[notmuch] [PATCH] notmuch.el: add functionality to add or remove tags by region.

Jesse Rosenthal jrosenthal at jhu.edu
Wed Jan 20 12:58:10 PST 2010


This patch adds `-region' versions of the `notmuch-search-' commands to find properties. It also splits up  `notmuch-add/remove-tags' into both a `-thread' and a `-region' version. (This makes us modify `notmuch-search-archive-thread' to use the `notmuch-search-remove-tag-thread' function, instead of `notmuch-search-remove-tag', for consistency.) The add/remove-tag command called by pressing `+' or `-' will then choose accordingly, based on whether region is active.
