Before the change, citation and signature wash buttons used the
same label in both visible and hidden states. Sometimes it is
very convenient when you can determine if the text is hidden or
shown without reading the context and/or clicking the button.
The patch makes it easy to see if the text is shown or hidden by
explicitly saying what the button does (shows or hides the text).
This patch adds hooks that are run before/after messages are tagged
From the emacs interface. In order to implement this and to avoid
having hooks parse all the arguments to the notmuch binary again, I
created a `notmuch-tag' function that other modules should use instead
of running (notmuch-call-notmuch-process "tag" ...) directly.
The command-line interface for extracting a single part from a message
recently changed from:
notmuch part --part=X
to:
notmuch show --format=raw --part=X
Remove double quotes and flatten "foo@bar.com <foo@bar.com>" to

Add a variable `notmuch-show-all-multipart/alternative-parts' that

preferred part. The default is `nil', showing only the preferred part.
This is mostly a debugging aid.

Previously, notmuch show flattened all output, losing information
about the nesting of the MIME hierarchy. Now, the output is properly
nested, (both in the --format=text and --format=json output), so that
clients can analyze the original MIME structure.
Internally, this required splitting the final closing delimiter out of
the various show_part functions and putting it into a new
show_part_end function instead. Also, the show_part function now
accepts a new "first" argument that is set not only for the first MIME
part of a message, but also for each first MIME part within a series
of multipart parts. This "first" argument controls the omission of a
preceding comma when printing a part (for json).
Many thanks to David Edmondson <dme@dme.org> for originally
identifying the lack of nesting in the json output and submitting an
early implementation of this feature. Thanks as well to Jameson Graef
Rollins <jrollins@finestructure.net> for carefully shepherding David's
patches through a remarkably long review process, patiently explaining
them, and providing a cleaned up series that led to this final
implementation. Jameson also provided the new emacs code here.
This avoids the emacs lisp compiler from emitting warnings on this
replacement code, (which warnings would be hard for us to eliminate
since we didn't write the code but copied it verbatim from emacs 23).
With the previous commit, unexpected output before or between search results
would be displayed. However, trailing junk from the "notmuch search" output
would still be silently swallowed.
The most common case for an error message from "notmuch search" would be
an invalid command-line, and in that case, there would be no search results
and the trailing error message would get swallowed.
We fix the process sentinel to check for leftover data and add it to the
final buffer. We also add a test case to ensure this works.
This fixes the recently-added emacs-large-search-buffer test. This is
as simple as saving any trailing input and then pre-prepending it on
the next call.
MAny thanks to Thomas Schwinge <thomas@schwinge.name> for tracking
down this problem and contributing a preliminary version of this fix.
Rather than silently swallowing unexpected output, the emacs interface will now
display it. This will allow error messages to actually arrive at the emacs
interface (though not in an especially pretty way). This also allows for easier
investigation of the inadvertent swallowing of search results that span page
boundaries (as demonstrated by the recent added emacs-large-search-buffer test).
The page-boundary bug has been present since a commit from 2009-11-24:
93af7b5745
Many thanks to Thomas Schwinge for tracking that bug down and
contributing the test for it.
Such as:
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
make
This is implemented by having the configure script set a srcdir
variable in Makefile.config, and then sprinkling $(srcdir) into
various make rules. We also use vpath directives to convince GNU make
to find the source files from the original source directory.
The call-process to notmuch in notmuch-query.el was previously sending
stderr into the output buffer. This means that if there is any stderr
the JSON parsing breaks. Unfortunately call-process does not support
sending stderr to a separate buffer or to the minibuffer [0], but it
does support sending it to /dev/null. So we do that here instead.
[0] a bug was filed against emacs (#7842)
Previously, the user didn't know whether the pipe command succeeded or
not. It was only possible to find it out by manually inspecting
the work done (or not done) by the command or by manually switching to
*notmuch-pipe* buffer and determine it from command output. For this
the user had to first find the text corresponding to the last run of
pipe command as the buffer accumulated the output from all pipe commands.
This patch changes the following. The *notmuch-pipe* buffer is erased
before every pipe command so it contains only the output from the last
command. Additionally, when the command failed, the *notmuch-pipe* buffer
is shown and an error message is displayed.

