1116:
1117: Normally, when a new mark is set, the old one should go on the stack.
1118: This is why most applications should use push-mark, not set-mark.
1119:
1120: Novice programmers often try to use the mark for the wrong purposes.
1121: The mark saves a location for the user's convenience.
1122: Most editing commands should not alter the mark.
1123: To remember a location for internal use in the Lisp program,
1124: store it in a Lisp variable. Example:

1174: From START to END, replace FROMCHAR with TOCHAR each time it occurs.
1175: If optional arg NOUNDO is non-nil, don't record this change for undo

1178: When called from a program, expects two arguments,
1179: character numbers specifying the stretch to be deleted.Fwiden
1180: Remove restrictions from current buffer, allowing full text to be seen and edited.Fnarrow-to-region
1181: Restrict editing in this buffer to the current region.
1182: The rest of the text becomes temporarily invisible and untouchable
1183: but is not deleted; if you save the buffer in a file, the invisible
1184: text is included in the file. \[widen] makes all visible again.
1185:
1186: When calling from a program, pass two arguments; character numbers
1187: bounding the text that should remain visible.Fsave-restriction
1188: Execute the body, undoing at the end any changes to current buffer's restrictions.
1189: Changes to restrictions are made by narrow-to-region or by widen.
1190: Thus, the restrictions are the same after this function as they were before it.
1191: The value returned is that returned by the last form in the body.
1192:
1193: This function can be confused if, within the body, you widen
1194: and then make changes outside the area within the saved restrictions.
1195:
1196: Note: if you are using both save-excursion and save-restriction,
1197: use save-excursion outermost.Fmessage

1210: %c means print a number as a single character.
1211: The argument used by %s must be a string or a symbol;
1212: the argument used by %d, %b, %o, %x or %c must be a number.Fchar-equal
1213: T if args (both characters (numbers)) match. May ignore case.
1214: Case is ignored if the current buffer specifies to do so.Fgetenv
1215: One arg VAR, a string. Return the value of environment variable VAR, as a string.Finteractive
1216: Specify a way of parsing arguments for interactive use of a function.
1217: For example, write
1218: (defun fun (arg) "Doc string" (interactive "p") ...use arg...)
1219: to make arg be the prefix numeric argument when foo is called as a command.
1220: This is actually a declaration rather than a function;
1221: it tells call-interactively how to read arguments
1222: to pass to the function.
1223: When actually called, interactive just returns nil.
1224:
1225: The argument of interactive is usually a string containing a code letter
1226: followed by a prompt. (Some code letters do not use I/O to get
1227: the argument and do not need prompts.) To prompt for multiple arguments,
1228: give a code letter, its prompt, a newline, and another code letter, etc.
1229: If the argument is not a string, it is evaluated to get a list of
1230: arguments to pass to the function.
1231: Just (interactive) means pass no args when calling interactively.
1232:
1233: Code letters available are:
1234: a -- Function name: symbol with a function definition.
1235: b -- Name of existing buffer.

