So, to be clear here... the following doesn't work because instead of multiple
query parameters to 'lei q' the single-quoted string becomes a single
parameter?
lei q -I https://lore.kernel.org/all/ -o ~/work/temp/lei/robh-patches \
--threads --dedupe=mid \
'(dfn:drivers OR dfn:arch OR dfn:Documentation OR dfn:include OR
dfn:scripts) AND f:r...@kernel.org'
Any way to make this work? I find that it's more easily readable than the
"echo | lei q" version.
For bash users, the following should work as well:
lei q -I https://lore.kernel.org/all/ -o ~/work/temp/lei/robh-patches \
--threads --dedupe=mid <<< \
'(dfn:drivers OR dfn:arch OR dfn:Documentation OR dfn:include OR
dfn:scripts) AND f:r...@kernel.org'
Suggestion, can -I accept the URL containing the query, so that the command
becomes:
lei q -o ~/mail/foo --threads --dedupe=mid -I \
https://lore.kernel.org/all/?q=f%3Atorvalds+AND+nq%3Agarbage
This way we pass both the location of the extindex to query AND the parameters
we should use, avoiding shell quoting problems?