The removed expressions, which were used to ensure that citations were
both preceded and followed by a blank line, were poorly implemented
and caused a regexp stack overflow on messages more than a few
thousand lines long.
Incremental search does not match strings that span a
visible/invisible boundary. This results in failure to correctly
isearch for authors in `notmuch-search' mode if the name of the author
is split between the visible and invisible components of the authors
string. To avoid this, attempt to truncate the visible component of
the authors string on a boundary between authors, such that the
entirety of an author's name is either visible or invisible.
Appease the test suite by using the true name for the Fcc directory
path, otherwise a value for `notmuch-database-path' which includes
symbolic links causes test suite failures.
Emacs22 lacks apply-partially and mouse-event-p, so define them if emacs
version is less than 23. With this change, I was able to begin using
notmuch in emacs22.
The definitions of apply-partially and mouse-event-p are copied from
the emacs 23 distribution, (which is distributed under the GPLv3+ just
as notmuch).
Explained-by: Carl Worth: This gives convenient keybindings for
navigating the file and for quitting from the buffer, (since, with a
raw message file the user will generally want to just view the
message, not edit it).
This add a "stash-map" for search-mode, just like in show-mode, and
adds one function, bound to "i" to stash the thread-id of the current
selected thread.
Couldn't think of the correct way to stash other thread info, so I
didn't add any other stash functions for now.
Here we move the notmuch-show/notmuch-show-do-stash function to
notmuch-lib/notmuch-common-do-stash. Nothing in this function is
notmuch-show mode specific, so this move will make it cleaner to be
used by other modes (such as notmuch-search).
Re-work the declaration and definition of `notmuch-fcc-dirs'. The
variable now allows three types of values:
- nil: no Fcc header is added,
- a string: the value of `notmuch-fcc-dirs' is the name of the
folder to use,
- a list: the folder is chosen based on the From address of the
current message using a list of regular expressions and
corresponding folders:
((\"Sebastian@SSpaeth.de\" . \"privat\")
(\"spaetz@sspaeth.de\" . \"OUTBOX.OSS\")
(\".*\" . \"defaultinbox\"))
If none of the regular expressions match the From address, no
Fcc header will be added.
Remove 're: ' or 'Re: ' from anywhere within a subject line rather
than just at the beginning. This is to accommodate threads where a
mailing list sometimes inserts a subject prefix.
For example, if a thread has the subjects:
[Orgmode] org-indent, org-inlinetask: patches on github
Re: [Orgmode] org-indent, org-inlinetask: patches on github
[Orgmode] Re: org-indent, org-inlinetask: patches on github
the last of these would not have been considered the same and would
therefore have been shown.
kill-this-buffer appears to be a function intended specifically for
use in the menu bar, and causes problem killing notmuch buffers when
multiple frames have been used. This patch replaces kill-this-buffer
with notmuch-kill-this-buffer, which in turn just simply calls
(kill-buffer (current-buffer)).
This is part of an effort to avoid proliferation of excessive
top-level notmuch commands. Also, "raw" better captures the
functionality here, (as opposed to "cat" which is a fairly oblique
reference to a bad Unix abbreviation whose metaphor doesn't work here
since "notmuch cat" operates only on a single message and hence cannot
"con'cat'enate" anything).
This patch modifies the following commands to access the messages via
cat subcommand:
- view/save attachments ('v', 'w'),
- view a raw message ('V') and
- pipe a message to a command ('|').
With this patch, it is straightforward to use notmuch emacs interface
with a remote database accessed over SSH. To do this, it is sufficient
to redefine notmuch-command variable to contain the name of a script
containing:
ssh user@host notmuch "$@"
If the ssh client has enabled connection sharing (ControlMaster option
in OpenSSH), the emacs interface is almost as responsive as when
notmuch is invoked locally.
Without this little patch notmuch fails if asked to display a saved
search that has zero results
Edited-by: David Edmondson <dme@dme.org>: With code that is a little

