And require that if TEST_EMACS is specified, so is TEST_EMACSCLIENT. Previously, the test framework always used "emacsclient", even if the Emacs in use was overridden by TEST_EMACS. This causes problems if both Emacs 23 and Emacs 24 are installed, the Emacs 23 emacsclient is the system default, but TEST_EMACS is set to emacs24. Specifically, with an Emacs 24 server and an Emacs 23 client, emacs tests that run very quickly may produce no output from emacsclient, causing the test to fail. The Emacs server uses a very simple line-oriented protocol in which the client sends a request to evaluate an expression and the server sends a request to print the result of evaluation. Prior to Emacs bzr commit 107565 on March 11th, 2012 (released in Emacs 24.1), if multiple commands were sent to the emacsclient between when it sent the evaluation command and when it entered its receive loop, it would only process the first response command, ignoring the rest of the received buffer. This wasn't a problem with the Emacs 23 server because it sent only the command to print the evaluation result. However, the Emacs 24 server first sends an unprompted command specifying the PID of the Emacs server, then processes the evaluation request, then sends the command to print the result. If the evaluation is fast enough, it can send both of these commands before emacsclient enters the receive loop. Hence, if an Emacs 24 server is used with an Emacs 23 emacsclient, it may miss the response printing command, ultimately causing intermittent notmuch test failures. |

Notmuch - thread-based email index, search and tagging. Notmuch is a system for indexing, searching, reading, and tagging large collections of email messages in maildir or mh format. It uses the Xapian library to provide fast, full-text search with a convenient search syntax. Notmuch is free software, released under the GNU General Public License version 3 (or later). Building notmuch ---------------- See the INSTALL file for notes on compiling and installing notmuch. Running notmuch --------------- After installing notmuch, start by running "notmuch setup" which will interactively prompt for configuration information such as your name, email address, and the directory which contains your mail archive to be indexed. You can change any answers later by running "notmuch setup" again or by editing the .notmuch-config file in your home directory. With notmuch configured you should next run "notmuch new" which will index all of your existing mail. This can take a long time, (several hours) if you have a lot of email, (hundreds of thousands of files). When new mail is delivered to your mail archive in the future, you will want to run "notmuch new" again. These runs will be much faster as they will only index new messages. Finally, you can prove to yourself that things are working by running some command-line searches such as "notmuch search from:someone@example.com" or "notmuch search subject:topic". See "notmuch help search-terms" for more details on the available search syntax. The command-line search output is not expected to be particularly friendly for day-to-day usage. Instead, it is expected that you will use an email interface that builds on the notmuch command-line tool or the libnotmuch library. Notmuch installs a full-featured email interface for use within emacs. To use this, first add the following line to your .emacs file: (require 'notmuch) Then, either run "emacs -f notmuch" or execute the command "M-x notmuch" from within a running emacs. If you're interested in a non-emacs-based interface to notmuch, then please join the notmuch community. Various other interfaces are already in progress, (an interface within vim, a curses interface, graphical interfaces based on evolution, and various web-based interfaces). The authors of these interfaces would love further testing or contribution. See contact information below.
