But for base buffers, INDIRECT-PARSER-LIST includes all the parsers of its indirect buffers; and for indirect buffers, INDIRECT-PARSER-LIST is nil. >> >> You can maybe have the indirect buffers in the list, not their parsers. >> That could make it easier to access other treesit-related information of the >> indirect buffers, if needed. > > Good idea, it’s easier to know when to remove the reference with buffers, aka when buffer is killed. I now have a patch that fixes this problem. WDYT? I added a new buffer field since it’s cleaner than turning ts_parser_list into a cons, hopefully that’s not frowned upon. Yuan
