Exactly, that was my intuition too. Maybe, we should break with
tradition! :-) In any case, I have changed all instances of "function"
to "procedure".

Good catch! compose is part of a new "mumi compose" feature I am working
on. I had accidentally committed it. I have removed it from this commit.
Now that you mention it, maybe I should call it compose-email so as to
not conflict with compose from guile core.

Good point! I was not aware of false-if-exception. I have changed to
using it now.

call-with-input-pipe* and call-with-input-pipe are both defined in
mumi/client.scm. They are not part of guile. The only difference between
them is whether they accept the command as a string or as a list of
arguments---thus, they parallel open-pipe and open-pipe*.

call-with-input-pipe* does raise an exception when git is available but
sendemail.headerCmd is not set. I checked. So, this is not a problem.

sendemail.headerCmd is only available to us as a string, and not as a
list of arguments. It is quite non-trivial to correctly split the string
back into a list of arguments. That would require correct handling of
quotes like the shell does. So, we use call-with-input-pipe to handle
this case.
But everywhere else (such as when invoking "git config
sendemail.headerCmd"), we prefer to pass commands as a list of
arguments. So, we need call-with-input-pipe*.
I understand it's a bit confusing to have two very similar
functions. But, the only possible compromise is to use
call-with-input-pipe everywhere. Should I make that compromise? WDYT?
Thanks for the review!
Regards,
Arun
