Hyperbole 7.0.7: TEST RELEASE - fixed new, more efficient htype symbol table lookups
Pre-release
Pre-release
BUTTONS
- Action Buttons: A new, universal syntax for creating implicit buttons
that execute any existing action types or Elisp functions. Such
buttons are delimited by angle brackets, < >, and come in three types:
action type invocations, function calls and variable displays. See
"(hyperbole)Action Buttons" for examples and details on this exciting
new capability.
- Labeled Implicit Buttons: Optional <[labels]> that precede implicit
buttons. This enables implicit buttons to be activated by name when
in the current buffer or anywhere when added to the global buttons
file (personal button file).
- Link to Buttons: New implicit button types that link to buttons based
on their categories and labels:
In Buffer Syntax Implicit Button Type
========================================================================
<elink: explicit button label to link to: optional ebut file> link-to-ebut
<glink: global button label to link to> link-to-gbut
<ilink: implicit button label to link to: optional ibut file> link-to-ibut
- Other New Implicit Button Types:
debugger-source: Jump to the source of errors from the Python pytype package
ipython-stack-frame: Jump to the source of ipython stack traces and exceptions
- Much Faster Implicit Buttons: Major speedup in implicit button identification
and activation even with the new generalized Action implicit button type
syntax, due to internal optimizations.
- Pathname Flashing: Pathname implicit buttons now flash when activated.
- Pathname References: Pathname implicit buttons may contain both link anchors
and line and column numbers. Format is:
"<path>[#<link-anchor>]:<line-num>[:<col-num>]"
- Shell Script Link Anchors: Link anchors now work for shell script editing modes
as well using comment lines as the anchors, e.g. "myscript.sh#Env Variables".
- Dir Variable Separators: Variables in paths no longer require a trailing directory
separator. Both of these are live Hyperbole paths:
"${hyperb:dir}DEMO#Smart Mouse Keys"
"${hyperb:dir}/DEMO#Smart Mouse Keys"
DOCUMENTATION
- DEMO: New sections on Button Files and Global Buttons.
- Action Types: link-to-gbut, link-to-ibut - Added.
- hpath:native-image-suffixes: documented this setting for controlling
image types that Hyperbole displays within Emacs.
- Implicit Button Types: Split off type descriptions to this new
subsection and added these types: ripgrep-msg, ipython-stack-frame,
ilink (link to implicit button), glink (link to global button), and
elink (link to explicit button).
- DEMO (Action Buttons): Added description and examples.
- Hyperbole Manual, DEMO (Implicit Buttons): Added description and
example of implicit button labels.
- Glossary: Updated Implicit Button and Global Button entries with
changes.
KOUTLINER
- When 'c' (clip to lines per cell) is omitted from a viewspec, clipping
now changes to whatever the default number of lines per cell is
(typically, unlimited). The same goes for the 'l' spec (limit display
to a certain level of cells).
MENUS
- Pulldown Menus: Implicit-Button/Label: Added to add a label.
Implicit-Button/Rename - Added to rename the label
of an implicit button.
- Minibuffer Menus: hui-mini.el (hui:menus): Added Ibut/Label and
Ibut/Rename.
ORG MODE
- Radio Targets and Links: Smart Keys now handle these.
- Links: Smart Keys handle both internal and external Org mode links.
PROGRAMMING
- ibut:at-type-p: Added to test if point is on a specific type of
implicit button.
- hypb:region-with-text-property-value: Added and used in hysy-org.el.
- hsys-org-mode-function, hsys-org-mode-p: Added to determine when
hsys-org actions are activated.
- ebut:key-src-set-buffer, hbut:key-src-set-buffer, hbut:key-list,
hbut:ebut-key-list, hbut:ibut-key-list, hbut:label-list): Added
to allow selection of labeled Hyperbole buttons in currrent buffer by
name.
- gbut:get, hbut:map, ibut:label-map, ibut:key-src, ibut:key-to-label,
ibut:label-to-key, hui:ebut-act, ibut:summarize, ibut:label-start,
ibut:label-end, ibut:label-p, ibut:get, hui:ibut-label-create,
hui:ibut-rename, hui:ibut-message, ibut:alist, ibut:list, ibut:map,
ibut:next-occurrence, ibut:label-regexp, gbut:ibut-key-list, ebut:to,
gbut:to, ibut:to, ibut:label-separator, hbut:label-regexp,
ibut:rename, hbut:get: Added to support implicit button labels and
links to buttons.
hbut:label-p: Updated to handle implicit button labels.
ibut:label-separator-regexp, hbut:outside-comment-p: Added.
- elink, elink:start, elink:end: Added for in-buffer links to explicit buttons.
glink, glink:start, glink:end: Added for in-buffer links to global buttons.
ilink, ilink:start, ilink:end: Added for in-buffer links to implicit buttons.
- hsys-org-set-ibut-label: Added and used in org-mode ibtype.
org-mode, hsys-org-at-block-start-p: Added Action Key activation of
Org blocks when on 1st line of def.
SMART (ACTION AND ASSIST) KEYS
- hpath:find-program: Changed to prioritize hpath:native-image-suffixes
over hpath:internal-display-alist over hpath:external-display-alist-macos
instead of the reverse. This prevents external viewers from being
used when internal viewers are also in effect.
