29 ;;; Commentary:
31 ;;{{{ Documentation
33 ;; `Follow mode' is a minor mode for Emacs 19 and XEmacs which
34 ;; combines windows into one tall virtual window.
36 ;; The feeling of a "virtual window" has been accomplished by the use
37 ;; of two major techniques:
39 ;; * The windows always displays adjacent sections of the buffer.
40 ;; This means that whenever one window is moved, all the
41 ;; others will follow. (Hence the name Follow Mode.)
43 ;; * Should the point (cursor) end up outside a window, another
44 ;; window displaying that point is selected, if possible. This
45 ;; makes it possible to walk between windows using normal cursor
46 ;; movement commands.
48 ;; Follow mode comes to its prime when used on a large screen and two
49 ;; side-by-side window are used. The user can, with the help of Follow
50 ;; mode, use two full-height windows as though they would have been
51 ;; one. Imagine yourself editing a large function, or section of text,
52 ;; and beeing able to use 144 lines instead of the normal 72... (your
53 ;; mileage may vary).
55 ;; The latest version, and a demonstration, are avaiable at:
57 ;; ftp://ftp.csd.uu.se/pub/users/andersl/emacs/follow.el
58 ;; http://www.csd.uu.se/~andersl/follow.shtml
60 ;; `Follow mode' can be used together with Emacs 19 and XEmacs.
61 ;; It has been tested together with Emacs 19.27, 19.28, 19.29,
62 ;; 19.30, XEmacs 19.12, and 19.13.
65 ;; To test this package, make sure `follow' is loaded, or will be
66 ;; autoloaded when activated (see below). Then do the following:
68 ;; * Find your favorite file (preferably a long one.)
70 ;; * Resize Emacs so that it will be wide enough for two full sized
71 ;; columns. Delete the other windows and split with the commands
72 ;; `C-x 1 C-x 3'.
74 ;; * Give the command:
75 ;; M-x follow-mode <RETURN>
77 ;; * Now the display should look something like (assuming the text "71"
78 ;; is on line 71):
80 ;; +----------+----------+
81 ;; |1 |73 |
82 ;; |2 |74 |
83 ;; |3 |75 |
84 ;; ... ...
85 ;; |71 |143 |
86 ;; |72 |144 |
87 ;; +----------+----------+
89 ;; As you can see, the right-hand window starts at line 73, the line
90 ;; immediately below the end of the left-hand window. As long as
91 ;; `follow-mode' is active, the two windows will follow eachother!
93 ;; * Play around and enjoy! Scroll one window and watch the other.
94 ;; Jump to the beginning or end. Press `Cursor down' at the last
95 ;; line of the left-hand window. Enter new lines into the
96 ;; text. Enter long lines spanning several lines, or several
97 ;; windows.
99 ;; * Should you find `Follow' mode annoying, just type
100 ;; M-x follow-mode <RETURN>
101 ;; to turn it off.
104 ;; Installation:
106 ;; To fully install this, add this file to your Emacs Lisp directory and
107 ;; compile it with M-x byte-compile-file. Then add the following to the
108 ;; appropriate init file (normally your `~/.emacs' file):
110 ;; (autoload 'follow-mode "follow"
111 ;; "Synchronize windows showing the same buffer, minor mode." t)
114 ;; The command `follow-delete-other-windows-and-split' maximises the
115 ;; visible area of the current buffer.
117 ;; I recommend adding it, and `follow-mode', to hotkeys in the global
118 ;; key map. To do so, add the following lines (replacing `[f7]' and
119 ;; `[f8]' with your favorite keys) to the init file:
121 ;; (autoload 'follow-mode "follow"
122 ;; "Synchronize windows showing the same buffer, minor mode." t)
123 ;; (global-set-key [f8] 'follow-mode)
125 ;; (autoload 'follow-delete-other-windows-and-split "follow"
126 ;; "Delete other windows, split the frame in two, and enter Follow Mode." t)
127 ;; (global-set-key [f7] 'follow-delete-other-windows-and-split)
130 ;; There exists two system variables which controls the appearence of
131 ;; lines which are wider than the window containing them. The default
132 ;; is to truncate long lines whenever a window isn't as wide as the
133 ;; frame.
135 ;; To make sure lines are never truncated, please place the following
136 ;; lines in your init file:
138 ;; (setq truncate-lines nil)
139 ;; (setq truncate-partial-width-windows nil)
142 ;; Since the display of XEmacs is pixel-oriented, a line could be
143 ;; clipped in half at the bottom of the window.
145 ;; To make XEmacs avoid clipping (normal) lines, please place the
146 ;; following line in your init-file:
148 ;; (setq pixel-vertical-clip-threshold 30)
151 ;; The correct way to cofigurate Follow mode, or any other mode for
152 ;; that matter, is to create one (or more) function which does
153 ;; whatever you would like to do. The function is then added to
154 ;; a hook.
156 ;; When `Follow' mode is activated, functions stored in the hook
157 ;; `follow-mode-hook' are called. When it is deactivated
158 ;; `follow-mode-off-hook' is runed.
160 ;; The keymap `follow-key-map' contains key bindings activated by
161 ;; `follow-mode'.
163 ;; Example:
164 ;; (add-hook 'follow-mode-hook 'my-follow-mode-hook)
166 ;; (defun my-follow-mode-hook ()
167 ;; (define-key follow-mode-map "\C-ca" 'your-favorite-function)
168 ;; (define-key follow-mode-map "\C-cb" 'another-function))
171 ;; Usage:
173 ;; To activate give the command: M-x follow-mode
174 ;; and press return. To deactivate, do it again.
