Subject: Message queue for Emacs?
Date: Sun, 23 Apr 2017 19:44:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87vapv9fyf.fsf@jane> (raw)

Hi there,

a lot of Emacs commands send a (message "...") for a user in the echo
area.  Now imagine a command that sends more than of them (not unlikely
e.g. if there are a few hooks, each printing a message).  Of course,
only the last one is then visible.  Is there any way for the next
message to be printed with some delay, so that the previous one is still
visible, say, for a second or two?

I know about C-h e (view-echo-area-messages), but this is not what I'm
after.

TIA,