Re-write `notmuch-search-color-line', with the following improvements:
- create overlays only if they will be needed,
- merge the properties specified for a tag on top of any matching a
previous tag.
Remove them from non-top-level entry points, (such as the functions to
set notmuch modes and the deprecated notmuch-folder function). And add
one to the notmuch-hello function. Also, add missing documentation
string to notmuch-hello.
I don't see copy-seq documented within emacs at all, and some users
have encountered failures of the form:
notmuch-show-del-tags-worker: Symbol's function definition is void: copy-seq
This should eliminate that problem.
The original code was intended to work, but clearly wasn't tested. Use
mail-header (as in existing code) to extract a header from a header alist.
This fixes the duplicate-from-line bug that is exercised by the test
just added to the test suite.
Yet another case of "how could this have possibly worked before?!".
I guess we were just getting very lucky with the emacs lisp calling
conventions and what happens with extra arguments, but, ick! Much
better now.
As the emacs compiler warns, the goto-line function is only intended for
interactive use. Instead use the approach recommended in the goto-line
documentation to avoid this.
This is one of those cases where the warning looks absolutely correct,
(complaining about a free variable), but I'm left wondering how the
original code could have worked at all.
From what I can tell, this code wasn't actually being called by any
of the current code in notmuch.
The GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual section D.1 says:

Follow this advice, requiring the following changes where `cl' was
used at runtime:
- replace `rassoc-if' in `notmuch-search-buffer-title' with the `loop'
macro and inline code. At the same time find the longest prefix
which matches the query rather than simply the last,
- replace `union', `intersection' and `set-difference' in
`notmuch-show-add-tag' and `notmuch-show-remove-tag' with local code
to calculate the result of adding and removing a list of tags from
another list of tags.
Call notmuch-fcc-header-setup from message-header-setup-hook rather
than message-send-hook. This allows you to see what's going to
happen, and to make manual adjustments if desired. Gnus does
something similar.

Now that the FCC code is fixed to use the notmuch database path, we can
actually enable this by default, which should be highly useful for all
new users of notmuch.
Otherwise, FCC is too hard to use, (user must set it and also set message-
directory variable to match notmuch mail datbase path). As a rule, I'd like
for users of notmuch to not be required to muck around with non-notmuch
mail settings in emacs.
The above is only really possible now thanks to the recent addition of the
"notmuch config get" command which allows emacs to query the currently
configured notmuch database path.
This also now allows an absolute-path FCC to be set if desired.
If Xapian sees unquoted ".." as in id:123..456 then it thinks that's a
range specification. We avoid this problem by instead passing
id:"123..456" to Xapian.
That is, a subject with a bracketed set of digits (and optionally a
slash), for example "[2010]" would cause the emacs code to misparse
the search results. Fix this by tweaking the regular expression.
We extend the '|' command so that passing a prefix argument, (for
example, "C-u |"), causes it to pipe all open messages in the current
thread rather than just the single, current message.
This was previously wrapped for unsubtituted command names. It looks
much better in the notmuch-help (available with '?') if wrapped
according to the length of the substituted command names.
Rather than discarding authors when truncated to fit the defined
column width, mark the text beyond the end of the column as invisible
and allow `isearch' to be used over the text so hidden.
This allows us to retain the compact display whilst enabling a user to
find the elided text.
Add `notmuch-show-relative-dates' to control whether the summary line
in `notmuch-show' mode displays relative dates (e.g. '26 mins. ago') or
the full date string from the message. Default to `t' for
compatibility with the previous behaviour.
Shift-TAB is standard "opposite" of TAB -- in GUI interfaces they
typically cycle through input elements in opposite orders -- so it
makes sense to behave the same way.

Insert a separator every three digits when outputting numbers. Allow
the user to choose the separator by customizing
`notmuch-decimal-separator'. Widen the space allocated for message
counts accordingly.
This lets us pick up later changes to widget-keymap if the user
customizes it in some way. This is the recommended way to use
`widget-keymap', according to its help.
This enables the nifty '?' key binding to work in notmuch-hello
(although for some strange reasons I don't see any descriptions for
specific key bindings yet. Not sure how that is supposed to work
though.

In notmuch-mua-reply we were filtering out the Subject and To headers
manually in a loop, but message mode offers a nice function for
exactly that. Simplify the code by using it. Also, as notmuch-mua-mail
already sorts and hides headers that we want sorted and hidden, we can
safely remove those 2 functions from here as well. Also remove the
(require 'cl), the only reason for its existence was the now removed
"loop" function.

