27 ;;; Commentary:
29 ;; A very concise language extension for writing structured statement
30 ;; skeleton insertion commands for programming language modes. This
31 ;; originated in shell-script mode and was applied to ada-mode's
32 ;; commands which shrunk to one third. And these commands are now
33 ;; user configurable.
35 ;;; Code:
37 ;; page 1: statement skeleton language definition & interpreter
38 ;; page 2: paired insertion
39 ;; page 3: mirror-mode, an example for setting up paired insertion

184 "Insert the complex statement skeleton SKELETON describes very concisely.
186 With optional second argument REGIONS, wrap first interesting point
187 \(`_') in skeleton around next REGIONS words, if REGIONS is positive.
188 If REGIONS is negative, wrap REGIONS preceding interregions into first
189 REGIONS interesting positions \(successive `_'s) in skeleton.
191 An interregion is the stretch of text between two contiguous marked
192 points. If you marked A B C [] (where [] is the cursor) in
193 alphabetical order, the 3 interregions are simply the last 3 regions.
194 But if you marked B A [] C, the interregions are B-A, A-[], []-C.
196 The optional third argument STR, if specified, is the value for the
197 variable `str' within the skeleton. When this is non-nil, the
198 interactor gets ignored, and this should be a valid skeleton element.
200 SKELETON is made up as (INTERACTOR ELEMENT ...). INTERACTOR may be nil if
201 not needed, a prompt-string or an expression for complex read functions.
203 If ELEMENT is a string or a character it gets inserted (see also
204 `skeleton-transformation-function'). Other possibilities are:
206 \\n go to next line and indent according to mode
207 _ interesting point, interregion here
208 - interesting point, no interregion interaction, overrides
209 interesting point set by _
210 > indent line (or interregion if > _) according to major mode
211 @ add position to `skeleton-positions'
212 & do next ELEMENT iff previous moved point
213 | do next ELEMENT iff previous didn't move point
214 -num delete num preceding characters (see `skeleton-untabify')
215 resume: skipped, continue here if quit is signaled
216 nil skipped
218 After termination, point will be positioned at the last occurrence of -
219 or at the first occurrence of _ or at the end of the inserted text.
221 Further elements can be defined via `skeleton-further-elements'. ELEMENT may
222 itself be a SKELETON with an INTERACTOR. The user is prompted repeatedly for
223 different inputs. The SKELETON is processed as often as the user enters a
224 non-empty string. \\[keyboard-quit] terminates skeleton insertion, but
225 continues after `resume:' and positions at `_' if any. If INTERACTOR in such
226 a subskeleton is a prompt-string which contains a \".. %s ..\" it is
227 formatted with `skeleton-subprompt'. Such an INTERACTOR may also be a list of
228 strings with the subskeleton being repeated once for each string.
230 Quoted Lisp expressions are evaluated for their side-effects.
231 Other Lisp expressions are evaluated and the value treated as above.
232 Note that expressions may not return t since this implies an
233 endless loop. Modes can define other symbols by locally setting them
234 to any valid skeleton element. The following local variables are
235 available:
237 str first time: read a string according to INTERACTOR
238 then: insert previously read string once more
239 help help-form during interaction with the user or nil
240 input initial input (string or cons with index) while reading str
241 v1, v2 local variables for memorizing anything you want
243 When done with skeleton, but before going back to `_'-point call
