[PATCH 1/3] emacs: bind "s" to `notmuch-search' in notmuch-hello buffer

[PATCH 1/3] emacs: bind "s" to `notmuch-search' in notmuch-hello buffer

[Dmitry Kurochkin]

Before the change, "s" in notmuch-hello buffer would jump to the
search box.  The patch changes the binding to `notmuch-search' which
is consistent with all other notmuch buffers.

[PATCH 2/3] emacs: use a single history for all searches

[Dmitry Kurochkin]

There are two ways to do search in Emacs UI: search widget in
notmuch-hello buffer and `notmuch-search' function bound to "s".
Before the change, these search mechanisms used different history
lists.  The patch makes notmuch-hello search use the same history list
as `notmuch-search' function.

After this, what would the user have to do to bind some key to put the
point in the search box? If someone wants to restore old behaviour for
themselves.

Also, it's perhaps out of scope for this patch, but it will become more
evident now that notmuch-search does not respect
notmuch-search-oldest-first when called without parameters like the new
's' keybinding does. This is the same in search view.


BR,
Jani.

There is no way to do that.  From the previous discussions, I do not
remember anyone wanted the current "s" jumping behavior.  Let's wait for
some feedback and see if anyone wants that.  I would prefer to remove
this function and the global variable it uses.

I agree that this is an issue.  But it is outisde of the scope of this
patch series.

The test output updates included here should be with the previous patch,

Should user-typed queries be trimmed?

IMO that would not hurt.  But we need to do it before it gets added to
the history.  And that may be tricky.  So this patch does trimming only
for queries from notmuch-hello search box (as it was before).

[PATCH v2 1/3] emacs: bind "s" to `notmuch-search' in notmuch-hello buffer

[Dmitry Kurochkin]

Before the change, "s" in notmuch-hello buffer would jump to the
search box.  The patch changes the binding to `notmuch-search' which
is consistent with all other notmuch buffers.

[PATCH v2 2/3] emacs: use a single history for all searches

[Dmitry Kurochkin]

There are two ways to do search in Emacs UI: search widget in
notmuch-hello buffer and `notmuch-search' function bound to "s".
Before the change, these search mechanisms used different history
lists.  The patch makes notmuch-hello search use the same history list
as `notmuch-search' function.

[PATCH v3 2/3] emacs: use a single history for all searches

[Dmitry Kurochkin]

There are two ways to do search in Emacs UI: search widget in
notmuch-hello buffer and `notmuch-search' function bound to "s".
Before the change, these search mechanisms used different history
lists.  The patch makes notmuch-hello search use the same history list
as `notmuch-search' function.

[PATCH v4 2/3] emacs: use a single history for all searches

[Dmitry Kurochkin]

There are two ways to do search in Emacs UI: search widget in
notmuch-hello buffer and `notmuch-search' function bound to "s".
Before the change, these search mechanisms used different history
lists.  The patch makes notmuch-hello search use the same history list
as `notmuch-search' function.

This should work:

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (add-hook 'notmuch-hello-mode-hook
              (lambda ()
                 (local-set-key (kbd "s")
                  (lambda() (interactive)
                   (re-search-forward "Search: ")))))
  #+end_src

Thanks for the basic idea, iterated into:

(define-key notmuch-hello-mode-map "S"
  (lambda() (interactive)
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (re-search-forward "Search: ")))
