Message-ID: <87lfn6sk70.fsf@ebih.ebihd> (raw)
find or set a comment mark, with only one function to do
both things! Useful when you are proofreading/editing
a long document, e.g. a violent, immoral science fiction
novel featuring futuristic all-graphene sniper rifles
... and a hovercraft over an industrial swamp, where the
trajectory of the vehicle must be computed with the
outmost etc etc for the Kodak moment to appear... might
as well shoot - its not like a SINGLE BULLET ever
changed world history!
The comment style is LaTeX as it stands.
(defun find-here ()
(interactive)
(let ((start (point)))
(goto-char (point-min))
(let*((sign "%%%% hit123") ; change disaccording to need
(hits (how-many sign (point-min) (point-max))) )
(if (> hits 0)
(progn
(search-forward-regexp sign)
(beginning-of-line)
(recenter 1)
(message "%d" hits) )
(goto-char start)
(insert sign) ))))
(defalias 'h #'find-here)
