If not, see . ;;; Commentary: ;; "Electric" has been used in Emacs to refer to different things. ;; Among them: ;; ;; - electric modes and buffers: modes that typically pop-up in a modal kind of ;; way a transient buffer that automatically disappears as soon as the user ;; is done with it. ;; ;; - electric keys: self inserting keys which additionally perform some side ;; operation which happens to be often convenient at that time. Examples of ;; such side operations are: reindenting code, inserting a newline, ;; ... auto-fill-mode and abbrev-mode can be considered as built-in forms of ;; electric key behavior. ;;; Code: ;; This loop is the guts for non-standard modes which retain control ;; until some event occurs. It is a `do-forever', the only way out is ;; to throw. It assumes that you have set up the keymap, window, and ;; everything else: all it does is read commands and execute them - ;; providing error messages should one occur (if there is no loop ;; function - which see). The required argument is a tag which should ;; expect a value of nil if the user decides to punt. The second ;; argument is the prompt to be used: if nil, use "->", if 'noprompt, ;; don't use a prompt, if a string, use that string as prompt, and if ;; a function of no variable, it will be evaluated in every iteration ;; of the loop and its return value, which can be nil, 'noprompt or a ;; string, will be used as prompt. Given third argument non-nil, it ;; INHIBITS quitting unless the user types C-g at toplevel. This is ;; so user can do things like C-u C-g and not get thrown out. Fourth ;; argument, if non-nil, should be a function of two arguments which ;; is called after every command is executed. The fifth argument, if ;; provided, is the state variable for the function. If the ;; loop-function gets an error, the loop will abort WITHOUT throwing ;; (moral: use unwind-protect around call to this function for any ;; critical stuff). The second argument for the loop function is the ;; conditions for any error that occurred or nil if none.
