32
33 ;; `Follow mode' is a minor mode for Emacs and XEmacs that
34 ;; combines windows into one tall virtual window.
35 ;;
36 ;; The feeling of a "virtual window" has been accomplished by the use
37 ;; of two major techniques:
38 ;;
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.)
42 ;;
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.
47 ;;
48 ;; Follow mode comes to its prime when 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 being able to use 144 lines instead of the normal 72... (your
53 ;; mileage may vary).
54
55
56 ;; The latest version, and a demonstration, are avaiable at:
57 ;;
58 ;; http://www.csd.uu.se/~andersl/emacs.shtml
59
60
61 ;; To test this package, make sure `follow' is loaded, or will be
62 ;; autoloaded when activated (see below). Then do the following:
63 ;;
64 ;; * Find your favorite file (preferably a long one).
65 ;;
66 ;; * Resize Emacs so that it will be wide enough for two full size
67 ;; columns. Delete the other windows and split the window with
68 ;; the commands `C-x 1 C-x 3'.
69 ;;
70 ;; * Give the command:
71 ;; M-x follow-mode <RETURN>
72 ;;
73 ;; * Now the display should look something like (assuming the text "71"
74 ;; is on line 71):
75 ;;
76 ;; +----------+----------+
77 ;; |1 |73 |
78 ;; |2 |74 |
79 ;; |3 |75 |
80 ;; ... ...
81 ;; |71 |143 |
82 ;; |72 |144 |
83 ;; +----------+----------+
84 ;;
85 ;; As you can see, the right-hand window starts at line 73, the line
86 ;; immediately below the end of the left-hand window. As long as
87 ;; `follow-mode' is active, the two windows will follow eachother!
88 ;;
89 ;; * Play around and enjoy! Scroll one window and watch the other.
90 ;; Jump to the beginning or end. Press `Cursor down' at the last
91 ;; line of the left-hand window. Enter new lines into the
92 ;; text. Enter long lines spanning several lines, or several
93 ;; windows.
94 ;;
95 ;; * Should you find `Follow' mode annoying, just type
96 ;; M-x follow-mode <RETURN>
97 ;; to turn it off.
98
99
100 ;; The command `follow-delete-other-windows-and-split' maximises the
101 ;; visible area of the current buffer.
102 ;;
103 ;; I recommend adding it, and `follow-mode', to hotkeys in the global
104 ;; key map. To do so, add the following lines (replacing `[f7]' and
105 ;; `[f8]' with your favorite keys) to the init file:
106 ;;
107 ;; (global-set-key [f8] 'follow-mode)
108 ;; (global-set-key [f7] 'follow-delete-other-windows-and-split)
109
110
111 ;; There exists two system variables that controls the appearence of
112 ;; lines that are wider than the window containing them. The default
113 ;; is to truncate long lines whenever a window isn't as wide as the
114 ;; frame.
115 ;;
116 ;; To make sure lines are never truncated, please place the following
117 ;; lines in your init file:
118 ;;
119 ;; (setq truncate-lines nil)
120 ;; (setq truncate-partial-width-windows nil)
121
122
123 ;; Since the display of XEmacs is pixel-oriented, a line could be
124 ;; clipped in half at the bottom of the window.
125 ;;
126 ;; To make XEmacs avoid clipping (normal) lines, please place the
127 ;; following line in your init-file:
128 ;;
129 ;; (setq pixel-vertical-clip-threshold 30)
130
131
132 ;; The correct way to cofigurate Follow mode, or any other mode for
133 ;; that matter, is to create one (or more) function that does
134 ;; whatever you would like to do. The function is then added to
135 ;; a hook.
136 ;;
137 ;; When `Follow' mode is activated, functions stored in the hook
138 ;; `follow-mode-hook' are called. When it is deactivated
139 ;; `follow-mode-off-hook' is runed.
140 ;;
141 ;; The keymap `follow-key-map' contains key bindings activated by
142 ;; `follow-mode'.
143 ;;
144 ;; Example:
145 ;; (add-hook 'follow-mode-hook 'my-follow-mode-hook)
146 ;;
147 ;; (defun my-follow-mode-hook ()
148 ;; (define-key follow-mode-map "\C-ca" 'your-favorite-function)
149 ;; (define-key follow-mode-map "\C-cb" 'another-function))
150
151
152 ;; Usage:
153 ;;
154 ;; To activate issue the command "M-x follow-mode"
155 ;; and press return. To deactivate, do it again.
156 ;;
157 ;; The following is a list of commands useful when follow-mode is active.
158 ;;
159 ;; follow-scroll-up C-c . C-v
160 ;; Scroll text in a Follow Mode window chain up.
161 ;;
162 ;; follow-scroll-down C-c . v
163 ;; Like `follow-scroll-up', but in the other direction.
164 ;;
165 ;; follow-delete-other-windows-and-split C-c . 1
166 ;; Maximise the visible area of the current buffer,
167 ;; and enter Follow Mode. This is a very convenient
168 ;; way to start Follow Mode, hence it is recomended
169 ;; that this command is added to the global keymap.