1243: k -- Key sequence (string).
1244: m -- Value of mark as number. Does not do I/O.
1245: n -- Number read using minibuffer.
1246: N -- Prefix arg converted to number, or if none, do like code `n'.
1247: p -- Prefix arg converted to number. Does not do I/O.
1248: P -- Prefix arg in raw form. Does not do I/O.
1249: r -- Region: point and mark as 2 numeric args, smallest first. Does no I/O.
1250: s -- Any string.
1251: S -- Any symbol.
1252: v -- Variable name: symbol that is user-variable-p.
1253: x -- Lisp expression read but not evaluated.
1254: X -- Lisp expression read and evaluated.
1255: In addition, if the first character of the string is '*' then an error is
1256: signaled if the buffer is read-only.
1257: This happens before reading any arguments.Fcall-interactively
1258: Call FUNCTION, reading args according to its interactive calling specs.
1259: The function contains a specification of how to do the argument reading.
1260: In the case of user-defined functions, this is specified by placing a call
1261: to the function `interactive' at the top level of the function body.
1262: See `interactive'.
1263:
1264: Optional second arg RECORD-FLAG non-nil
1265: means unconditionally put this command in the command-history.
1266: Otherwise, this is done only if an arg is read using the minibuffer.Fprefix-numeric-value
1267: Return numeric meaning of raw prefix argument ARG.
1268: A raw prefix argument is what you get from (interactive "P").Vprefix-arg
1269: The value of the prefix argument for the next editing command.
1270: It may be a number, or the symbol - for just a minus sign as arg,
1271: or a list whose car is a number for just one or more C-U's
1272: or nil if no argument has been specified.
1273:
1274: You cannot examine this variable to find the argument for this command
1275: since it has been set to nil by the time you can look.
1276: Instead, you should use the variable current-prefix-arg, although
1277: normally commands can get this prefix argument with (interactive "P").Vcurrent-prefix-arg
1278: The value of the prefix argument for this editing command.
1279: It may be a number, or the symbol - for just a minus sign as arg,
1280: or a list whose car is a number for just one or more C-U's
1281: or nil if no argument has been specified.
1282: This is what (interactive "P") returns.Vcommand-history
1283: List of recent commands that read arguments from terminal.
1284: Each command is represented as a form to evaluate.For
1285: Eval args until one of them yields non-NIL, then return that value.
1286: The remaining args are not evalled at all.
1287: If all args return NIL, return NIL.Fand
1288: Eval args until one of them yields NIL, then return NIL.
1289: The remaining args are not evalled at all.
1290: If no arg yields NIL, return the last arg's value.Fif
1291: (if C T E...) if C yields non-NIL do T, else do E...
1292: Returns the value of T or the value of the last of the E's.
1293: There may be no E's; then if C yields NIL, the value is NIL.Fcond
1294: (cond CLAUSES...) tries each clause until one succeeds.
1295: Each clause looks like (C BODY...). C is evaluated
1296: and, if the value is non-nil, this clause succeeds:
1297: then the expressions in BODY are evaluated and the last one's
1298: value is the value of the cond expression.
1299: If a clause looks like (C), C's value if non-nil is returned from cond.
1300: If no clause succeeds, cond returns nil.Fprogn
1301: Eval arguments in sequence, and return the value of the last one.Fprog1
1302: Eval arguments in sequence, then return the FIRST arg's value.
1303: This value is saved during the evaluation of the remaining args,
1304: whose values are discarded.Fprog2
1305: Eval arguments in sequence, then return the SECOND arg's value.
1306: This value is saved during the evaluation of the remaining args,
1307: whose values are discarded.Fsetq
1308: (setq SYM VAL SYM VAL ...) sets each SYM to the value of its VAL.
1309: The SYMs are not evaluated. Thus (setq x y) sets x to the value of y.

1311: Return the argument, without evaluating it. (quote x) yields x.Ffunction
1312: Quote a function object.

1314: but causes the compiler to compile the argument as a function
1315: if it is not a symbol.Finteractive-p
1316: Return t if function in which this appears was called interactively.
1317: This means that the function was called with call-interactively (which
1318: includes being called as the binding of a key)
1319: and input is currently coming from the keyboard (not in keyboard macro).Fdefun
1320: (defun NAME ARGLIST [DOCSTRING] BODY...) defines NAME as a function.
1321: The definition is (lambda ARGLIST [DOCSTRING] BODY...).
1322: See also the function interactive .Fdefmacro
1323: (defmacro NAME ARGLIST [DOCSTRING] BODY...) defines NAME as a macro.
1324: The definition is (macro lambda ARGLIST [DOCSTRING] BODY...).
1325: When the macro is called, as in (NAME ARGS...),
1326: the function (lambda ARGLIST BODY...) is applied to
1327: the list ARGS... as it appears in the expression,
1328: and the result should be a form to be evaluated instead of the original.Fdefvar
1329: (defvar SYMBOL INITVALUE DOCSTRING) defines SYMBOL as an advertised variable.
1330: INITVALUE is evaluated, and used to set SYMBOL, only if SYMBOL's value is void.
1331: INITVALUE and DOCSTRING are optional.
1332: If DOCSTRING starts with *, this variable is identified as a user option.
1333: This means that M-x set-variable and M-x edit-options recognize it.
1334: If INITVALUE is missing, SYMBOL's value is not set.Fdefconst
1335: (defconst SYMBOL INITVALUE DOCSTRING) defines SYMBOL as a constant variable.
1336: The intent is that programs do not change this value (but users may).
1337: Always sets the value of SYMBOL to the result of evalling INITVALUE.
1338: DOCSTRING is optional.
1339: If DOCSTRING starts with *, this variable is identified as a user option.
1340: This means that M-x set-variable and M-x edit-options recognize it.Fuser-variable-p
1341: Returns t if VARIABLE is intended to be set and modified by users,
1342: as opposed to by programs.
1343: Determined by whether the first character of the documentation
1344: for the variable is "*"Flet*

1349: Each VALUEFORM can refer to the symbols already bound by this VARLIST.Flet
1350: (let VARLIST BODY...) binds variables according to VARLIST then executes BODY.
1351: The value of the last form in BODY is returned.
1352: Each element of VARLIST is a symbol (which is bound to NIL)

