[PATCH] notmuch-emacs-mua: more options, some fixes

Sat Mar 7 02:36:45 PST 2015
Two new options added:
--from: specify alternate From: header
--bodytext: possibility to give body content from command line
Non-forking escape() functionality, also escaping \ (backslash) characters.
Without content arguments start emacs/emacsclient and run (notmuch-hello),
in this case without assigning anything to message-exit-actions.
Point is now positioned at the end of the content given last on command
line, unless to: or subject: is missing -- in which case point is
positioned at one of these headers (is both missing, at to:)
The -nw option is now given to emacs in case --no-window-system command
line option is provided (--no-window-system used to work with emacsclient
only).
In case EMACS or EMACSCLIENT environment variable was defined but being
empty (null string), use emacs/emacsclient as command instead (null string
as executable name gives confusing error message). Also $EMACS/$EMACSCLIENT
executable name is now quoted to *NOT* split it to separate command line
arguments on any $IFS variables there might be.
Reorganized content argument handling to combine the content of same option
given multiple times and make it look more readable when --print option is
used. --body option also now checks the existence of the file to be
included and if the file included does not end with newline trailing
newline is inserted to the message buffer.
As bash supports [[ ]] command and it's special expansion (or lack thereof)
of variables (and ==, && and || inside) the few [ ]'s there were are now
changed to this more advanced format.
---
The changes *NOT* taken from my 2 draft patches (*)
1) no -nw hacking
2) no mailto: handling
