- <b>--uuid=HEX</b>

All global options except <b>--config</b> can also be specified after the com‐
mand. For example, <b>notmuch</b> <b>subcommand</b> <b>--uuid=HEX</b> is equivalent to <b>not-</b>
the external <b>notmuch-<subcommand></b> in ${PATH} instead. This allows users
to have their own notmuch related tools to be run via the notmuch com‐
mand. By design, this does not allow notmuch's own commands to be over‐
- riden using external commands.
