NAME
mu-remove - remove messages from the database.
SYNOPSIS
mu [common-options] remove [options] <file> [<files>]
DESCRIPTION
mu remove removes specific messages from the database, each of them specified by their filename. The files do not have to exist in the file system.
REMOVE OPTIONS
--muhome
use a non-default directory to store and read the database,
write the logs, etc. By default, mu uses the XDG Base
Directory Specification (e.g. on GNU/Linux this defaults to
~/.cache/mu and ~/.config/mu). Earlier
versions of mu defaulted to ~/.mu, which now
requires --muhome=~/.mu.
The environment variable MUHOME can be used as an alternative to --muhome. The latter has precedence.
COMMON OPTIONS
-d,
--debug
makes mu generate extra debug information, useful for
debugging the program itself. By default, debug information
goes to the log file, ~/.cache/mu/mu.log. It can safely be
deleted when mu is not running. When running with --debug
option, the log file can grow rather quickly. See the note
on logging below.
-q,
--quiet
causes mu not to output informational messages and progress
information to standard output, but only to the log file.
Error messages will still be sent to standard error. Note
that mu index is much faster with --quiet, so it is
recommended you use this option when using mu from scripts
etc.
--log-stderr
causes mu to not output log messages to standard error, in
addition to sending them to the log file.
--nocolor
do not use ANSI colors. The environment variable
NO_COLOR can be used as an alternative to
--nocolor.
-V,
--version
prints mu version and copyright information.
-h,
--help
lists the various command line options.
