Subject: [emacs] getting the text part of the body programmatically

Hello,
The emacs interface to notmuch is great in helping me collect messages
from a public mailing list for a newsletter. I’m trying to automate more
of it, and I wonder if there is a way to get the text of the message
body programmatically in notmuch-show-mode. This is what I am doing
currently:
(defun as/notmuch-get-body ()
(let* ((msg (notmuch-show-get-message-properties))
(part (notmuch-show-get-part-properties)))
(notmuch-get-bodypart-text msg part nil)))
It works, but I first have to put the cursor in the part for the
`notmuch-show-get-part-properties' to work. Is there a way to get the
text part of the body without moving the cursor (i.e., when it is still
in the headers)?
Thanks,
Alan
