  27 ;;; Commentary:
  28
  29 ;; This library provides a minor mode to display a ruler in the header
  30 ;; line.  It works from Emacs 21 onwards.
  31 ;;
  32 ;; You can use the mouse to change the `fill-column' `comment-column',
  33 ;; `goal-column', `window-margins' and `tab-stop-list' settings:
  34 ;;
  35 ;; [header-line (shift down-mouse-1)] set left margin end to the ruler
  36 ;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
  37 ;;
  38 ;; [header-line (shift down-mouse-3)] set right margin beginning to
  39 ;; the ruler graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
  40 ;;
  41 ;; [header-line down-mouse-2] Drag the `fill-column', `comment-column'
  42 ;; or `goal-column' to a ruler graduation.
  43 ;;
  44 ;; [header-line (control down-mouse-1)] add a tab stop to the ruler
  45 ;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
  46 ;;
  47 ;; [header-line (control down-mouse-3)] remove the tab stop at the
  48 ;; ruler graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
  49 ;;
  50 ;; [header-line (control down-mouse-2)] or M-x
  51 ;; `ruler-mode-toggle-show-tab-stops' toggle showing and visually
  52 ;; editing `tab-stop-list' setting.  The `ruler-mode-show-tab-stops'
  53 ;; option controls if the ruler shows tab stops by default.
  54 ;;
  55 ;; In the ruler the character `ruler-mode-current-column-char' shows
  56 ;; the `current-column' location, `ruler-mode-fill-column-char' shows
  57 ;; the `fill-column' location, `ruler-mode-comment-column-char' shows
  58 ;; the `comment-column' location, `ruler-mode-goal-column-char' shows
  59 ;; the `goal-column' and `ruler-mode-tab-stop-char' shows tab stop
  60 ;; locations.  Graduations in `window-margins' and `window-fringes'
  61 ;; areas are shown with a different foreground color.
  62 ;;
  63 ;; It is also possible to customize the following characters:
  64 ;;
  65 ;; - `ruler-mode-basic-graduation-char' character used for basic
  66 ;;   graduations ('.' by default).
  67 ;; - `ruler-mode-inter-graduation-char' character used for
  68 ;;   intermediate graduations ('!' by default).
  69 ;;
  70 ;; The following faces are customizable:
  71 ;;
  72 ;; - `ruler-mode-default' the ruler default face.
  73 ;; - `ruler-mode-fill-column' the face used to highlight the
  74 ;;   `fill-column' character.
  75 ;; - `ruler-mode-comment-column' the face used to highlight the
  76 ;;   `comment-column' character.
  77 ;; - `ruler-mode-goal-column' the face used to highlight the
  78 ;;   `goal-column' character.
  79 ;; - `ruler-mode-current-column' the face used to highlight the
  80 ;;   `current-column' character.
  81 ;; - `ruler-mode-tab-stop' the face used to highlight tab stop
  82 ;;   characters.
  83 ;; - `ruler-mode-margins' the face used to highlight graduations
  84 ;;   in the `window-margins' areas.
  85 ;; - `ruler-mode-fringes' the face used to highlight graduations
  86 ;;   in the `window-fringes' areas.
  87 ;; - `ruler-mode-column-number' the face used to highlight the
  88 ;;   numbered graduations.
  89 ;;
  90 ;; `ruler-mode-default' inherits from the built-in `default' face.
  91 ;; All `ruler-mode' faces inherit from `ruler-mode-default'.
  92 ;;
  93 ;; WARNING: To keep ruler graduations aligned on text columns it is
  94 ;; important to use the same font family and size for ruler and text
  95 ;; areas.
  96 ;;
  97 ;; You can override the ruler format by defining an appropriate
  98 ;; function as the buffer-local value of `ruler-mode-ruler-function'.
  99
 100 ;; Installation
 101 ;;
 102 ;; To automatically display the ruler in specific major modes use:
 103 ;;
 104 ;;    (add-hook '<major-mode>-hook 'ruler-mode)
