                          I've had Neomutt setup and working great for a while now but at some point I started seeing an error on launch that I'd like to finally fix. The error says:

    Error in /home/amanda/.config/neomutt/neomuttrc, line 23: 
    Binding '\\' will alias '\'  Before, try: 'bind pager \ noop'  https://neomutt.org/guide/configuration.html#bind-warnings 
    Warning in /home/amanda/.config/neomutt/neomuttrc, line 24: 
    source: errors in /home/amanda/.config/neomutt/neomuttrc


My goal is to have \\ open a notmuch query to search my whole mail directory, while / just searches the list or query that is open (so if I'm looking at INBOX, / will open a prompt to search my INBOX and \\ will open a prompt to search all mail. 

The error suggests adding bind pager \ noop but line 23 says exactly that. 

What is the right way to set my neomuttrc so that \\ opens a query prompt? 

My complete neomuttrc file in case there's something else I'm missing:

    source ~/.config/neomutt/pass.sh|
    
    set smtp_url = "smtp://myself@example.com@mail.example.com:587/"
    set smtp_pass = $my_pass
    set ssl_force_tls = yes
    
    set from = "myself@velociraptor.info"
    set realname = "Myself"
    
    set signature = "~/.config/neomutt/signature"
    set status_format = "%n new | %M in %f [%v]."
    set xterm_set_titles = yes
    
    # notmuch
    set nm_default_uri="notmuch:///home/myself/Mail" # path to the maildir
    set spoolfile = ~/Mail/INBOX
    set record = ~/Mail/INBOX.Sent
    set postponed = ~/Mail/INBOX.Drafts
    set mbox_type = Maildir
    set folder = ~/Mail/
    
    # notmuch bindings
    bind pager \ noop
    macro index,pager \\\\ ""              # looks up a hand made query
    macro index A "+archive -unread -inbox\\n"        # tag as Archived
    macro index I "-inbox -unread\\n"                 # removed from inbox
    macro index S "-inbox -unread +junk\\n" # tag as Junk mail
    macro index + "+*\\n"               # tag as starred
    macro index - "-*\\n"               # tag as unstarred
    
    # macro pager ` 
    
    # ctrl u searches for URLs
    macro pager \cu |urlview\n
    
    # Remap bounce-message function to “B”
    bind index B bounce-message
    
    
    # show the year via http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/mutt/manual-6.html#index_format 
    set index_format = "%4C %Z %{%b %d %Y} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s"
    
    ## Save Hooks
    save-hook '~s [Rr]eceipt' =INBOX.receipts
    save-hook '~s order\ confirmation' =INBOX.receipts
    save-hook '~s authorized\ a\ payment' =INBOX.receipts
    save-hook '~e Venmo' =INBOX.receipts
    save-hook .         =INBOX.Archives.%[%Y]
    ## Addressing
    macro pager,index a "khard add-email" "add the sender address to khard"
    
    set query_command= "khard email --parsable %s"
    bind editor  complete-query
    bind editor ^T    complete
    
    
    set mailcap_path = ~/.config/mailcap
    set print_command="/home/amanda/.config/neomutt/print_unicode.sh"
