This function finds a file, creates a directory ;;; for it using the `pages-directory' command, and displays the ;;; directory. It is primarily for lists of addresses and the like. ;;; ;;; The difference between this and the `pages-directory' command is ;;; that the `pages-directory-for-addresses' command presumes a ;;; default addresses file (although you may optionally specify a file ;;; name) and it switches you to the directory for the file, but the ;;; `pages-directory' command creates a directory for the current ;;; buffer, and pops to the directory in another window. ;;; ;;; `pages-directory' now places the cursor over the header line of ;;; the page in which point was located in the pages buffer. ;;; ;;; New `set-page-delimiter' command sets the buffer local value of ;;; the page-delimiter variable. With prefix arg, resets function to ;;; original value. (Quicker to use than `edit-options'.) ;;; ;;; Version 0.02 ;;; 9 Feb 1990 - `pages-directory' now displays the ;;; first line that contains a non-blank character that follows the ;;; `page-delimiter'; this may be the rest of the line that contains ;;; the `page-delimiter' or a line following. (In most instances, the ;;; line containing a non-blank character is a line of text.) ;;; Modification includes changes to `pages-copy-header-and-position'. ;;; ;;; Each directory created by `pages-directory' now possesses a name ;;; derived on the name of the pages buffer. Consequently, you may ;;; create several different directories, one for each pages buffer. ;;; ;;; `sort-pages-in-region' no longers requires the text to start on ;;; the line immediately following the line containing the ;;; page-delimiter. ;;; ;;; `pages-directory-goto' no longer narrows to the page ;;; automatically. Instead, if you wish it to narrow to the page, set ;;; variable pages-directory-buffer-narrowing-p to a non-nil value. ;;; Default is nil; this is an experiment to see whether it is useful ;;; to see the surrounding context. ;;; ;;; Version 0.011 ;;; 2 Feb 1990 - `add-new-page': removed extraneous space. ;;; ;;; Version 0.01 ;;; 28 Jan 1990 - Initial definitions. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;; Summary ; The current page commands are: ; forward-page C-x ] ; backward-page C-x [ ; narrow-to-page C-x p ; count-lines-page C-x l ; mark-page C-x C-p (change this to C-x C-p C-m) ; sort-pages not bound ; what-page not bound ; The new page handling commands all use `C-x C-p' as a prefix. This ; means that the key binding for `mark-page' must be changed. ; Otherwise, no other changes are made to the current commands or ; their bindings. ; New page handling commands: ; next-page C-x C-p C-n ; previous-page C-x C-p C-p ; search-pages C-x C-p C-s ; add-new-page C-x C-p C-a ; sort-pages-buffer C-x C-p s ; set-page-delimiter C-x C-p C-l ; pages-directory C-x C-p C-d ; pages-directory-for-addresses C-x C-p d ; goto-page C-c C-c ;;;; Using the page commands ; ; The page commands are helpful in several different contexts. For ; example, programmers often divide source files into sections using the ; `page-delimiter'; you can use the `pages-directory' command to list ; the sections. ; You may change the buffer local value of the `page-delimiter' with ; the `set-page-delimiter' command. This command is bound to `C-x C-p ; C-l' The command prompts you for a new value for the page-delimiter. ; Called with a prefix-arg, the command resets the value of the ; page-delimiter to its original value. ;;;; Handling an address list or small data base ; You may use the page commands to handle an address list or other ; small data base. Put each address or entry on its own page. The ; first line of text in each page is a `header line' and is listed by ; the `pages-directory' or `pages-directory-for-addresses' command. ; Specifically: ; ; 1. Begin each entry with a `page-delimiter' (which is, by default, ; `^L' at the beginning of the line). ; ; 2. The first line of text in each entry is the `heading line'; it ; will appear in the pages-directory-buffer which is constructed ; using the `C-x C-p C-d' (pages-directory) command or the `C-x ; C-p d' (pages-directory-for-addresses) command. ; ; The heading line may be on the same line as the page-delimiter ; or it may follow after. It is the first non-blank line on the ; page. Conventionally, the heading line is placed on the line ; immediately following the line containing page-delimiter. ; ; 3. Follow the heading line with the body of the entry. The body ; extends up to the next `page-delimiter'. The body may be of any ; length. It is conventional to place a blank line after the last ; line of the body. ; For example, a file might look like this: ; ; FSF ; Free Software Foundation ; 675 Massachusetts Avenue ; Cambridge, MA 02139 USA ; (617) 876-3296 ; gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu ; ; ; House Subcommittee on Intellectual Property, ; U.S. House of Representatives, ; Washington, DC 20515 ; ; Congressional committee concerned with permitting or preventing ; monopolistic restictions on the use of software technology ; ; ; George Lakoff ; ``Women, Fire, and Dangerous Things: ; What Categories Reveal about the Mind'' ; 1987, Univ. of Chicago Press ; ; About philosophy, Whorfian effects, and linguistics. ; ; ; OBI (On line text collection.) ; Open Book Initiative ; c/o Software Tool & Die ; 1330 Beacon St, Brookline, MA 02146 USA ; (617) 739-0202 ; obi@world.std.com ; In this example, the heading lines are: ; ; FSF ; House Subcommittee on Intellectual Property ; George Lakoff ; OBI (On line text collection.) ; The `C-x C-p s' (sort-pages-buffer) command sorts the entries in the ; buffer alphabetically. ; You may use any of the page commands, including the `next-page', ; `previous-page', `add-new-page', `mark-page', and `search-pages' ; commands. ; You may use either the `C-x C-p d' (pages-directory-for-addresses) ; or the `C-x C-p C-d' (pages-directory) command to construct and ; dislay a directory of all the heading lines. ; In the directory, you may position the cursor over a heading line ; and type `C-c C-c' to go to the entry to which it refers in the ; pages buffer. ; When used in conjunction with the `pages-directory-for-addresses' ; command, the `C-c C-c' (pages-directory-goto) command narrows to the ; entry to which it goes. But, when used in conjunction with the ; `pages-directory' command, the `C-c C-c' (pages-directory-goto) ; command does not narrow to the entry, but widens the buffer so you ; can see the context surrounding the entry. ; If you wish, you may create several different directories, ; one for each different buffer. ;; `pages-directory-for-addresses' in detail ; The `pages-directory-for-addresses' assumes a default addresses ; file. You do not need to specify the addresses file but merely type ; `C-x C-p d' from any buffer. The command finds the file, constructs ; a directory for it, and switches you to the directory. If you call ; the command with a prefix arg, `C-u C-x C-p d', it prompts you for a ; file name. ;; `pages-directory' in detail ; Call the `pages-directory' from the buffer for which you want a ; directory created; it creates a directory for the buffer and pops ; you to the directory. ; The `pages-directory' command has several options: ; Called with a prefix arg, `C-u C-x C-p C-d', the `pages-directory' ; prompts you for a regular expression and only lists only those ; header lines that are part of pages that contain matches to the ; regexp. In the example above, `C-u C-x C-p C-d 617 RET' would ; match the telephone area code of the first and fourth entries, so ; only the header lines of those two entries would appear in the ; pages-directory-buffer. ; ; Called with a numeric argument, the `pages-directory' command ; lists the number of lines in each page. This is helpful when you ; are printing hardcopy. ; Called with a negative numeric argument, the `pages-directory' ; command lists the lengths of pages whose contents match a regexp. ;;;; Key bindings for page handling functions (global-unset-key "\C-x\C-p") (defvar ctl-x-ctl-p-map (make-sparse-keymap) "Keymap for subcommands of C-x C-p, which are for page handling.")