170 ;;
171 ;; follow-recenter C-c . C-l
172 ;; Place the point in the center of the middle window,
173 ;; or a specified number of lines from either top or bottom.
174 ;;
175 ;; follow-switch-to-buffer C-c . b
176 ;; Switch buffer in all windows displaying the current buffer
177 ;; in this frame.
178 ;;
179 ;; follow-switch-to-buffer-all C-c . C-b
180 ;; Switch buffer in all windows in the active frame.
181 ;;
182 ;; follow-switch-to-current-buffer-all
183 ;; Show the current buffer in all windows on the current
184 ;; frame and turn on `follow-mode'.
185 ;;
186 ;; follow-first-window C-c . <
187 ;; Select the first window in the frame showing the same buffer.
188 ;;
189 ;; follow-last-window C-c . >
190 ;; Select the last window in the frame showing the same buffer.
191 ;;
192 ;; follow-next-window C-c . n
193 ;; Select the next window in the frame showing the same buffer.
194 ;;
195 ;; follow-previous-window C-c . p
196 ;; Select the previous window showing the same buffer.
197
198
199 ;; Well, it seems ok, but what if I really want to look at two different
200 ;; positions in the text? Here are two simple methods to use:
201 ;;
202 ;; 1) Use multiple frames; `follow' mode only affects windows displayed
203 ;; in the same frame. (My apoligies to you who can't use frames.)
204 ;;
205 ;; 2) Bind `follow-mode' to key so you can turn it off whenever
206 ;; you want to view two locations. Of course, `follow' mode can
207 ;; be reactivated by hitting the same key again.
208 ;;
209 ;; Example from my ~/.emacs:
210 ;; (global-set-key [f8] 'follow-mode)
211
212
213 ;; Implementation:
214 ;;
215 ;; In an ideal world, follow mode would have been implemented in the
216 ;; kernel of the display routines, making sure that the windows (using
217 ;; follow mode) ALWAYS are aligned. On planet earth, however, we must
218 ;; accept a solution where we ALMOST ALWAYS can make sure that the
219 ;; windows are aligned.
220 ;;
221 ;; Follow mode does this in three places:
222 ;; 1) After each user command.
223 ;; 2) After a process output has been perfomed.
224 ;; 3) When a scrollbar has been moved.
225 ;;
226 ;; This will cover most situations. (Let me know if there are other
227 ;; situations that should be covered.)
228 ;;
229 ;; Note that only the selected window is checked, for the reason of
230 ;; efficiency and code complexity. (I.e. it is possible to make a
231 ;; non-selected windows unaligned. It will, however, pop right back
232 ;; when it is selected.)

239
240 ;; Make the compiler shut up!
241 ;; There are two strategies:
242 ;; 1) Shut warnings off completely.
243 ;; 2) Handle each warning separately.
244 ;;
245 ;; Since I would like to see real errors, I've selected the latter
246 ;; method.
247 ;;
248 ;; The problem with undefined variables and functions has been solved
249 ;; by using `set', `symbol-value' and `symbol-function' rather than
250 ;; `setq' and direct references to variables and functions.
251 ;;
252 ;; For example:
253 ;; (if (boundp 'foo) ... (symbol-value 'foo) )
254 ;; (set 'foo ...) <-- XEmacs doesn't fall for this one.
255 ;; (funcall (symbol-function 'set) 'bar ...)
256 ;;
257 ;; Note: When this file is interpreted, `eval-when-compile' is
258 ;; evaluted. Since it doesn't hurt to evaluate it, but it is a bit
259 ;; annoying, we test if the byte-compiler has been loaded. This can,
260 ;; of course, lead to some occasional unintended evaluation...

639 "Minor mode that combines windows into one tall virtual window.
640
641 The feeling of a \"virtual window\" has been accomplished by the use
642 of two major techniques:
643
644 * The windows always displays adjacent sections of the buffer.
645 This means that whenever one window is moved, all the
646 others will follow. (Hence the name Follow Mode.)
647
648 * Should the point (cursor) end up outside a window, another
649 window displaying that point is selected, if possible. This
650 makes it possible to walk between windows using normal cursor
651 movement commands.
652
653 Follow mode comes to its prime when used on a large screen and two
654 side-by-side window are used. The user can, with the help of Follow
655 mode, use two full-height windows as though they would have been
656 one. Imagine yourself editing a large function, or section of text,
657 and being able to use 144 lines instead of the normal 72... (your
658 mileage may vary).
659
660 To split one large window into two side-by-side windows, the commands
661 `\\[split-window-horizontally]' or \
662 `M-x follow-delete-other-windows-and-split' can be used.
663
664 Only windows displayed in the same frame follow each-other.
665
666 If the variable `follow-intercept-processes' is non-nil, Follow mode
667 will listen to the output of processes and redisplay accordingly.
668 \(This is the default.)
