But isn't status-bar-text only triggered by keystrokes? Anyways, I'm updating the file from after-poll.rb, it seems to work.

Having now read the mail-notification manpage... the problem is mail-notification. It should provide a way for other apps to signal a notification (the whole Unix philosophy of decomposability, etc.) but it does not. Periodically dumping all new messages into a dummy mbox file is a terrible idea, but I think that's your only Sup-specific option. Patching mail-notification is a better idea, though that may not be what you want to hear. If you're using a recent Gnome, you have some other options. If you're running notification-daemon (e.g. Ubuntu 9.04), you can install the libnotify-bin package and having the after-poll hook call notify-bin on new email. (Not quite the same.) You can also look at the indicator-applet: libindicate also has Python bindings, so you could install python-indicate and write a python short program to use that. -- William <wmorgan-sup at masanjin.net> ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Any code snippets? I really need to clean up the code so that all of Sup's special query parsing (chronic, contact aliases, etc.) is accessible, but you can do simple queries directly through the Ferret API with a script like: require 'sup' i = Redwood::Index.new i.load puts "total unread: " + i.ferret.search("label:unread").total_hits puts "inbox unread: " + i.ferret.search("label:unread AND label:inbox").total_hits That gets you the number of messages, not the number of threads. (Sup doesn't store the latter.) -- William <wmorgan-sup at masanjin.net> ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Any idea what might cause that? I think the Sup version will by default not include killed or deleted messages so that might be whats causing it.

So you can now do this: require 'sup' i = Redwood::Index.new i.load puts "total unread: " + i.run_query("label:unread").size.to_s puts "inbox unread: " + i.run_query("label:unread AND label:inbox").size.to_s which has the same effect as above, but now you should be able to pass in all the fancy options you can use on the search line (from:/to: with contacts, :limit, date options if you have chronic installed, etc). -- William <wmorgan-sup at masanjin.net> ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

It might be good enough. I'm doing something quite similar: I have a status-bar-text hook. $ cat ~/.sup/hooks/status-bar-text.rb dir = ENV['HOME']+'/.sup/' state_new = dir+'state.new' File.open(state_new, 'w') do |f| f.puts "SupState { sup_num_inbox_unread = #{num_inbox_unread} }" end File.rename(state_new, dir+'state') rescue nil nil Then I have tweaked my xmonad config to inject the contents of this file in my dzen bar.
