26 ;;; Commentary:
28 ;; This file provides folding editor extensions for outline-mode and
29 ;; outline-minor-mode buffers. What's a "folding editor"? Read on...
31 ;; Imagine you're in an outline-mode buffer and you've hidden all the text and
32 ;; subheadings under your level-1 headings. You now want to look at the stuff
33 ;; hidden under one of these headings. Normally you'd do C-c C-e (show-entry)
34 ;; to expose the body or C-c C-i to expose the child (level-2) headings.
36 ;; With foldout, you do C-c C-z (foldout-zoom-subtree). This exposes the body
37 ;; and child subheadings and narrows the buffer so that only the level-1
38 ;; heading, the body and the level-2 headings are visible. If you now want to
39 ;; look under one of the level-2 headings, position the cursor on it and do C-c
40 ;; C-z again. This exposes the level-2 body and its level-3 child subheadings
41 ;; and narrows the buffer again. You can keep on zooming in on successive
42 ;; subheadings as much as you like. A string in the mode line tells you how
43 ;; deep you've gone.
45 ;; When zooming in on a heading you might only want to see the child
46 ;; subheadings. You do this by specifying a numeric argument: C-u C-c C-z.
47 ;; You can specify the number of levels of children too (c.f. show-children):
48 ;; e.g. M-2 C-c C-z exposes two levels of child subheadings. Alternatively,
49 ;; you might only be interested in the body. You do this by specifying a
50 ;; negative argument: M-- C-c C-z. You can also cause the whole subtree to be
51 ;; expanded, similar to C-c C-s (show-subtree), by specifying a zero argument:
52 ;; M-0 C-c C-z.
54 ;; While you're zoomed in you can still use outline-mode's exposure and hiding
55 ;; functions. It won't upset foldout at all. Also, since the buffer is
56 ;; narrowed, "global" editing actions will only affect the stuff under the
57 ;; zoomed-in heading. This is useful for restricting changes to a particular
58 ;; chapter or section of your document.
60 ;; You unzoom (exit) a fold by doing C-c C-x (foldout-exit-fold). This hides
61 ;; all the text and subheadings under the top-level heading and returns you to
62 ;; the previous view of the buffer. Specifying a numeric argument exits that
63 ;; many folds. Specifying a zero argument exits *all* folds.
65 ;; You might want to exit a fold *without* hiding the text and subheadings.
66 ;; You do this by specifying a negative argument. For example, M--2 C-c C-x
67 ;; exits two folds and leaves the text and subheadings exposed.
69 ;; Foldout also provides mouse bindings for entering and exiting folds and for
70 ;; showing and hiding text. Hold down Meta and Control, then click a mouse
71 ;; button as follows:-
73 ;; mouse-1 (foldout-mouse-zoom) zooms in on the heading clicked on:-
75 ;; single click expose body
76 ;; double click expose subheadings
77 ;; triple click expose body and subheadings
78 ;; quad click expose entire subtree
80 ;; mouse-2 (foldout-mouse-show) exposes text under the heading clicked on:-
82 ;; single click expose body
83 ;; double click expose subheadings
84 ;; triple click expose body and subheadings
85 ;; quad click expose entire subtree
87 ;; mouse-3 (foldout-mouse-hide-or-exit) hides text under the heading clicked
88 ;; on or exits the fold:-
90 ;; single click hide subtree
91 ;; double click exit fold and hide text
92 ;; triple click exit fold without hiding text
93 ;; quad click exit all folds and hide text
95 ;; You can change the modifier keys used by setting `foldout-mouse-modifiers'.
97 ;;; Installation:
99 ;; To use foldout, put this in your .emacs:-
101 ;; (require 'foldout)
103 ;; If you don't want it loaded until you need it, try this instead:-
105 ;; (eval-after-load "outline" '(require 'foldout))
107 ;;; Advertisements:
109 ;; Get out-xtra.el by Per Abrahamsen <abraham@iesd.auc.dk> for more
110 ;; outline-mode goodies. In particular, `outline-hide-sublevels' makes
111 ;; setup a lot easier.
113 ;; folding.el by Jamie Lokier <u90jl@ecs.ox.ac.uk> supports folding by
114 ;; recognizing special marker text in you file.
