Subject: [PATCH] VIM: Use notmuch CLI for config
Date: Thu,  2 Oct 2014 14:53:16 -0700
Message-Id: <1412286796-27479-1-git-send-email-imain@stemwinder.org>
Precedence: list

This patch switches from reading .notmuch-config directly to using
the CLI the same way that emacs does it.  It actually uses less code
and is probably less error prone.
