Yeah, but what about the rubyists? I have *never* seen the `for`
statement used anywhere. It's basically the first thing you learn in
Ruby, right after variables and objects[1].

  File.open('README').each { |l| puts l }

It also matches the notmuch_rb_threads_each () C function, which BTW
should return an Enumerator when no block is given, in order to match
other `each` methods:

    File.open('README').each # this returns an Enumerator

Being more familiar with Ruby can only improve the Ruby bindings.

Cheers.
