Act on multiple threads in search mode #1598

Closed mizlan closed 2 years ago

mizlan commented 2 years ago

Describe the solution you'd like I would like a way to manipulate tags on all threads in a search view, or maybe the ability to highlight certain threads (a la ranges in Vim) that could then be acted on with a command.

Describe alternatives you've considered I could run notmuch tag +mytag -- 'search term' in a separate terminal and refresh. But this is not really the cleanest solution when there are entries in there which I'd like to avoid: a UI would be much nicer for that.

Does :tag --all solve your problem? Check the help with :help tag.

mizlan commented 2 years ago

That is exactly what I want, thank you! What would be the best way to exclude certain messages in the query from being tagged?

lucc commented 2 years ago

You can not do that directly but you can use refine to change the search.
