TL;DR: We are in the process of designing a more unified selection
interface for Org mode and want to see if there is some way to unify
context-menu-mode, transient, which-key and embark together. The idea is
to (1) avoid too many customizations; (2) allow users to decide how to
choose between multiple options - by mouse, keyboard, and using
customizable UIs.
Dear all,
I have raised the topic of refactoring Org mode menu systems during
EmacsConf in https://emacsconf.org/2024/talks/org-update/
The initial idea was replacing the self-written menu code in Org with
built-in transient.el.
Later, during OrgMeetup a number of people raised concerns that
transient may sometimes be an overkill, and that some people may prefer
alternative UIs. In particular, embark and context-menu-mode were
mentioned.
(I am CCing the discussion participants and potentially interested
maintainers)
In Org mode (although not only in Org mode, looking at the success of
embark.el), we often have a UI model where users call an "action"
command (like org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c or org-open-at-point) followed by
interactive selection among multiple actions.
For example, org-open-at-point on a heading with multiple links inside
will raise a section buffer listing all the links - pressing a number
will open the corresponding link.
Another example (see the example patch below), which is a
work-in-progress patch for Org citation system, is "following" a
citation. To "follow" citation may mean multiple things including but
not limited to: (1) going to citation record in the bibliography file;
(2) following URL; (3) downloading .pdf file for a citation; etc.
**The list of "follow" actions may be customized by users**
The general UI flow in these scenarios will be:
1. User calls "action" with cursor at certain syntax element
2. Action menu is displayed, showing the available actions/targets (dynamically built)
3. User selects the action/target
This UI flow can be implemented using context menus, which-key popups,
transient menus, and also using embark (where the way menu is displayed
can be customized).
All the 4 approaches represent different UI models with various
strengths and weaknesses:
- transient has a very flexible layout builder where the menu items can
be arranged granularly, but intercepts the main loop disrupting
certain keyboard-based workflows
- which-key does not stand on the way and integrates well into Emacs'
key binding model, but provides little flexibility for menu layout
- embark stays in the middle between which-key and transient, making use
of transient keymaps and allowing a custom menu renderer
- context-menu-mode provides mouse experience
I am wondering if we can work out some universal API to plug the
described action->menu->selection model into the UI that user prefers.
Tentatively, I am thinking about the following:
For a given Emacs "prefix" command (e.g. org-open-at-point), we define a
set of customizations:
1. List of possible actions: ((name1 . action1 props) (name2 . action2 ...) ...)
PROPS is a plist defining extra properties like key-binding, display
string, maybe something else to be used in the future.
2. Menu interface to use (transient, context-menu, embark, which-key)
3. Layout settings for the specific interfaces. For example, transient
layout definition.
WDYT?
Best,
Ihor

> intercepts the main loop
This is optional, per transient menu (prefix) and the commands within it.
A common technique, used by magit and others, is to have entry point
commands in the regular keymap so that many commands can be started without
traversing several menus. If you want normal un-shadowed bindings active
at the same time, the prefix has a slot called `transient-non-suffix' that
is similar to the `:suppress' option in keymaps or setting a `t'
`undefined' binding in a keymap. However the results of mixing self-insert
and modal or modal and another modal are generally bad.
The biggest drawbacks of transient are well known in Github issues:
- Which-key discovery of Transient keymaps
- Transient binding generation based on keymaps
- Normalizing how to obtain arguments when being called independently as an
interactive command versus being called as a Transient suffix
In the short term, to punch the first two problems in the face, override
the `:setup-children' method. If you know what keymap you are borrowing
bindings from, you can synchronize it at display time.
Regarding the normalization with interactive, if you are not using
transient infixes and instead lean on the :info class and dynamic
:descriptions, you can display state and store it using normal buffer-local
and defvar techniques, providing visual feedback for what might be hidden
states after the user gets more familiar. The commands work with or
without a prefix currently active. In this usage model, you only use
Transient for its flow control, display, and layout. I find the infix
system to be somewhat of a distraction if you are not actually building a
CLI wrapper, but you can definitely make suffixes and descriptions "smart"
by reading a scope from the prefix and making custom infixes that also
obtain more state when displayed. A custom infix for storing org elements
or objects could certainly be a thing.
I think deeper user customization is an area that is weak with transient,
but only because the user actually needs to have a vision for how they want
to build up stateful commands. If you're just doing prefix maps, transient
and hydra are equivalent concepts. Transient becomes differentiated when
you consider commands that build up state for other commands. Executing
slightly modified command sentences in rapid succession is not something
the user customizes casually. Complex commands only make sense when the
context they depend on is populated, which naturally decides the menu flow.

