26 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;;
28 ;; The Emacs Lisp manual has a nice chapter on how to write
29 ;; documentation strings. Many stylistic suggestions are fairly
30 ;; deterministic and easy to check for syntactically, but also easy
31 ;; to forget. The main checkdoc engine will perform the stylistic
32 ;; checks needed to make sure these styles are remembered.
33 ;;
34 ;; There are two ways to use checkdoc:
35 ;; 1) Periodically use `checkdoc' or `checkdoc-current-buffer'.
36 ;; `checkdoc' is a more interactive version of
37 ;; `checkdoc-current-buffer'
38 ;; 2) Use `checkdoc-minor-mode' to automatically check your
39 ;; documentation whenever you evaluate Lisp code with C-M-x
40 ;; or [menu-bar emacs-lisp eval-buffer]. Additional key-bindings
41 ;; are also provided under C-c ? KEY
42 ;; (require 'checkdoc)
43 ;; (add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode-hook
44 ;; '(lambda () (checkdoc-minor-mode 1)))
45 ;;
46 ;; Using `checkdoc':
47 ;;
48 ;; The commands `checkdoc' and `checkdoc-ispell' are the top-level
49 ;; entry points to all of the different checks that are available. It
50 ;; breaks examination of your Lisp file into four sections (comments,
51 ;; documentation, messages, and spacing) and indicates its current
52 ;; state in a status buffer.
53 ;;
54 ;; The Comments check examines your headers, footers, and
55 ;; various tags (such as "Code:") to make sure that your code is ready
56 ;; for easy integration into existing systems.
57 ;;
58 ;; The Documentation check deals with documentation strings
59 ;; and their elements that help make Emacs easier to use.
60 ;;
61 ;; The Messages check ensures that the strings displayed in the
62 ;; minibuffer by some commands (such as `error' and `y-or-n-p')
63 ;; are consistent with the Emacs environment.
64 ;;
65 ;; The Spacing check cleans up white-space at the end of lines.
66 ;;
67 ;; The interface while working with documentation and messages is
68 ;; slightly different when being run in the interactive mode. The
69 ;; interface offers several options, including the ability to skip to
70 ;; the next error, or back up to previous errors. Auto-fixing is
71 ;; turned off at this stage, but you can use the `f' or `F' key to fix
72 ;; a given error (if the fix is available.)
73 ;;
74 ;; Auto-fixing:
75 ;;
76 ;; There are four classifications of style errors in terms of how
77 ;; easy they are to fix. They are simple, complex, really complex,
78 ;; and impossible. (Impossible really means that checkdoc does not
79 ;; have a fixing routine yet.) Typically white-space errors are
80 ;; classified as simple, and are auto-fixed by default. Typographic
81 ;; changes are considered complex, and the user is asked if they want
82 ;; the problem fixed before checkdoc makes the change. These changes
83 ;; can be done without asking if `checkdoc-autofix-flag' is properly
84 ;; set. Potentially redundant changes are considered really complex,
85 ;; and the user is always asked before a change is inserted. The
86 ;; variable `checkdoc-autofix-flag' controls how these types of errors
87 ;; are fixed.
88 ;;
89 ;; Spell checking text:
90 ;;
91 ;; The variable `checkdoc-spellcheck-documentation-flag' can be set
92 ;; to customize how spell checking is to be done. Since spell
93 ;; checking can be quite slow, you can optimize how best you want your
94 ;; checking done. The default is `defun', which spell checks each time
95 ;; `checkdoc-defun' or `checkdoc-eval-defun' is used. Setting to nil
96 ;; prevents spell checking during normal usage.
97 ;; Setting this variable to nil does not mean you cannot take
98 ;; advantage of the spell checking. You can instead use the
99 ;; interactive functions `checkdoc-ispell-*' to check the spelling of
100 ;; your documentation.
101 ;; There is a list of Lisp-specific words which checkdoc will
102 ;; install into Ispell on the fly, but only if Ispell is not already
103 ;; running. Use `ispell-kill-ispell' to make checkdoc restart it with
104 ;; these words enabled.
105 ;;
106 ;; Checking parameters:
107 ;;
108 ;; You might not always want a function to have its parameters listed
109 ;; in order. When this is the case, put the following comment just in
110 ;; front of the documentation string: "; checkdoc-order: nil" This
111 ;; overrides the value of `checkdoc-arguments-in-order-flag'.
112 ;;
113 ;; If you specifically wish to avoid mentioning a parameter of a
114 ;; function in the doc string (such as a hidden parameter, or a
115 ;; parameter which is very obvious like events), you can have checkdoc
116 ;; skip looking for it by putting the following comment just in front
117 ;; of the documentation string: "; checkdoc-params: (args go here)"
118 ;;
119 ;; Checking message strings:
120 ;;
121 ;; The text that follows the `error' and `y-or-n-p' commands is
122 ;; also checked. The documentation for `error' clearly states some
123 ;; simple style rules to follow which checkdoc will auto-fix for you.
124 ;; `y-or-n-p' also states that it should end in a space. I added that
125 ;; it should end in "? " since that is almost always used.
126 ;;
127 ;; Adding your own checks:
128 ;;
129 ;; You can experiment with adding your own checks by setting the
130 ;; hooks `checkdoc-style-hooks' and `checkdoc-comment-style-hooks'.
131 ;; Return a string which is the error you wish to report. The cursor
132 ;; position should be preserved.
133 ;;
134 ;; Error errors:
135 ;;
136 ;; Checkdoc does not always flag errors correctly. There are a
137 ;; couple ways you can coax your file into passing all of checkdoc's
138 ;; tests through buffer local variables.
139 ;;
140 ;; The variable `checkdoc-verb-check-experimental-flag' can be used
141 ;; to turn off the check for verb-voice in case you use words that are
142 ;; not semantically verbs, but are still in the incomplete list.
143 ;;
144 ;; The variable `checkdoc-symbol-words' can be a list of words that
145 ;; happen to also be symbols. This is not a problem for one-word
146 ;; symbols, but if you use a hyphenated word that is also a symbol,
147 ;; then you may need this.
148 ;;
149 ;; The symbol `checkdoc-force-docstrings-flag' can be set to nil if
150 ;; you have many undocumented functions you don't wish to document.
151 ;;
152 ;; See the above section "Checking Parameters" for details about
153 ;; parameter checking.
154 ;;
155 ;; Dependencies:
156 ;;
157 ;; This file requires lisp-mnt (Lisp maintenance routines) for the
158 ;; comment checkers.
159 ;;
160 ;; Requires custom for Emacs v20.
161
162 ;;; TO DO:
163 ;; Hook into the byte compiler on a defun/defvar level to generate
164 ;; warnings in the byte-compiler's warning/error buffer.
165 ;; Better ways to override more typical `eval' functions. Advice
166 ;; might be good but hard to turn on/off as a minor mode.
167 ;;
168 ;;; Maybe Do:
169 ;; Code sweep checks for "forbidden functions", proper use of hooks,
