I am using a mutt fork with notmuch search integrtion. This macro is to search for all messages matching the same subject as the current message. E.g. I want something like the following as the macro: "<vfolder-from-query>subject:\"`<shell-cmd> <cur-msg-file>`\"&limit=threads\n" or, "<vfolder-from-query>subject:\"`<pipe-cur-msg>|<shell-cmd>`\"&limit=threads\n" In my case I have a sed oneliner as <shell-cmd>. I hope that clarifies what I'm attempting better. Thanks a lot, -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
