(Of course, that you had > to ask suggests otherwise...) It is funny that I've used emacs for all these years without learning this. But in general, I have been trying to keep the notmuch interface fairly self-explanatory. I know that some people that have never used emacs at all are giving notmuch a try, just to see what it's like. And I'd like to help them have as positive experience as possible. > > I don't suppose it would be feasible to make Space and DEL navigate > > through the list as well would it? > > Not with `completing-read', but I'll look at it after 0.3. That's what I'd assumed. If we end up doing our own thing here, I'd even have a few more things on my wishlist. I think I'd like for matching addresses to start appearing in the minibuffer as I started typing, (even before hitting TAB). Of course, for that we're going to need a faster address completer, which will mean getting the actual addresses into the database. So I'll add that to my list of the many things I want to fix in the great database-schema-rewrite that's coming soon. -Carl -- carl.d.worth@intel.com
