Subject: [PATCH 2/2] emacs: Prefer Content-Description over filename for part buttons
Date: Mon,  3 Feb 2014 02:45:34 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <27be295875a7df782a83c9a2c09d06f9d321fe9e.1391423201.git.wking@tremily.us> (raw)

In-Reply-To: <cover.1391423201.git.wking@tremily.us>

On the rss2email list, Victor Orlikowski pointed out [1] that a number
of MUAs don't use the Subject header of attached message/rfc822 parts
to label multipart/digest subparts [2].  Instead, notmuch and several
other MUAs use the filename parameter [3] as a content hint.  Using
the filename parameter seems more sane than diving into the
message/rfc822 part header, but that's still not what the filename
parameter was designed for.  It makes more sense to me to use the
message/rfc822 part's Content-Description header (which I just taught
notmuch-show to export), falling back on the filename parameter if
Content-Description isn't set.

+I'm just noticing that 'notmuch help ...' outputs to stderr, which
+isn't terribly intuitive.  For example, the obvious invocation:
+
+  notmuch help | less
+
+...isn't terribly helpful.
+
+I've attached a patch that lets usage() take a FILE * argument so that
+you can output to stderr in response to usage errors, and stdout in
