I have some code that I use to display things different: [-- Attachment #2: My modified modeline --] [-- Type: image/png, Size: 1904 bytes --] [-- Attachment #3: Type: text/plain, Size: 812 bytes --] I have here combined line number and column number. (Saves modeline estate.) I work with the default starting with 0, but it is easy to change the code. (The blessing of OSS.) I use: (defun buffer-position (&optional do-yank) (let ((ret-val (format "%d,%d" (line-number-at-pos) (current-column)))) (buffer-count-exit do-yank (interactive-p) ret-val nil))) but this could be changed to: (defun buffer-position (&optional do-yank) (let ((ret-val (format "%d,%d" (line-number-at-pos) (1+ (current-column))))) (buffer-count-exit do-yank (interactive-p) ret-val nil))) Let me know if you are interested. I did post it in the past, but it will be better to have the latest version. -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

I suppose, you could change the (propertize ... "(%l,%c)" parts in `mode-line-position' to something like ... (column-number-mode (10 (:eval (propertize (format " (%l,%d)" (1+ (current-column))) 'local-map mode-line-column-line-number-mode-map 'mouse-face 'mode-line-highlight 'help-echo "Line number and Column number\n\ mouse-1: Display Line and Column Mode Menu"))) ... -ap ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Is there something special about 23.1 for Windows? Is there some sort of weird caching going on?

Instead of hacking directly on bindings.el I located bindings+.el, put it in site-lisp, and that overrode things the right way. The problem is that the "eval" construct doesn't get eval'd every time the cursor moves. Also, you can't mix %l and $d in a format that way. I tried this and it didn't work: (10 (:eval (propertize (format " (%d,%d)" (current-line) (1+ (current-column))) 'local-map mode-line-column-line-number-mode-map 'mouse-face 'mode-line-highlight This works better but does not update frequently enough: (5 (:eval (propertize (format " C%d" (1+ (current-column))) 'local-map mode-line-column-line-number-mode-map 'mouse-face 'mode-line-highlight It's close, but not quite.

The mode line is caused to be updated more often by the %c construct. If you remove it you have to trigger an update some other way. > Also, you can't mix %l and $d in a format that way. You can add another % to protect the %-sequence.

Is there some sort > of weird caching going on? For the record; bindings is compiled into the executable (on all platforms), therefore you would have to rebuild Emacs to change it in this way. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