1354: All the VALUEFORMs are evalled before any symbols are bound.Fwhile
1355: (while TEST BODY...) if TEST yields non-NIL, execute the BODY forms and repeat.Fmacroexpand
1356: If FORM is a macro call, expand it.
1357: If the result of expansion is another macro call, expand it, etc.
1358: Return the ultimate expansion.
1359: The second optional arg ENVIRONMENT species an environment of macro
1360: definitions to shadow the loaded ones for use in file byte-compilation.Fcatch
1361: (catch TAG BODY...) perform BODY allowing nonlocal exits using (throw TAG).
1362: TAG is evalled to get the tag to use. throw to that tag exits this catch.
1363: Then the BODY is executed. If no throw happens, the value of the last BODY
1364: form is returned from catch. If a throw happens, it specifies the value to
1365: return from catch.Fthrow
1366: (throw TAG VALUE): throw to the catch for TAG and return VALUE from it.
1367: Both TAG and VALUE are evalled.Funwind-protect
1368: Do BODYFORM, protecting with UNWINDFORMS.
1369: Usage looks like (unwind-protect BODYFORM UNWINDFORMS...)
1370: If BODYFORM completes normally, its value is returned
1371: after executing the UNWINDFORMS.
1372: If BODYFORM exits nonlocally, the UNWINDFORMS are executed anyway.Fcondition-case
1373: Regain control when an error is signaled.
1374: (condition-case VAR BODYFORM HANDLERS...)
1375: executes BODYFORM and returns its value if no error happens.
1376: Each element of HANDLERS looks like (CONDITION-NAME BODY...)
1377: where the BODY is made of Lisp expressions.
1378: The handler is applicable to an error
1379: if CONDITION-NAME is one of the error's condition names.
1380: When a handler handles an error,
1381: control returns to the condition-case and the handler BODY... is executed
1382: with VAR bound to (SIGNALED-CONDITIONS . SIGNAL-DATA).
1383: The value of the last BODY form is returned from the condition-case.
1384: See SIGNAL for more info.Fsignal
1385: Signal an error. Args are SIGNAL-NAME, and associated DATA.
1386: A signal name is a symbol with an error-conditions property
1387: that is a list of condition names.
1388: A handler for any of those names will get to handle this signal.
1389: The symbol error should always be one of them.
1390:
1391: DATA should be a list. Its elements are printed as part of the error message.
1392: If the signal is handled, DATA is made available to the handler.
1393: See condition-case.Fcommandp
1394: T if FUNCTION makes provisions for interactive calling.
1395: This means it contains a description for how to read arguments to give it.
1396: The value is nil for an invalid function or a symbol with no function definition.
1397:
1398: Interactively callable functions include strings (treated as keyboard macros),
1399: lambda-expressions that contain a top-level call to interactive ,
1400: autoload definitions made by autoload with non-nil fourth argument,
1401: and some of the built-in functions of Lisp.
1402:
1403: Also, a symbol is commandp if its function definition is commandp.Fautoload
1404: Define FUNCTION to autoload from FILE.
1405: FUNCTION is a symbol; FILE is a file name string to pass to load.
1406: Third arg DOCSTRING is documentation for the function.
1407: Fourth arg INTERACTIVE if non-nil says function can be called interactively.
1408: Fifth arg MACRO if non-nil says the function is really a macro.
1409: Third through fifth args give info about the real definition.
1410: They default to nil.
1411: If FUNCTION is already defined other than as an autoload,
1412: this does nothing and returns nil.Feval
1413: Evaluate FORM and return its value.Fapply
1414: Call FUNCTION, passing remaining arguments to it. The last argument
1415: is a list of arguments to pass.

1426: Typing C-G sets quit-flag non-nil, regardless of inhibit-quit.Vinhibit-quit
1427: Non-nil inhibits C-g quitting from happening immediately.
1428: Note that quit-flag will still be set by typing C-g,
1429: so a quit will be signalled as soon as inhibit-quit is nil.
1430: To prevent this happening, set quit-flag to nil
1431: before making inhibit-quit nil.Vstack-trace-on-error
1432: *Non-nil means automatically display a backtrace buffer
1433: after any error that is handled by the editor command loop.Vdebug-on-error

1470: This is a new alist which represents the same mapping
1471: from objects to objects, but does not share the alist structure with ALIST.
1472: The objects mapped (cars and cdrs of elements of the alist)
1473: are shared, however.Fsubstring
1474: Return a substring of STRING, starting at index FROM and ending before TO.
1475: TO may be nil or omitted; then the substring runs to the end of STRING.
1476: If FROM or TO is negative, it counts from the end.Fnthcdr
1477: Takes cdr N times on LIST, returns the result.Fnth
1478: Returns the Nth element of LIST.

1933: the minibuffer, then read and evaluate the result.Frepeat-complex-command
1934: Edit and re-evaluate last complex command, or ARGth from last.
1935: A complex command is one which used the minibuffer.
1936: The command is placed in the minibuffer as a Lisp form for editing.
1937: The result is executed, repeating the command as changed.
1938: If the command has been changed or is not the most recent previous command
1939: it is added to the front of the command history.
1940: Whilst editing the command, the following commands are available:

1977: (If you want to kill and then yank immediately, use \[copy-region-as-kill].)
1978:
1979: This is the primitive for programs to kill text (as opposed to deleting it).
1980: Supply two arguments, character numbers indicating the stretch of text
1981: to be killed.
1982: Any command that calls this function is a "kill command".

