Subject: Possible to create minibuffer prompt with trailing text?
Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2004 13:34:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4153334E.1040707@newsmonster.org> (raw)
I want to create a minibuffer prompt that looks like:
switch-to-buffer: [1/100] 'Main.java': Mai
^^^^^^^^(1) ^^(2)
Where sections:
1. Is the current hit... In this case Main.java is the entry in a list.
2. "Mai" is the input text.
I want to extend the prompt to become:
switch-to-buffer: [1/100] 'Main.java': Mai /projects/foo/src/java/foo/Main.java
^^^^^^^^(1) ^^(2) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^(3)
Where:
3: Is additional metainfo about this entry appended to the hit and with font-lock-comment-face so that
its obvious that its just a hint
Does this make sense? I should be able to do this with an overlay correct?
