Hello.

Thought I'd share a hack I've been using recently. I have my 
notmuch database on another machine. I wanted to access it via my 
local emacs session. I didn't want to ssh in to the machine or 
sync the data to another machine. I realised all communication is 
done via the notmuch binary, so I wrote a wrapper script which 
runs notmuch via ssh:

  #!/usr/bin/env bash  args=()  for var in "$@" do 
      args+=($(printf '%q' "$var")) 
  done  exec ssh real.local -- notmuch "${args[@]}" 

Note I have hardcoded the remote (real.local). I also needed to 
escape arguments since the remote shell had a tendancy to 
interpret them. This escaping isn't fullproof, but has been 
working so far.

I put the above script on my PATH as "notmuch", and emacs 
magically uses it. Alternatively you could set the notmuch-command 
to point to the above shell script.

Cheers,
Keegan
