✨ GMI(1) — the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, settle in, because GMI(1) is about to become your new obsession 💖 it's a User Command, and honestly? it ate.

🌸 NAME 🌸

gmi — fast fetch and two-way tag synchronization between notmuch and GMail 🦋

🌟 SYNOPSIS 🌟

so here's the whole vibe. this program can pull email and labels (and changes to labels, yes, the changes too 👀) from your GMail account and store them locally in a maildir, with the labels synchronized with a notmuch database. and then — and this is the iconic part — the changes to tags in the notmuch database may be pushed back remotely to your GMail account 🫶

but listen. it will not and it can not:

  • Add or delete messages on your remote account 💀
  • Modify messages other than their labels 🙈

that's the whole deal. know your limits, periodt.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

usage line, verbatim, no cap:

gmi [-h] {pull,push,send,sync,auth,init,set} ...

ngl bestie, that's the whole page. short, sweet, and it does exactly what it says on the tin 💜
