Subject: bug#52877: 27.2; Let `use-dialog-box' apply to more than just yes/no questions
Date: Wed, 29 Dec 2021 17:47:19 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <SJ0PR10MB5488E038243B55C1DA1B10B6F3449@SJ0PR10MB5488.namprd10.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
A starting point is to redefine commands such as `menu-set-font', to
respect `use-dialog-box'. For example:
(defun menu-set-font ()
"Interactively select a font and make it the default on all frames.
The selected font will be the default on both the existing and future frames."
(interactive)
(if use-dialog-box
(menu-set-font)
(call-interactively #'set-frame-font-all)))
(defun set-frame-font-all (font)
"Set the default font to FONT on all existing and future frames.
\(This is `set-frame-font' with `t' as argument FRAMES.)"
(interactive
(let* ((completion-ignore-case t)
(font (completing-read "Font name: "
(x-list-fonts "*" nil (selected-frame))
nil nil nil nil
(frame-parameter nil 'font))))
(list font)))
(set-frame-font font nil t))
If you prefer, instead of attempting the more general improvement of
commands that could respect `use-dialog-box', just fix `menu-set-font'
as indicated (or similarly). But I think more commands that today
always raise a dialog box should be able to respect `use-dialog-box'.
