25 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;; This package prints name of function where your current point is
28 ;; located in mode line. It assumes that you work with imenu package
29 ;; and imenu--index-alist is up to date.
31 ;; KNOWN BUGS
32 ;; ----------
33 ;; Really this package shows not "function where the current point is
34 ;; located now", but "nearest function which defined above the current
35 ;; point". So if your current point is located after end of function
36 ;; FOO but before begin of function BAR, FOO will be displayed in mode
37 ;; line.
39 ;; TODO LIST
40 ;; ---------
41 ;; 1. Dependence on imenu package should be removed. Separate
42 ;; function determination mechanism should be used to determine the end
43 ;; of a function as well as the beginning of a function.
44 ;; 2. This package should be realized with the help of overlay
45 ;; properties instead of imenu--index-alist variable.
47 ;;; History:
49 ;; THANKS TO
50 ;; ---------
51 ;; Per Abrahamsen <abraham@iesd.auc.dk>
52 ;; Some ideas (inserting in mode-line, using of post-command hook
53 ;; and toggling this mode) have been borrowed from his package
54 ;; column.el
55 ;; Peter Eisenhauer <pipe@fzi.de>
56 ;; Bug fixing in case nested indexes.
57 ;; Terry Tateyama <ttt@ursa0.cs.utah.edu>
58 ;; Suggestion to use find-file-hooks for first imenu
59 ;; index building.
