+INSTALLATION & DEINSTALL
+------------------------

+cnotmuch is available on pypi.python.org. This means you can do

+into:
+
+/usr/local/lib/python2.x/dist-packages/
+
+For uninstalling, you'll need to remove the "cnotmuch-0.1-py2.x.egg"
+directory and delete one entry in the "easy-install.pth" file in that
+directory.

+It needs to have a libnotmuch.so or libnotmuch.so.1 available in some

+The notmuch 'binary'
+====================
+
+The cnotmuch module provides *notmuch*, a python reimplementation of the standard notmuch binary for two purposes: first, to allow running the standard notmuch testsuite over the cnotmuch bindings (for correctness and performance testing) and second, to give some examples as to how to use cnotmuch. 'Notmuch' provides a command line interface to your mail database.
+
+A standard install via `easy_install cnotmuch` will not install the notmuch binary, however it is available in the `cnotmuch source code repository <http://bitbucket.org/spaetz/cnotmuch/src/>`_.
+
+
+It is invoked with the following pattern: `notmuch <command> [args...]`.
+
+Where <command> and [args...] are as follows:
+
+  **setup**	Interactively setup notmuch for first use.
+                This has not yet been implemented, and will probably not be
+		implemented unless someone puts in the effort.
+
+  **new**	[--verbose]
+		Find and import new messages to the notmuch database.
+
+		This has not been implemented yet. We cheat by calling
+		the regular "notmuch" binary (which must be in your path
+		somewhere).
+
+  **search** [options...] <search-terms> [...]  Search for messages matching the given search terms.
+
+		This has been implemented but for the `--format` and
+		`--sort` options.
+
+  **show**	<search-terms> [...]
+		Show all messages matching the search terms.
+
+		This has been partially implemented, we show a stub for each 
+		found message, but do not output the full message body yet.
+
+  **count**	<search-terms> [...]
+		Count messages matching the search terms.
+
+		This has been fully implemented.
+
+  **reply**	[options...] <search-terms> [...]
+		Construct a reply template for a set of messages.
+
+		This has not been implemented yet.
+
+  **tag**	+<tag>|-<tag> [...] [--] <search-terms> [...]
+		Add/remove tags for all messages matching the search terms.
+
+		This has been fully implemented.
+
+  **dump**	[<filename>]
+		Create a plain-text dump of the tags for each message.
+
+		This has been fully implemented.
+  **restore**	<filename>
+		Restore the tags from the given dump file (see 'dump').
+
+		This has been fully implemented.
+
+  **search-tags**	[<search-terms> [...] ]
+		List all tags found in the database or matching messages.
+
+		This has been fully implemented.
+
+  **help**	[<command>]
+		This message, or more detailed help for the named command.
+
+		The 'help' page has been implemented, help for single
+		commands are missing though. Patches are welcome.
