Tags: patch

A minor bug fix involving the `scrolltobottom' module (and originally
lumped in with the mostly unrelated bug#63595) eventually materialized
on HEAD as [1]. While it did fix the bug, it didn't really address any
of the related foundational issues that have haunted `scrolltobottom'
since the beginning. The attached patch is meant to make the module more
predictable and consistent overall, while specifically addressing

  - the effect only being applied in the selected window

  - the effect not responding to changes in window size

  - the gradual scrolling of point toward the centermost line when
    away from the prompt (on graphical displays)

People miffed by this module's rough edges are encouraged to try these
changes and give feedback.

Thanks.

      Fix buffer-mismatch bug in erc-scroll-to-bottom

      * lisp/erc/erc-goodies.el (erc-scroll-to-bottom): Only
      `recenter' when the selected window's buffer is current.
      Previously, the module `scrolltobottom' signaled an "Error in
      `post-command-hook'" when a user clicked a channel indicator in
      the mode line from a window showing another ERC buffer.
    [...]

Subject: [PATCH] [5.6] Consider all windows in erc-scrolltobottom-mode

* lisp/erc/erc-goodies.el (erc-scrolltobottom-mode,
erc-scrolltobottom-enable, erc-scrolltobottom-disable): Use
`erc--scroll-to-bottom-all' instead of `erc-possibly-scroll-to-bottom'
for `erc-insert-done-hook' and now also `erc-send-completed-hook'.
Call `erc-add-scroll-to-bottom' for teardown as well.
(erc--scroll-to-bottom-debounce-expire): New variable.
(erc-possibly-scroll-to-bottom): Don't bother scrolling when user has
done so recently.
(erc--scroll-to-bottom-all): New function to scroll in all windows of
the current buffer.
(erc-add-scroll-to-bottom): Perform teardown as well when mode is
disabled.  Also run on `window-configuration-changed-hook'.
(erc-scroll-to-bottom): Use `window-point' instead of `point'.
