... yet there is method in 't. I nearly spent an hour analyzing
longlines-mode and writing my proposal. Please spend a few minutes on
the following questions:
- longlines-mode substitutes newlines for spaces. This means that any
function based on scan_newline (like `goto-line') may get me results
that are inconsistent with those of tools analyzing the file my buffer
visits. How can I treat compiler or grep output with longlines-mode?
- Matching against the regexp "." may get me different results for the
same buffer with longlines-mode disabled and enabled. Ignore that?
- longlines-mode may wrap a regexp like "[ \t]*" at the space character.
How can I evaluate a wrapped regexp like that?
- How can I avoid that longlines-mode wraps a Lisp or Perl expression at
a space preceding a left paren (with the left paren ending up at bol
and messing up `beginning-of-defun-raw' and thus font-locking)?
- How can I avoid that longlines-mode wraps a C string and
`c-font-lock-invalid-string' complains?
- I put an arbitrary text property on a space character. longlines-mode
wraps the line at that character. How can I restore that property
when turning off longlines-mode?
- I use two windows of different widths to simultaneously show one and
the same buffer. How can I adapt longlines-mode to wrap at the right
borders of my windows?
