notmuch/notmuch.1, branch 0.5

Rename "notmuch cat" to "notmuch show --format=raw"

2010-11-06T19:03:51Z

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).

Add 'cat' subcommand

This command outputs a raw message matched by search term to the standard output. It allows MUAs to access the messages for piping, attachment manipulation, etc. by running notmuch cat rather then directly access the file. This will simplify the MUAs when they need to operate on a remote database. Edited-by: Carl Worth : Remove trailing whitespace, add missing "test_done" to new test script to avoid "Unexpected exit" error.

manpage: Add escaping for hyphen used as minus

As pointed out by Debian lintian, options with '-' might not be copy/pastable if formatted with an unescaped '-' character.

documentation: Add the "files" option to the synopsis of "search --output="

2010-10-28T19:15:51Z

This was inadvertently left off when --output=files was recently added as a new option.

notmuch search: Add a new "notmuch search --output=files"

2010-10-28T18:35:54Z

Yet another thing that will be extremely handy for scripts.

notmuch search: Add a new --output=(summary|threads|messages|tags) option.

2010-10-28T18:35:16Z

This can be handy for scripts which need to extract just a thread ID from a search term, for example.

notmuch config: Allow for new "notmuch config set" in addition to get

2010-10-27T22:38:16Z

It is now possible to set configuration items from the command-line in a manner quite similar to the support for querying configuration items.

notmuch: Add a new "notmuch config" command for querying configuration.

2010-10-27T20:02:17Z

So far, we implement only "notmuch config get". It won't be too much work from here to also implement "notmuch config set".

notmuch show: Add documentation of --format=mbox

2010-09-16T21:47:32Z

Shame on me for adding a feature without documenting it at the same time.

nomtuch.1: Add documentation for "notmuch count"

2010-04-10T00:44:01Z

Somehow this has been missing from our manual. Add it now.
