  26 ;; Reposition-window makes an entire function definition or comment visible,
  27 ;; or, if it is already visible, places it at the top of the window;
  28 ;; additional invocations toggle the visibility of comments preceding the
  29 ;; code.  For the gory details, see the documentation for reposition-window;
  30 ;; rather than reading that, you may just want to play with it.
  31
  32 ;; This tries pretty hard to do the recentering correctly; the precise
  33 ;; action depends on what the buffer looks like.  If you find a situation
  34 ;; where it doesn't behave well, let me know.  This function is modeled
  35 ;; after one of the same name in ZMACS, but the code is all-new and the
  36 ;; behavior in some situations differs.

  41 (defun reposition-window (&optional arg)
  42   "Make the current definition and/or comment visible.
  43 Further invocations move it to the top of the window or toggle the
  44 visibility of comments that precede it.
  45   Point is left unchanged unless prefix ARG is supplied.
  46   If the definition is fully onscreen, it is moved to the top of the
  47 window.  If it is partly offscreen, the window is scrolled to get the
  48 definition (or as much as will fit) onscreen, unless point is in a comment
  49 which is also partly offscreen, in which case the scrolling attempts to get
  50 as much of the comment onscreen as possible.
  51   Initially `reposition-window' attempts to make both the definition and
  52 preceding comments visible.  Further invocations toggle the visibility of
  53 the comment lines.
  54   If ARG is non-nil, point may move in order to make the whole defun
  55 visible (if only part could otherwise be made so), to make the defun line
  56 visible (if point is in code and it could not be made so, or if only
  57 comments, including the first comment line, are visible), or to make the
  58 first comment line visible (if point is in a comment)."
