-elide-same-subject).
But this commit is broken in a few ways:
1. The original definition of notmuch-show-always-show-subject was
left around
But the variable isn't actually used in the code at all, so it
just adds clutter and confusion to the customization interface.
2. The name and description of the controlling variable doesn't
match the implementation
The name suggests that setting the variable to t will cause
repeated subjects to be elided, (suggesting that when it is nil
all subjects will be shown).
However, when the variable is nil, no subjects are shown. So a
correct name for the variable in this sense would be
notmuch-show-subject-changes.
Showing subject changes is a useful feature, and should be on by
default. (We don't want to bury generally useful features behind
customizations that users have to find).
Rather than fixing the name of the variable and changing its default
value, here we remove the condition entirely, such that the feature is
enabled unconditionally.
So both the currently-used variable and the stale definition of the
formerly-used are removed.
Also, the one relevant test-suite result is updated, (showing the
intial subject of a collapsed thread, and no subject display for later
messages that do not change the subject).

This is patch is a temporary work-around for a slight regression that
popped up in the part handling reorganization. Currently, text/plain
parts are always preferred, if present, over other non-text/plain
parts in multipart/alternative. However, this means that if there is
a blank text/plain part, no content will be displayed.
One way to get around this is to set the
"notmuch-show-all-multipart/alternative-parts" customization variable
to True ('t'), which will cause all parts to always be displayed.
Since we want to move forward with the next release, we're going to
set this variable true by default, to make sure that no content is
unretrievably hidden from the user. Once we come up with a better
solution for easy display of hidden parts we can set this back to a
default value of 'nil'.
Before the change, headers and message visibility functions took
extra care to correctly set `buffer-invisibility-spec'. This was
needed because headers overlay `invisible' property had only
headers' invisibility spec. So visibility of headers was
determined only by the headers invisibility spec. The patch sets
headers overlay `invisible' property a list with both the headers
and the message invisibility spec. This makes headers invisible
if either of them is added to the `buffer-invisibility-spec' and
allows to simplify the code.
Before the patch, message, headers and hidden citation overlays
had zero priority. All these overlay have `invisible' property.
Emacs documentation says that we should not make assumptions
about which overlay will prevail when they have the same priority
[1]. It happens to work as we need, but we should not rely on
undocumented behavior.
[1] http://www.gnu.org/s/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Overlay-Properties.html
Before the change, the `notmuch-show-insert-text/plain-hook' was
given only the `depth' argument. The patch adds another one -
the message. Currently, the new message argument is not used by
any on the hooks. But it will be used later to get access to
message invisibility specs when wash buttons are inserted.
Mail-header-parse-address may fail for an invalid address.
Before the change, this would result in empty notmuch-show buffer
with an error message like: Scan error: "Unbalanced parentheses".
The patch wraps the function in condition-case and returns
unchanged address in case of error.
Write-region handles some file names specially, see Emacs Lisp
manual section 25.11 Making Certain File Names "Magic" [1]. This
is a nice feature for normal text editing, but it is not
desirable if we need to save raw file content (e.g. attachment).
In particular, this affects archives and may result in corrupted
attachments saved with notmuch-show-save-part (attachment button
click handler).
Turns out, smart GNUS folks encountered the same problem and
implemented write-region wrapper which inhibits some file name
handlers. In particular, this wrapper is used in mm-save-part,
which is why notmuch-save-attachments that uses it works fine
with archives.
The patch replaces write-region with mm-write-region in
notmuch-show-save-part. Also it removes coding-system-for-write
and require-final-newline setting in notmuch-show-save-part. The
former is set in mm-write-region. The latter seems to be
unneeded because mm-save-part does not use it.

This is the best way to make the displayed output for
decrypted/verified messages clearer. The special sigstatus and
encstatus buttons are now displayed under the part header button. The
part header button is also tweaked to provide information to user
about how to proces crypto.
We probably shouldn't have been doing this anyway, but we do it here
specifically because we don't want the content of the
application/pgp-encrypted parts to be displayed and cluttering the
message show.
A new emacs configuration variable "notmuch-crypto-process-mime"
controls the processing of PGP/MIME signatures and encrypted parts.
When this is set true, notmuch-query will use the notmuch show
--decrypt flag to decrypt encrypted messages and/or calculate the
sigstatus of signed messages. If sigstatus is available, notmuch-show
will place a specially color-coded header at the begining of the
signed message.
Also included is the ability to switch decryption/verification on/off
on the fly, which is bound to M-RET in notmuch-search-mode.
