46 ;;; Quick Installation und Customization:
50 ;; for buffer selection or optional bind a key to main function `bs-show'
51 ;; (global-set-key "\C-x\C-b" 'bs-show) ;; or another key
53 ;; For customization use
59 ;; bs-show will generate a new buffer named *buffer-selection*, which shows
60 ;; all buffers or a subset of them, and has possibilities for deleting,
61 ;; saving and selecting buffers. For more details see docstring of
62 ;; function `bs-mode'. A current configuration describes which buffers appear
63 ;; in *buffer-selection*. See docstring of variable `bs-configurations' for
66 ;; The package bs combines the advantages of the Emacs functions
67 ;; `list-buffers' and `electric-buffer-list'.
69 ;; Additional features for Buffer Selection Menu:
70 ;; - configurable list of buffers (show only files etc.).
71 ;; - comfortable way to change displayed subset of all buffers.
72 ;; - show sorted list of buffers.
73 ;; - cyclic navigation:
74 ;; - goes to top of buffer list if you are on last line and press down.
75 ;; - goes to end of buffer list if you are on first line and press up.
76 ;; - Offer an alternative buffer list by prefix key C-u.
78 ;;; Cycling through buffers
80 ;; This package offers two functions for buffer cycling. If you want to cycle
81 ;; through buffer list you can use `bs-cycle-next' or `bs-cycle-previous'.
82 ;; Bind these function to a key like
83 ;; (global-set-key [(f9)] 'bs-cycle-previous)
84 ;; (global-set-key [(f10)] 'bs-cycle-next)
86 ;; Both functions use a special subset of all buffers for cycling to avoid
87 ;; to go through internal buffers like *Messages*.
89 ;; Cycling through buffers ignores sorting because sorting destroys
90 ;; the logical buffer list. If buffer list is sorted by size you
91 ;; won't be able to cycle to the smallest buffer.
95 ;; There is a customization group called `bs' in group `convenience'.
96 ;; Start customization by M-x bs-customize
100 ;; You can define your own configurations by extending variable
101 ;; `bs-configurations' (see docstring for details).
103 ;; `bs-default-configuration' contains the name of default configuration.
104 ;; The default value is "files" which means to show only files.
106 ;; If you always want to see all buffers, customize variable
107 ;; `bs-default-configuration' in customization group `bs'.
111 ;; You can define functions for sorting the buffer list.
112 ;; When selecting buffers, you can step through available sorting
113 ;; methods with key 'S'.
114 ;; To define a new way of sorting, customize variable `bs-sort-functions'.
116 ;; There are four basic functions for sorting:
117 ;; by buffer name, by mode, by size, or by filename
119 ;; Configure buffer cycling
120 ;; ------------------------
121 ;; When cycling through buffer list the functions for cycling will use
122 ;; the current configuration of bs to calculate the buffer list.
123 ;; If you want to use a different configuration for cycling you have to set
124 ;; the variable `bs-cycle-configuration-name'. You can customize this variable.
126 ;; For example: If you use the configuration called "files-and-scratch" you
127 ;; can cycle through all file buffers and *scratch* although your current
128 ;; configuration perhaps is "files" which ignores buffer *scratch*.
