Hi Michal,

no silly question at all ;). I found pynotmuch a bit predictive and
boring, and as this is the notmuch bindings to the C-library notmuch, I
just called it 'cnotmuch'. A "pynotmuch" would be a pure python
re-implementation in my mindset...

Just like the c-version of the StringIO module is called cStringIO. etc,
so I am not completely off the track here.

Having that said, I am not particularly attached to that name and can
easily change it. I am in the process of uploading it to pypi.python.org
though, so it will soon be available for a simple local install with
"easy_install cnotmuch".

Next to finding it, the only reference a user will usually only need is
"from cnotmuch import notmuch", the rest is just "notmuch" stuff.