176 ;; Some special commands have been developed to make life even easier:
177 ;; follow-scroll-up C-c . C-v
178 ;; Scroll text in a Follow Mode window chain up.
180 ;; follow-scroll-down C-c . v
181 ;; Like `follow-scroll-up', but in the other direction.
183 ;; follow-delete-other-windows-and-split C-c . 1
184 ;; Maximise the visible area of the current buffer,
185 ;; and enter Follow Mode. This is a very convenient
186 ;; way to start Follow Mode, hence it is recomended
187 ;; that this command is added to the global keymap.
189 ;; follow-recenter C-c . C-l
190 ;; Place the point in the center of the middle window,
191 ;; or a specified number of lines from either top or bottom.
193 ;; follow-switch-to-buffer C-c . b
194 ;; Switch buffer in all windows displaying the current buffer
195 ;; in this frame.
197 ;; follow-switch-to-buffer-all C-c . C-b
198 ;; Switch buffer in all windows in the active frame.
200 ;; follow-switch-to-current-buffer-all
201 ;; Show the current buffer in all windows on the current
202 ;; frame and turn on `follow-mode'.
204 ;; follow-first-window C-c . <
205 ;; Select the first window in the frame showing the same buffer.
207 ;; follow-last-window C-c . >
208 ;; Select the last window in the frame showing the same buffer.
210 ;; follow-next-window C-c . n
211 ;; Select the next window in the frame showing the same buffer.
213 ;; follow-previous-window C-c . p
214 ;; Select the previous window showing the same buffer.
217 ;; Well, it seems ok, but what if I really want to look at two different
218 ;; positions in the text? Here are two simple methods to use:
220 ;; 1) Use multiple frames; `follow' mode only affects windows displayed
221 ;; in the same frame. (My apoligies to you who can't use frames.)
223 ;; 2) Bind `follow-mode' to key so you can turn it off whenever
224 ;; you want to view two locations. Of course, `follow' mode can
225 ;; be reactivated by hitting the same key again.
227 ;; Example from my ~/.emacs:
228 ;; (global-set-key [f8] 'follow-mode)
231 ;; Implementation:
233 ;; In an ideal world, follow mode would have been implemented in the
234 ;; kernal of the display routines, making sure that the windows (in
235 ;; follow mode) ALWAYS are aligned. On planet earth, however, we must
236 ;; accept a solution where we ALMOST ALWAYS can make sure that the
237 ;; windows are aligned.
239 ;; Follow mode does this in three places:
240 ;; 1) After each user command.
241 ;; 2) After a process output has been perfomed.
242 ;; 3) When a scrollbar has been moved.
244 ;; This will cover most situations. (Let me know if there are other
245 ;; situations which should be covered.)
247 ;; However, only the selected window is checked, for the reason of
248 ;; efficiency and code complexity. (i.e. it is possible to make a
249 ;; non-selected windows unaligned. It will, however, pop right back
250 ;; when it is selected.)

328 ;;{{{ Preliminaries
330 ;; Make the compiler shut up!
331 ;; There are two strategies:
332 ;; 1) Shut warnings off completely.
333 ;; 2) Handle each warning separately.
335 ;; Since I would like to see real errors, I've selected the latter
336 ;; method.
338 ;; The problem with undefined variables and functions has been solved
339 ;; by using `set', `symbol-value' and `symbol-function' rather than
340 ;; `setq' and direct references to variables and functions.
342 ;; For example:
343 ;; (if (boundp 'foo) ... (symbol-value 'foo) )
344 ;; (set 'foo ...) <-- XEmacs doesn't fall for this one.
345 ;; (funcall (symbol-function 'set) 'bar ...)
347 ;; Note: When this file is interpreted, `eval-when-compile' is
348 ;; evaluted (really smart...) Since it doesn't hurt to evaluate it,
349 ;; but it is a bit annoying, we test if the byte-compiler has been
350 ;; loaded. This can, of course, lead to some occasional unintended
351 ;; evaluation...

714 "Minor mode which combines windows into one tall virtual window.
716 The feeling of a \"virtual window\" has been accomplished by the use
717 of two major techniques:
719 * The windows always displays adjacent sections of the buffer.
720 This means that whenever one window is moved, all the
721 others will follow. (Hence the name Follow Mode.)
723 * Should the point (cursor) end up outside a window, another
724 window displaying that point is selected, if possible. This
725 makes it possible to walk between windows using normal cursor
726 movement commands.
728 Follow mode comes to its prime when used on a large screen and two
729 side-by-side window are used. The user can, with the help of Follow
730 mode, use two full-height windows as though they would have been
731 one. Imagine yourself editing a large function, or section of text,
732 and beeing able to use 144 lines instead of the normal 72... (your
733 mileage may vary).
735 To split one large window into two side-by-side windows, the commands
736 `\\[split-window-horizontally]' or \
737 `M-x follow-delete-other-windows-and-split' can be used.
739 Only windows displayed in the same frame follow each-other.
741 If the variable `follow-intercept-processes' is non-nil, Follow mode
742 will listen to the output of processes and redisplay accordingly.
743 \(This is the default.)
745 When Follow mode is switched on, the hook `follow-mode-hook'
