Okay, I've found wisi-prj.el, but I can't find any documentation for the
process environment aspect of it. Therefore it's still not clear to me
how it relates with this discussion.
Wisi claims to be a code-parsing tool. Are there any new ideas in it
that pertain to project-wise process environments specifically and could
be adopted more broadly, say by project.el?
At the risk of repeating myself too much, here is my idea of how
project-specific environments would work:
- Every command that creates a process should use the buffer-local value
of `process-environment' if applicable (this is what the attached
patch addresses for `compile').
- Every buffer that "belongs" to a project gets the right buffer-local
value of `process-enviroment' (as well as `exec-path') by one of
several possible techniques:
- Via an exec directive in the dir-locals file
- Using a direnv-like package such as `envrc' or `buffer-env' (both
currently on MELPA).
