23 ;;; Commentary:
25 ;; Manage temporary pulsing of faces and overlays.
27 ;; This is a temporal decoration technique where something is to be
28 ;; highlighted briefly. This adds a gentle pulsing style to the text
29 ;; decorated this way.
31 ;; The following are useful entry points:
33 ;; `pulse' - Cause `pulse-highlight-face' to shift toward background color.
34 ;; Assumes you are using a version of Emacs that supports pulsing.
37 ;; `pulse-momentary-highlight-one-line' - Pulse a single line at POINT.
38 ;; `pulse-momentary-highlight-region' - Pulse a region.
39 ;; `pulse-momentary-highlight-overlay' - Pulse an overlay.
40 ;; These three functions will just blink the specified area if
41 ;; the version of Emacs you are using doesn't support pulsing.
43 ;; `pulse-line-hook-function' - A simple function that can be used in a
44 ;; hook that will pulse whatever line the cursor is on.
46 ;;; History:
48 ;; The original pulse code was written for semantic tag highlighting.
49 ;; It has been extracted, and adapted for general purpose pulsing.
51 ;; Pulse is a part of CEDET. http://cedet.sf.net