116 ;; c-outline.el (by me) provides outline-mode support to recognize `C'
117 ;; statements as outline headings, so with foldout you can have a folding `C'
118 ;; code editor without having to put in start- and end-of-fold markers. This
119 ;; is a real winner!
121 ;;; ChangeLog:
123 ;; 1.10 21-Mar-94
124 ;; foldout.el is now part of the GNU Emacs distribution!!
125 ;; Put in changes made by RMS to version 1.8 to keep the diffs to a minimum.
126 ;; bugfix: numeric arg to foldout-exit-fold wasn't working - looks like I don't
127 ;; know how to use the Common LISP `loop' macro after all, so use `while'
128 ;; instead.
130 ;; 1.9 15-Mar-94
131 ;; Didn't test that very well, did I? The change to foldout-zoom-subtree
132 ;; affected foldout-mouse-zoom: if the heading under the `level n' one clicked
133 ;; on was at `level n+2' then it didn't get exposed. Sorry about that!
135 ;; 1.8 15-Mar-94
136 ;; Changed meaning of prefix arg to foldout-zoom-subtree. arg > 0 now means
137 ;; "expose that many children" instead of just "expose children" so it is more
138 ;; like `show-children' (C-c C-i). Arg of C-u on its own only shows one level
139 ;; of children, though, so you can still zoom by doing C-u C-c C-z.
141 ;; I can't think of a good meaning for the value of a negative prefix. Any
142 ;; suggestions?
144 ;; Added advertisement for my c-outline.el package. Now you can have a folding
145 ;; editor for c-mode without any effort!
147 ;; 1.7 7-Mar-94
148 ;; I got fed up trying to work out how many blank lines there were outside the
149 ;; narrowed region when inside a fold. Now *all* newlines before the following
150 ;; heading are *in* the narrowed region. Thus, if the cursor is at point-max,
151 ;; the number of blank lines above it is the number you'll get above the next
152 ;; heading.
154 ;; Since all newlines are now inside the narrowed region, when exiting a fold
155 ;; add a newline at the end of the region if there isn't one so that the
156 ;; following heading doesn't accidentally get joined to the body text.
158 ;; Bugfix: `foldout-mouse-modifiers' should be `defvar', not `defconst'.
160 ;; Use "cond" instead of "case" so that lemacs-19.9 users can use the mouse.
162 ;; Improve "Commentary" entry on using the mouse.
164 ;; Add "Installation" keyword.
166 ;; 1.6 3-Mar-94
167 ;; Add mouse support functions foldout-mouse-zoom, foldout-mouse-show,
168 ;; foldout-mouse-hide-or-exit.
170 ;; 1.5 11-Feb-94
171 ;; Rename `foldout-enter-subtree' to `foldout-zoom-subtree' and change
172 ;; keystroke from C-g to C-z. This is more mnemonic and leaves C-g alone, as
173 ;; users expect this to cancel the current key sequence.
175 ;; Added better commentary at the request of RMS. Added stuff to comply with
176 ;; the lisp-mnt.el conventions. Added instructions on how best to load the
177 ;; package.
179 ;; 1.4 2-Feb-94
180 ;; Bugfix: end-of-fold marking was wrong:-
182 ;; End of narrowed region should be one character on from
183 ;; (outline-end-of-subtree) so it includes the end-of-line at the end of the
184 ;; last line of the subtree.
186 ;; End-of-fold marker should be outside the narrowed region so text inserted
187 ;; at the end of the region goes before the marker. Need to make a special
188 ;; case for end-of-buffer because it is impossible to set a marker that will
189 ;; follow eob. Bummer.
191 ;; 1.3 28-Jan-94
192 ;; Changed `foldout-zoom-subtree'. A zero arg now makes it expose the entire
193 ;; subtree on entering the fold. As before, < 0 shows only the body and > 0
194 ;; shows only the subheadings.
196 ;; 1.2 28-Jan-94
197 ;; Fixed a dumb bug - didn't make `foldout-mode-line-string' buffer-local :-(
199 ;; Changed `foldout-exit-fold' to use prefix arg to say how many folds to exit.
200 ;; Negative arg means exit but don't hide text. Zero arg means exit all folds.
202 ;; Added `foldout-inhibit-key-bindings' to inhibit key bindings.
204 ;; 1.1 27-Jan-94
205 ;; Released to the net. Inspired by a question in gnu.emacs.help from
206 ;; Jason D Lohn <jlohn@eng.umd.edu>.