Add `notmuch-column-control', which has three potential sets of
values:
- t: automatically calculate the number of columns per line based on
the tags to be shown and the window width,
- an integer: a lower bound on the number of characters that will be
used to display each column,
- a float: a fraction of the window width that is the lower bound on
the number of characters that should be used for each column.
So:
- if you would like two columns of tags, set this to 0.5.
- if you would like a single column of tags, set this to 1.0.
- if you would like tags to be 30 characters wide, set this to
30.
- if you don't want to worry about all of this nonsense, leave
this set to `t'.

In search mode some messages don't match the search criteria. Show

those that do match.
In the common case that a user only has one FCC (save outgoing mail in
the Mail directory, it is now possible to simply configure a string
such as "Sent" in the notmuch-fcc-dirs variable. More complex options,

The fcc code would only initialize if notmuch-fcc-dirs was set. This was
a problem if you reset the variable, or added the variable later during
initialization. Now we always add the fcc hook, but it doesn't do
anything unless notmuch-fcc-dirs are set.
Add a (require 'notmuch-message) to notmuch.el. This is for functions that
specifically target message mode (and, in the future, notmuch-message
mode).
Add `notmuch-message-mark-replied', a function for automatically tagging
replied messages with user-defined tags. The tags (which can be either
added or removed) can be customized with the customization variable
`notmuch-message-replied-tags'. This is a simple list of strings. Any
string prefaced with a "-" will be removed; any string prefaced with a "+"
(or neither "+" nor "-") will be added.
This adds a new file notmuch-message.el, for functions which target
message mode (and in the future, notmuch-message mode). Based on some
conversation, notmuch-message.el will probably end up subsuming
notmuch-mua.el, but until we figure out exactly how we want to do that,
they will remain separate files.

The fix in 1e18711543 broke end-of-row
wrapping when drawing the table of tags/saved searches. Fix that and
improve the readability of the matrix reflection code to hasten future
debugging.
If the 'all tags' section of the hello buffer will not be shown, don't
consider those tags when determining the number of saved searches that
can be displayed on a single line.
Re-working the saved search/tag insertion to buttonize only the name
of the saved search/tag plus one space broke the calculation of how
much filler is required to complete the column, resulting in lines
wider than the window.
It's possible that the user has instructed message-mode to use some
other separator. If so, then that's what we should look for when
looking for the signature.
Thanks to David Edmondson <dme@dme.org> for pointing this out.
If the user specifies a maildir that does not exist, prompt the user to
see whether a maildir should be created. This will fail, with the
relevant explanation, if the location is not writable, or if a file
already exists in that location. If the location is a dir, but not a
maildir, this will add /tmp/cur/new to it.
Throw an error after the maildir is generated but before the message
is sent. This change allows the user to edit the maildir if it fails,
so that it will point to a correct place.
Note that this changes the previous behavior which always overwrote
the existing Fcc line. Now, an Fcc line is only auto-generated if
there isn't one already there.
The ideal change would be to prompt to create a maildir. This should
enable a place for doing that in a future patch.
The complete-string matching of commit
f2ebe3ac44
defeats the substitution of partial search
strings when the user manually types a
long search string that just happens to
partially match a saved search.
For example, typing "tag:inbox and not tag:foo"
should result in "[inbox] and not tag:foo" but
this has been broken since that commit.
As a compromise between this feature and what the
commit was trying to achieve, we now reverse the
saved-searches list before looking for a match.
This happens to work for me, but won't necessarily
work in general.
What we really want is the longest match, but rassoc-if
just gives us the first match. All of this is just about
creating slightly nice search-buffer names. So if anyone
really cares about making the names *even* nicer, then
they could improve this further.
I happen to have a lot of saved searches that are variants of the
tag:inbox search, (such as "tag:inbox and tag:notmuch"). The logic for
these was always matching inbox first, resulting in "[ inbox ] and
tag:notmuch" rather than "notmuch" as desired.
Anchor the regular expression on both ends to make it look harder for
the better match.
We are asserting that the new notmuch-hello implementation, (available
by just calling `notmuch') is just as easy to use as the old
notmuch-folder. So let's remove what's now a largely redundant
implementation.
To make this transition easier, we are still supporting the
notmuch-folders variable name, and we still provide `notmuch-folder'
as an alias which can be invoked to get the new notmuch-hello
functionality.
Previously, this was calling into a notmuch-folder-count
function. Only, everything related to notmuch-folder is about to go
away, so lets have notmuch-hello define its own function
(notmuch-saved-search-count) for this purpose.
