Subject: bug#25111:
Date: Sun, 4 Dec 2016 20:53:24 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f5f413ee50ce5808ca0e8597ce95cdc3.squirrel@cloud103.planethippo.com> (raw)
The documentation for "modification-hooks" on overlays says:
If these functions modify the buffer, they should bind
‘inhibit-modification-hooks’ to ‘t’ around doing so, to avoid
confusing the internal mechanism that calls these hooks.
But as far as I can see, the only place these gets called
"signal_after_change"
and "signal_before_change", inhibit-modification-hooks is already specbound
to t, so this advice is unnecessary.
Also, the documentation for inhibit-modification-hooks says:
If you do want modification hooks to be run in a particular
piece of code that is itself run from a modification hook, then
rebind locally ‘inhibit-modification-hooks’ to ‘nil’.
which suggests that, in fact, it is possible to call the modification
hooks from inside another call to these functions.
This is true for both emacs-25 and master.
