It works only on Emacs 21. ;; ;; You can use the mouse to change the `fill-column', `window-margins' ;; and `tab-stop-list' settings: ;; ;; [header-line (shift down-mouse-1)] set left margin to the ruler ;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on. ;; ;; [header-line (shift down-mouse-3)] set right margin to the ruler ;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on. ;; ;; [header-line down-mouse-2] set `fill-column' to the ruler ;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on. ;; ;; [header-line (control down-mouse-1)] add a tab stop to the ruler ;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on. ;; ;; [header-line (control down-mouse-3)] remove the tab stop at the ;; ruler graduation where the mouse pointer is on. ;; ;; [header-line (control down-mouse-2)] or M-x ;; `ruler-mode-toggle-show-tab-stops' toggle showing and visually ;; editing `tab-stop-list' setting. The `ruler-mode-show-tab-stops' ;; option controls if the ruler shows tab stops by default. ;; ;; In the ruler the character `ruler-mode-current-column-char' shows ;; the `current-column' location, `ruler-mode-fill-column-char' shows ;; the `fill-column' location and `ruler-mode-tab-stop-char' shows tab ;; stop locations. `window-margins' areas are shown with a different ;; background color. ;; ;; It is also possible to customize the following characters: ;; ;; - `ruler-mode-margins-char' character used to pad margin areas ;; (space by default). ;; - `ruler-mode-basic-graduation-char' character used for basic ;; graduations ('.' by default). ;; - `ruler-mode-inter-graduation-char' character used for ;; intermediate graduations ('!' by default). ;; ;; The following faces are customizable: ;; ;; - `ruler-mode-default-face' the ruler default face. ;; - `ruler-mode-fill-column-face' the face used to highlight the ;; `fill-column' character. ;; - `ruler-mode-current-column-face' the face used to highlight the ;; `current-column' character. ;; - `ruler-mode-tab-stop-face' the face used to highlight tab stop ;; characters. ;; - `ruler-mode-margins-face' the face used to highlight the ;; `window-margins' areas. ;; - `ruler-mode-column-number-face' the face used to highlight the ;; number graduations. ;; ;; `ruler-mode-default-face' inherits from the built-in `default' face. ;; All `ruler-mode' faces inerit from `ruler-mode-default-face'. ;; ;; WARNING: To keep ruler graduations aligned on text columns it is ;; important to use the same font family and size for ruler and text ;; areas. ;; Installation ;; ;; To automatically display the ruler in specific major modes use: ;; ;; (add-hook '-hook 'ruler-mode) ;; ;;; History: ;; ;;; Code: (eval-when-compile (require 'wid-edit)) (defgroup ruler-mode nil "Display a ruler in the header line." :version "21.2" :group 'environment) (defcustom ruler-mode-show-tab-stops nil "*If non-nil the ruler shows tab stop positions.
