24 ;; Manage temporary pulsing of faces and overlays.
26 ;; This is a temporal decoration technique where something is to be
27 ;; highlighted briefly. This adds a gentle pulsing style to the text
28 ;; decorated this way.
30 ;; The following are useful entry points:
32 ;; `pulse' - Cause `pulse-highlight-face' to shift toward background color.
33 ;; Assumes you are using a version of Emacs that supports pulsing.
36 ;; `pulse-momentary-highlight-one-line' - Pulse a single line at POINT.
37 ;; `pulse-momentary-highlight-region' - Pulse a region.
38 ;; `pulse-momentary-highlight-overlay' - Pulse an overlay
39 ;; These three functions will just blink the specified area if
40 ;; the version of Emacs you are using doesn't support pulsing.
42 ;; `pulse-line-hook-function' - A simple function that can be used in a
43 ;; hook that will pulse whatever line the cursor is on.
47 ;; The original pulse code was written for semantic tag highlighting.
48 ;; It has been extracted, and adapted for general purpose pulsing.
50 ;; Pulse is a part of CEDET. http://cedet.sf.net
