24 ;;; Commentary:
26 ;; Provides a mode where paragraphs are refilled after changes in them
27 ;; (using `after-change-functions'). This gives something akin to typical
28 ;; word processor-style filling. We restrict refilling due to
29 ;; self-insertion to the characters which trigger auto-fill.
31 ;; It partly satisfies a todo item in enriched.el for some value of
32 ;; `without slowing down editing too much'. It doesn't attempt to do
33 ;; anything (using `window-size-change-functions'?) about resizing
34 ;; windows -- who cares?
36 ;; This implementation is probably fragile and missing some special
37 ;; cases -- not extensively tested. Yanking paragraph breaks, for
38 ;; instance, won't DTRT by refilling all the relevant paragraphs.
40 ;; You could do it a bit more efficiently (and robustly?) with just an
41 ;; auto-fill function, but that doesn't cope with changes other than
42 ;; through self-insertion. (Using auto-fill and after-change
43 ;; functions together didn't seem winning.) This could probably
44 ;; benefit from a less-general and faster `fill-paragraph-function',
45 ;; ideally as a primitive.
47 ;; The work is done in a local post-command hook but only if
48 ;; `refill-doit' has been set by the after-change function. Using
49 ;; `post-command-hook' ensures simply that refilling only happens
50 ;; once per command.
52 ;; [Per Abrahamsen's maniac.el does a similar thing, but operates from
53 ;; post-command-hook. I don't understand the statement in it that
54 ;; after-change-functions don't work for this purpose; perhaps there was
55 ;; some Emacs bug at the time. ISTR maniac has problems with
56 ;; whitespace at the end of paragraphs.]
58 ;;; Todo/Bugs:
60 ;; - When deleting the first word on a line, the space after that word tends
61 ;; to become part of the fill-prefix, causing either wrong filling of the
62 ;; remaining text, or causing the cursor to move unexpectedly. Ex:
63 ;; Start with
64 ;; I>< blabla
66 ;; and hit backspace. We end up with
68 ;; ><blabla
69 ;; instead of
70 ;; >< blabla
72 ;; Other example. Start with
74 ;; Foo bar blablabla asdgf
75 ;; word>< asdfas dfasdfasd
76 ;; asd asdfa sdfasd sdf
78 ;; and hit M-backspace. We end up with
80 ;; Foo bar blablabla asdgf
81 ;; ><asdfas dfasdfasd asd
82 ;; asdfa sdfasd sdf
