Subject: interactive function calls
Date: Mon, 09 Jun 2008 11:43:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <g2itvl$jad$1@registered.motzarella.org> (raw)
I have this in my .emacs
(define-key mode-specific-map [?F] 'fortune-from-region)
The problem is that in the code for fortune-append we see something
like:
,----
| (unless interactive
| (save-buffer)
| (if fortune-always-compile
| (fortune-compile file)))))
|
`----
Following a chat on #emacs on irc, I tried creating my own rgrfortune
function which was then called from the key binding and then I was told
it would call 'fortune-from-region "non interactively" - but this did not
work e.g
,----
| (defun rgrfortune()
| (fortune-from-region (region-beginning) (region-end) fortune-file))
|
| (define-key mode-specific-map [?F] (lambda()(interactive)(rgrfortune)))
`----
The reason I want it called "non interactive" is simply that thats
the way to save and compile the fortune file as the fortune-append
snippet above shows.
How to do it?
