Re: Auto add register when leaving buffer?

[Marc Coquand <marc@mccd.space>]

Hey!

Not quite, I'm trying to set up so I am able to return to specific files
of a certain file-type.

So what I had in mind: 

- ~C-x r j h~ :: Jump to last opened html file
- ~C-x r j c~ :: Jump to last opened css file
- ~C-x r j t~ :: Jump to last opened .test.go file
- ~C-x r j j~ :: Jump to last opened js file
- ~C-x r j p~ :: Jump to last opened .go file

I can jump between buffers by using ~C-x b~ but that can sometimes be a
bit slow. I think the above setup should be feasible somehow, after all I
can manually set marks with ~C-x r <SPC> X~ where X is the position I
want to register.

If there is some hook akin to "On-leave buffer" or "On-reopen buffer"
for a certain file-type, it feels like this should be doable.
