  76 A simple shell way to do this would be\r
  77 \r
  78     notmuch search-tags | grep "^bremner\." | xargs -I {} notmuch search tag:{}\r
  79 \r
  80 That's pretty quick over a fair amount of messages. It would be quicker,\r
  81 I imagine, if it did the grepping inside of a program, but this is still\r
  82 way down there in the subsecond range.\r
  83 \r
  84 NB. I don't have that many tags, so maybe the grepping step would bog\r
  85 down a bit if I had more. But I doubt someone would have that much more\r
  86 than a few hundred.\r