Well, I'm sure you know that transient has more decisions encoded in the
layout than the other options. If the data going in is a least common
denominator, you need supplementary data elsewhere to achieve a good result.
What I fear is a system like org-speed-keys which relies on an override of
`org-self-insert' and is yet another orthogonal system. I much prefer the
Lispy style of integration, which uses a keymap. Using keymaps, even if
they are not active, to generate transient key bindings via :setup-children
is the best way to have certain integration with other Emacs tools.
How people can collaborate with me on general questions of design is to
open issues on the Transient Showcase. Either I can point to an existing
example or make a new one. I've been giving some thought to how to
demonstrate an idea more generally of composing multiple commands and
manipulating the composition to dispatch complex commands in rapid
succession with minor differences. I personally have my own org speed keys
solution that I've been developing for yet another more complex package I
call Afterburner. These projects can become stuck in design hell when I
don't have the prodding from other problem analysis, so please, bother me.

Hello. I'm very much an elisp amateur, but one of my main motives for
learning has been to make use of emacs' many beautiful UI systems.
Therefore, I'll provide my comments from a designer perspective and
avoid implementation detail.

Thanks to Tor-björn, Jonas, Ihor, and everyone else for this work. I've
learned much by following this thread.
> a number of people raised concerns that transient may sometimes be an
> overkill
I agree with others that transient is overkill for most of the menus in
org-mode. A counter argument, going by the patches exchanged here, might
be that transient menus are a clean and scalable approach.
I've not tried the in-dev transient follow processor, but I imagine it
is similar to the old org-ref (John Kitchin) hydra menu. I used org-ref
for years, and enjoyed how its menu united many features, including
- a system analogous to org-cite follow processors for navigating to sources/notes
- a system akin to reftex-mode for org
- a system for downloading new references and making new bibliography entries
With this level of complexity, a transient menu seems like the modern
weapon of choice for a similar feature set. Only, wait, I stopped using
org-ref.
Long story short, I concluded that treating org-mode like a nexus for
these intertwined features was, at least, encouraging my bad habit of
treating org-mode as an "everything app."
I have since delegated the task of populating my personal library to a
dedicated reference manager. I started using latex-mode and reftex to
write papers, thus gaining more typesetting control and making version
management much easier. I still use org to take notes, but now enjoy a
much more stable and focused configuration.
I tell this story as an (anecdotal) case study for how a powerful menu
can be less productive in the long run. Org-ref's hydra menu is not to
blame for my bad decisions but, at least in-part, I used it (and even
extended it) because a greater man put it there.
Scalable design is an invitation to scale. Perhaps the wise know better.
Anyway, the simple tasks of navigating from a citation link to a copy of
the original document, its URL, or an associated note is achievable with
a completing-read (helm, counsel, vertico, etc.) interface.
Transient is overkill.
> This UI flow can be implemented using context menus [...] embark
I like org's context menus, but I like embark better. I do think it
would be very generous of org to delegate its own contextual actions to
embark if so configured.
I'll elaborate:
As is, I like to run org-babel code block functions through embark, I
only wish there were more of them to run. I find this to be far superior
in every way to binding equivalent key chords for the mode.
Also, for me, embark-bindings and embark-prefix-help-command have
completely replaced which-key for discovering key bindings on-the-fly.
> I am wondering if we can work out some universal API to plug the

I support this idea in principle.

I would focus on associating just enough metadata with functions to
enable using them with embark. I really have no idea what the best way
to do this is. This seems to be the biggest missing piece.
Maybe in the short term we just crowd-source some embark configuration
on WORG.
Menus should of course be useful without embark. If the goal here is to
deprecate many of org's ad-hoc interfaces, I think the natural default
replacement for most is completing-read. I may be completely wrong.
> 2. Menu interface to use (transient, context-menu, embark, which-key)
It seems like Tor-björn and Ihor have already laid the groundwork for
using transient in this way. So, I'll just say bravo. Regardless of my
opinion on transient overuse, it looks like great work.
On the other hand, e.g. if the org export dispatch menu isn't transient,
it should be. Seems obvious to me.
> 3. Layout settings for the specific interfaces. For example, transient
> layout definition.
It is important to avoid making more org-mode-specific UI abstractions.
Whatever the solution, it is important that the UI implementations
tapped to take over help share the maintenance burden.
In this way, I reckon most interface customization can be done in hooks.

Ideally org-mode uses established APIs rather than making another.
Thanks for reading, and thanks for the chance to contribute.

Thanks for the info!
So, we can have something like
:transient-non-suffix 'leave
and then pressing something that is not bound to a suffix or infix will
run the parent keymap command, automatically leaving transient state.
> - Normalizing how to obtain arguments when being called independently as an

I think it is addressed in the example patch I shared. There, we pass
around the original function arguments via macro expansion (!arg-name)
["Open" ("b" "bibliography entry" (org-cite-basic-goto !citation !prefix))]

This is also partially solved. We do use :setup-children, although the
initial implementation simply reads user customization into menu layout.
I believe that we can read a keymap in similar way and generate
transient layout automatically.
