* Description
|
||||
This module provides a customizable popup window management system.
|
||||
|
||||
#+begin_quote
|
||||
Not all windows are created equally. Some are less important. Some I want gone
|
||||
once they have served their purpose, like code output or a help buffer. Others I
|
||||
want to stick around, like a scratch buffer or org-capture popup.
|
||||
|
||||
More than that, popups ought to be be the second class citizens of my editor;
|
||||
spawned off to the side, discarded with the simple push of a button
|
||||
(Escape/C-g), and easily restored if I want to see them again. Of course, this
|
||||
system should clean up after itself and kill off buffers I mark as transient.

||||

** Module Flags
|
||||
+ =+all= Enables fallback rules to ensure all temporary/special buffers (whose
|
||||
name begins with a space or asterix) are treated as popups.
|
||||
+ =+defaults= Enables reasonable default popup rules for a variety of buffers.
|
||||
|
||||
* Prerequisites
|
||||
This module has no external prerequisites.
|
||||
|
||||
* Configuration
|
||||
** ~set-popup-rules!~
|
||||
This module has one setting for defining your own rules for popups:
|
||||
** ~set-popup-rule!~ and ~set-popup-rules!~
|
||||
This module has two functions for defining your own rules for popups:
|
||||
|
||||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||||
(set-popup-rule! PREDICATE &key IGNORE ACTIONS SIDE SIZE WIDTH HEIGHT SLOT VSLOT TTL QUIT SELECT MODELINE AUTOSAVE PARAMETERS)
|
||||
(set-popup-rules! &rest RULESETS)
|
||||
#+END_SRC
|
||||
|
||||
+ ~RULESETS~ consist of a function or regexp string that matches the buffer's
|
||||
name, and a list of settings. See ~display-buffer~'s,
|
||||
~display-window-parameters~'s, and ~+popup-window-parameters~'s documentation
|
||||
for what parameters are supported.
|
||||
~PREDICATE~ is a predicate function or regexp string to match against the
|
||||
buffer's name. To see what the other keywords do, check out the documentation
|
||||
for ~set-popup-rule!~ (=SPC h f set-popup-rule!=).
|
||||
|
||||
#+begin_quote
|
||||
Rules are added to ~display-buffer-alist~, which instructs ~display-buffer~
|
||||
calls on how to set up windows for buffers that meet certain conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
#+begin_quote
|
||||
The ~switch-to-buffer~ command (and its ~switch-to-buffer-*~ variants) are not
|
||||
affected by ~display-buffer-alist~.
|
||||
#+end_quote
|
||||
|
||||
Here are a couple example rules:
|
||||
|
||||
e.g.
|
||||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||||
(set-popup-rules!
|
||||
'(("^ \\*" :slot -1) ; fallback rule for special buffers
|

@ -57,24 +66,26 @@ Here are a couple example rules:
|

#+END_SRC
|
||||
|
||||
Omitted parameters in a ~set-popup-rules!~ will use the defaults set in
|
||||
~+popup-default-alist~ and ~+popup-default-parameters~.
|
||||
~+popup-defaults~.

** Disabling aggressive mode-line hiding in popups
|
||||
There are two ways to go about this. You can turn on modelines by changing the
|
||||
default ~'modeline~ window parameter in ~+popup-default-parameters~:

There are two ways to go about this.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Turn on modelines by changing the ~:modeline~ property in ~+popup-defaults~:
|
||||
|
||||
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
||||
;; put in private/$USER/config.el
|
||||
(map-put +popup-default-parameters 'modeline t)
|
||||
(map-put +popup-defaults :modeline t)
|
||||
#+END_SRC
|
||||
|
||||
This will ensure all popups have a modeline /by default/, but allows you to override this on a per-popup basis.
