e.g.:

${num_mails_in_thread} ${subject} ${from} ${tags} ${timestamp}

or maybe make the search view column based as well (cf issue #18) and make the order of the columns configurable?

Damn you and your columns! :P

I think that configuring the order of the widgets in threadlines could be don with something like
a custom markdown syntax. For instance, a config option threadline_display could look like

threadline_display = <timestamp> <taglist> <authors> <subject> <body>

We'd have to define these keywords and read and respect the config in widgets.ThreadlineWidget
Go for it :)

yeah, actually I don't like that idea that much anymore. I think swappable columns is what /me really wants! duckcover*
I'm afraid I'm really into that whole alignment stuff sry :/

right, but 'swappable columns' would have to be defined in a similar manner. cf. the displayed_headers option

possibly a better idea is to format this with a hook that takes a dict of possible colums
(name->widget) and sorts it to a list, maybe add a fixed width integer.. like this:

#user defined format hook
def threadline_format(columns, **kwargs):
    return [
       ( columns['timestamp'], 10, 10, 0)  # timestamp widget, min width=10, max width=10, no weight
       ( columns['tags'], 0, -1, 0.5, 0)  # no min width, max width=-1 (as much as needed), no weight
       ( columns['authors'], 0, None, 0.5)  # no min or max width, takes half of remaining space
       ( columns['subject'], 0, None, 0.5)  # takes other half of remaining space
    ]

actually something like this can be simulated with fixed width fields in threadline theming (see e.g. th 'mutt' theme in the extras). I'm closing this here.
