Subject: [ELPA] New package: hook-helpers.el
Date: Sun, 12 Jun 2016 14:57:54 -0400 (2 minutes, 34 seconds ago) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <878tya6xfg.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
As no one has made any other objections, I'll officially submit this to GNU ELPA.
It's currently maintained on Savannah, so I've included the patch for adding hook-helpers to the externals-list file. I apologize if I've done this incorrectly.
Official Description:
Often times, I see people define a function to be used once in a hook. If they don’t do this, then it will be an anonymous function. If the anonymous function is modified, then the function can’t be removed. With a function outside of the ‘add-hook’ call, it looks messy.
The ‘define-hook-helper’ macro is a solution to this. Think of it as an anaphoric ‘add-hook’, but one that can be called many times without risking redundant hook functions. It gives a cleaner look and feel to Emacs configuration files, and could even be used in actual libraries.
