notmuch: Reference help, don't print it for unknown commands.
The shorter output is much nicer for something that might end up
in an emacs mini-buffer, for example.
Carl Worth [Sat, 31 Oct 2009 08:55:12 +0000 (01:55 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Add final '*' to generated buffer names.
Just looks a little neater that way.
Carl Worth [Sat, 31 Oct 2009 08:41:44 +0000 (01:41 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Enter now calls "notmuch show" on the current thread
It's remarkable how little code we need for a very functional GUI
here. I think we're doing something right.
Carl Worth [Sat, 31 Oct 2009 08:04:01 +0000 (01:04 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Start fleshing out notmuch-search-mode with a custom keymap
All we have here so far is 'n' and 'p' for going to next and
previous lines respectively.
Carl Worth [Sat, 31 Oct 2009 07:44:39 +0000 (00:44 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Switch from start-process to call-process
We now get the point staying right at the top where we want it.
We also don't get any extraneous noise about "Process notmuch
completed" or anything like that. Just the output in a read-only
buffer.
Carl Worth [Sat, 31 Oct 2009 06:42:39 +0000 (23:42 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Switch from compilation-start to start-process
Compilation mode does a bunch of things that we don't want. Instead
of trying to tear it down to what we want, let's start at the other
end and build up only things that we really want.
Carl Worth [Sat, 31 Oct 2009 00:18:19 +0000 (17:18 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Add notmuch-search command as well as notmuch
This allows for entering a query string interactively.
Carl Worth [Sat, 31 Oct 2009 00:17:16 +0000 (17:17 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Copy copyright information from compilation.el
I'm using that file as my reference here, so I'm likely to end up
copying some code here or there. Might as well be safe and just
copy the copyright statement.
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 22:17:27 +0000 (15:17 -0700)]
notmuch.el: Rename from notmuch-mode.el to notmuch.el
Also add the copyright and licensing blurb.
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 22:12:49 +0000 (15:12 -0700)]
notmuch-mode: Add an actualy notmuch-search-mode as well
Doesn't really do anything so far other than mark the buffer read-
only. This does have the benefit of giving us our own name rather
than "Compilation" for the mode.
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 22:05:53 +0000 (15:05 -0700)]
The very beginnings of an emacs mode for notmuch in notmuch-mode.el.
As expected, there's not much done here yet---it simply displays the
output of "notmuch search" in a new window.
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 19:02:11 +0000 (12:02 -0700)]
TODO: Add man page and compiling a libnotmuch library to the list.
These are things we'll want done before any big announcement.
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 19:00:55 +0000 (12:00 -0700)]
Makefile: Add a simple target for "make install".
The more I do here, the less I see the need for autotools.
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 18:57:43 +0000 (11:57 -0700)]
TODO: Note that "notmuch show" exists now and list several new ideas.
The timestamp stuff we'll want to do soon, since it's a database
change, (though not a major one---at worst a handful of stale
timestamp documents would be left in the database).
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 00:42:21 +0000 (17:42 -0700)]
Fix relative date formatting to not split one day into two formats.
We were aware of this bug when we wrote the function, (that a date
six days in the past would be treated as the "Friday" or as the
"Oct. 23" case depending on whether its time was before or after
the current time today). We thought it wouldn't be a problem, but
in practice it is. In scanning search results with this output,
the transition between formats makes it look like a day boundary,
(so it would be easy to mistakenly think "Oct. 23" is Thursday).
Fix this to avoid confusion, (still being careful to never print
"Thursday" for a date 7 days in the past when today is Thursday).
Carl Worth [Fri, 30 Oct 2009 00:31:07 +0000 (17:31 -0700)]
notmuch search: Add (relative) date to search output
The new function for formatting relative dates is nice enough that
we need to start using it more places. Here's one of them.
Carl Worth [Thu, 29 Oct 2009 23:06:27 +0000 (16:06 -0700)]
notmuch show: Add a one-line summary of the message before the header.
The idea here is that a client could usefully display just this one
line while optionally hiding the other header fields.
Carl Worth [Thu, 29 Oct 2009 21:07:45 +0000 (14:07 -0700)]
notmuch show: Trim down header list.
This is for now a non-configurable list of Subject, From, To, Cc,
Bcc, and Date.
Carl Worth [Thu, 29 Oct 2009 16:06:53 +0000 (09:06 -0700)]
notmuch show: Add body of message as well.
This is just the raw message body for now, (so any MIME parsing will
be up to the consumer). And this will likely change in the future.
Carl Worth [Thu, 29 Oct 2009 15:51:12 +0000 (08:51 -0700)]
notmuch show: Initial implementation (headers only)
We're using a delimiter syntax that Keith is optimistic about
being able to easily parse in emacs. Note: We're not escaping
any occurrence of the delimiters in the message yet, so we'll
need to fix that.
Carl Worth [Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:52:45 +0000 (16:52 -0700)]
TODO: Update now that full-text indexing is in.
The optimization idea removed here doesn't make sense anymore with
full-text indexing happening up front.
Carl Worth [Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:50:14 +0000 (16:50 -0700)]
Fix add_message and get_filename to strip/re-add the database path.
We now store only a relative path inside the database so the database
is not nicely relocatable.
Carl Worth [Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:09:19 +0000 (16:09 -0700)]
notmuch setup/new: Print progress once per second instead of after 1000 files.
With the recent addition of full-text indexing, printing only once per
1000 files just isn't often enough. The new timer-based approach will
be reliable regardless of the speed of adding message.
