From 209e756cd4571964821221d5d4d8447b0aadd43d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carl Worth Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2010 12:05:17 -0700 Subject: test: Add a new test_emacs function to test-lib.sh This should be quite handy for doing automated testing of the emacs-based functionality in notmuch. This function invokes emacs with the necessary command-line arguments, (to run in batch mode with no local initialization, to load the notmuch code from the source directory, and to ensure an 80-column width). --- test/README | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) (limited to 'test/README') diff --git a/test/README b/test/README index 86afab5c..1a5b5167 100644 --- a/test/README +++ b/test/README @@ -154,6 +154,14 @@ library for your script to use. argument.
