I need some suggestions regarding the following code - so that I simplify it
and enhance it. qrh-organis is the interactive call for users.
I pass button as argument to organis-selk, which is then passed to
organis-selk-f8, organis-selk-b8, and organis-selk-menu. Is such strategy a
good way or can all this be improved in its design ?
(defconst organis-b8 "\n Some text \n")
(defconst organis-b8 "\n Some more text \n")
(defun organis-selk-f8 (button)
"Function to be executed when the button is clicked."
(with-help-window (help-buffer)
(insert " > Graphical Organisation \n")
(insert " ")
(insert-button "[Next]"
'action 'organis-selk-b8 'follow-link t)
(insert " *** \n")
(insert organis-f8)))
(defun organis-selk-b8 (button)
"Function to be executed when the button is clicked."
(with-help-window (help-buffer)
(insert-button "[Prev]"
'action 'organis-selk-f8 'follow-link t)
(insert " Frames, Windows, Buffers\n")
(insert organis-b8)))
(defun organis-selk-menu (button)
"Function to be executed when the button is clicked."
(with-help-window (help-buffer)
(insert-button "[F8]" 'action 'organis-selk-f8 'follow-link t)
(insert " Frames, Windows, Buffers \n")
(insert-button "[B8]" 'action 'organis-selk-b8 'follow-link t)
(insert " *** \n")))
(defun organis-selk (button)
"Function to be executed when the button is clicked."
(pcase (button-label button) ; Test button property first
("[F8]" (organis-selk-f8 button))
("[B8]" (organis-selk-b8 button))
(_ (organis-selk-menu button))) )
(defun qrh-organis ()
"Prints information about frames."
(interactive)
(with-help-window (help-buffer)
(insert-button "[F8]" 'action 'organis-selk 'follow-link t)
(insert " Frames, Windows, Buffers \n")
(insert-button "[B8]" 'action 'organis-selk 'follow-link t)
(insert " *** \n") ))
