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

232 ;;{{{ Preliminaries
233
234 ;; Make the compiler shut up!
235 ;; There are two strategies:
236 ;; 1) Shut warnings off completely.
237 ;; 2) Handle each warning separately.
238 ;;
239 ;; Since I would like to see real errors, I've selected the latter
240 ;; method.
241 ;;
242 ;; The problem with undefined variables and functions has been solved
243 ;; by using `set', `symbol-value' and `symbol-function' rather than
244 ;; `setq' and direct references to variables and functions.
245 ;;
246 ;; For example:
247 ;; (if (boundp 'foo) ... (symbol-value 'foo) )
248 ;; (set 'foo ...) <-- XEmacs doesn't fall for this one.
249 ;; (funcall (symbol-function 'set) 'bar ...)
250 ;;
251 ;; Note: When this file is interpreted, `eval-when-compile' is
252 ;; evaluted. Since it doesn't hurt to evaluate it, but it is a bit
253 ;; annoying, we test if the byte-compiler has been loaded. This can,
254 ;; of course, lead to some occasional unintended evaluation...

633 "Minor mode that combines windows into one tall virtual window.
634
635 The feeling of a \"virtual window\" has been accomplished by the use
636 of two major techniques:
637
638 * The windows always displays adjacent sections of the buffer.
639 This means that whenever one window is moved, all the
640 others will follow. (Hence the name Follow Mode.)
641
642 * Should the point (cursor) end up outside a window, another
643 window displaying that point is selected, if possible. This
644 makes it possible to walk between windows using normal cursor
645 movement commands.
646
647 Follow mode comes to its prime when used on a large screen and two
648 side-by-side window are used. The user can, with the help of Follow
649 mode, use two full-height windows as though they would have been
650 one. Imagine yourself editing a large function, or section of text,
651 and being able to use 144 lines instead of the normal 72... (your
652 mileage may vary).
653
654 To split one large window into two side-by-side windows, the commands
655 `\\[split-window-horizontally]' or \
656 `M-x follow-delete-other-windows-and-split' can be used.
657
658 Only windows displayed in the same frame follow each-other.
659
660 If the variable `follow-intercept-processes' is non-nil, Follow mode
661 will listen to the output of processes and redisplay accordingly.
