Subject: Positioning point after insert in another buffer
Date: Thu, 9 Dec 2004 19:28:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <27122796$110261648141b897a1b59d68.86352374@config18.schlund.de> (raw)
I am internationalising an application, and am trying to write a simple
emacs lisp function to kill the current region, insert a message into a
resource file in another buffer and then insert code to retrieve and
display the message.
The problem I have is that after I have executed my function the point
in the resource file is at the beginning of the inserted message. I
want it to be at the end, so when I run my function several times the
messages appear in the resource file in the order I created them. How
can I do this?
Here's the function:
(defvar fjdjava-message-buffer-name "ApplicationResources.properties")
(defun fjdjava-region-to-message (key)
"Converts the region into a message in the buffer named
`fjdjava-message-buffer-name'"
(interactive "sMessage key: \n")
(kill-region (point) (mark))
(save-excursion
(set-buffer fjdjava-message-buffer-name)
(insert key " = ")
(yank)
(insert "\n"))
(insert "<bean:message key=\"" key "\" />"))
Thanks,
Francis.
