  25 ;;; Commentary:
  26
  27 ;; This package provides the `view' minor mode documented in the Emacs
  28 ;; user's manual.
  29 ;; View mode entry and exit is done through the functions view-mode-enter
  30 ;; and view-mode-exit.  Use these functions to enter or exit view-mode from
  31 ;; emacs lisp programs.
  32 ;; We use both view- and View- as prefix for symbols.  View- is used as
  33 ;; prefix for commands that have a key binding.  view- is used for commands
  34 ;; without key binding.  The purpose of this is to make it easier for a
  35 ;; user to use command name completion.
  36
  37 ;;; Suggested key bindings:
  38 ;;
  39 ;; (define-key ctl-x-4-map "v" 'view-file-other-window)  ; ^x4v
  40 ;; (define-key ctl-x-5-map "v" 'view-file-other-frame)  ; ^x5v
  41 ;;
  42 ;; You could also bind view-file, view-buffer, view-buffer-other-window and
  43 ;; view-buffer-other-frame to keys.

 427 x       exchanges point and mark.
 428 \\[View-back-to-mark]   return to mark and pops mark ring.
 429           Mark ring is pushed at start of every successful search and when
 430           jump to line occurs.  The mark is set on jump to buffer start or end.
 431 \\[point-to-register]   save current position in character register.

 435 \\[View-search-regexp-forward]  searches forward for regular expression, starting after current page.
 436           ! and @ have a special meaning at the beginning of the regexp.
 437           ! means search for a line with no match for regexp.  @ means start
 438           search at beginning (end for backward search) of buffer.
 439 \\      searches backward for regular expression, starting before current page.
 440 \\[View-search-last-regexp-forward]     searches forward for last regular expression.
 441 p       searches backward for last regular expression.
 442 \\[View-quit]   quit View mode, restoring this window and buffer to previous state.
 443           \\[View-quit] is the normal way to leave view mode.
 444 \\[View-exit]   exit View mode but stay in current buffer.  Use this if you started
 445           viewing a buffer (file) and find out you want to edit it.
 446           This command restores the previous read-only status of the buffer.
 447 \\[View-exit-and-edit]  exit View mode, and make the current buffer editable
 448           even if it was not editable before entry to View mode.
 449 \\[View-quit-all]       quit View mode, restoring all windows to previous state.
 450 \\[View-leave]  quit View mode and maybe switch buffers, but don't kill this buffer.
 451 \\[View-kill-and-leave] quit View mode, kill current buffer and go back to other buffer.
 452
 453 The effect of \\[View-leave], \\[View-quit] and \\[View-kill-and-leave] depends on how view-mode was entered.  If it was
 454 entered by view-file, view-file-other-window, view-file-other-frame, or
 455 \\[dired-view-file] \(\\[view-file], \\[view-file-other-window],
 456 \\[view-file-other-frame], or the Dired mode v command),
 457 then \\[View-quit] will try to kill the current buffer.
 458 If view-mode was entered from another buffer, by \\[view-buffer],
 459 \\[view-buffer-other-window], \\[view-buffer-other frame], \\[view-file],
 460 \\[view-file-other-window], or \\[view-file-other-frame],
 461 then \\[View-leave], \\[View-quit] and \\[View-kill-and-leave] will return to that buffer.
