Hi The remote-notmuch.sh script on page http://notmuchmail.org/remoteusage/ starts to show it's age. As the notmuch command line interface has evolved (and emacs ui followed) it is not working in many cases anymore.
I took the script and modified it to work in my cases so far. If you have problems with remote-notmuch.sh take a look this modified version. For the time being it is located at http://www.iki.fi/too/nottoomuch/remote-notmuch.sh If this proves to be working better in other users use then I can update the script on the remoteusage page also. Changes: Changed shebang to '#!/bin/sh' -- tested the script works with /bin/bash & /bin/dash -- It should also work with http://heirloom.sourceforge.net/sh.html but I did not test. Changed sha1sum to 'openssl sha1' -- should work identically everywhere where openssl is installed (Linux, *BSD, Mac OS X, ...). Changed arg quote mangling for ssh command line: Every arg is encapsulated between ':s and ':s in args replaced with '\'' construct. Note that shell builtin echo expansions cannot be handled here but in this case this doesn't cause problems; example: foo=-n bar='\n'; echo "$foo" x "$bar" y (but see at the end of this email..) 'notmuch show' checks that first arg is --format=raw and last begins with id: -- and in this case uses the whole command line as hash key. 'case' used to choose internal command and shifts there removed. Tomi PS: I tested replacement for "'`echo "$arg" | sed "s/'/'\\\\\\''/"`'": for a do x=`awk -v arg="$a" "BEGIN { while (index(\"'\", arg)) sub(\"'\", \"'\\\\\\''\", arg); printf \"'%s'\", arg }"` echo "$x" done on command line. I include this into my script and test first before putting to the 'released' version. _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org http://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