2029: Return this buffer's mark value as integer, or nil if no mark.
2030: If you are using this in an editing command, you are most likely making
2031: a mistake; see the documentation of `set-mark'.Fset-mark
2032: Set this buffer's mark to POS. Don't use this function!
2033: That is to say, don't use this function unless you want
2034: the user to see that the mark has moved, and you want the previous
2035: mark position to be lost.
2036:
2037: Normally, when a new mark is set, the old one should go on the stack.
2038: This is why most applications should use push-mark, not set-mark.
2039:
2040: Novice emacs-lisp programmers often try to use the mark for the wrong
2041: purposes. The mark saves a location for the user's convenience.
2042: Most editing commands should not alter the mark.
2043: To remember a location for internal use in the Lisp program,
2044: store it in a Lisp variable. Example:
2045:
2046: (let ((beg (point))) (forward-line 1) (delete-region beg (point))).Vmark-ring

2057: Displays "Mark set" unless the optional second arg NOMSG is non-nil.
2058:
2059: Novice emacs-lisp programmers often try to use the mark for the wrong
2060: purposes. See the documentation of `set-mark' for more information.Fpop-mark
2061: Pop off mark ring into the buffer's actual mark.
2062: Does not set point. Does nothing if mark ring is empty.Fexchange-point-and-mark

2064: Move cursor vertically down ARG lines.
2065: If there is no character in the target line exactly under the current column,
2066: the cursor is positioned after the character in that line which spans this
2067: column, or at the end of the line if it is not long enough.
2068: If there is no line in the buffer after this one,
2069: a newline character is inserted to create a line
2070: and the cursor moves to that line.
2071:
2072: The command \[set-goal-column] can be used to create
2073: a semipermanent goal column to which this command always moves.
2074: Then it does not try to move vertically.
2075:
2076: If you are thinking of using this in a Lisp program, consider
2077: using `forward-line' instead. It is usually easier to use
2078: and more reliable (no dependence on goal column, etc.).Fprevious-line
2079: Move cursor vertically up ARG lines.
2080: If there is no character in the target line exactly over the current column,
2081: the cursor is positioned after the character in that line which spans this
2082: column, or at the end of the line if it is not long enough.
2083:
2084: The command \[set-goal-column] can be used to create
2085: a semipermanent goal column to which this command always moves.
2086: Then it does not try to move vertically.
2087:
2088: If you are thinking of using this in a Lisp program, consider using
2089: `forward-line' with negative argument instead.. It is usually easier
2090: to use and more reliable (no dependence on goal column, etc.).Vtrack-eol
2091: *Non-nil means vertical motion starting at the end of a line should keep to ends of lines.
2092: This means moving to the end of each line moved onto.Vgoal-column

2096: Set the current horizontal position as a goal for \[next-line] and \[previous-line].
2097: Those commands will move to this position in the line moved to
2098: rather than trying to keep the same horizontal position.
2099: With a non-nil argument, clears out the goal column
2100: so that \[next-line] and \[previous-line] resume vertical motion.Ftranspose-chars
2101: Interchange characters around point, moving forward one character.
2102: With prefix arg ARG, effect is to take character before point
2103: and drag it forward past ARG other characters (backward if ARG negative).
2104: If no argument and at end of line, the previous two chars are exchanged.Ftranspose-words
2105: Interchange words around point, leaving point at end of them.

2131: and then align or create a comment on this line at that column.Fkill-comment
2132: Kill the comment on this line, if any.
2133: With argument, kill comments on that many lines starting with this one.Fbackward-word
2134: Move backward until encountering the end of a word.

2222: that the old file had will now refer to the backup file.
2223: The new file is owned by you and its group is defaulted.
2224:
2225: Copying means that Emacs copies the existing file into the backup file,

2227: that the old file had will now refer to the new (edited) file.
2228: The file's owner and group are unchanged.
2229:

2233: *Non-nil means always use copying to create backup files.
2234: See documentation of variable make-backup-files.Vbackup-by-copying-when-linked
2235: *Non-nil means use copying to create backups for files with multiple names.
2236: This causes the alternate names to refer to the latest version as edited.
2237: This variable is relevant only if backup-by-copying is nil.Vbackup-by-copying-when-mismatch
2238: *Non-nil means create backups by copying if this preserves owner or group.
2239: Renaming may still be used (subject to control of other variables)
2240: when it would not result in changing the owner or group of the file;
2241: that is, for files which are owned by you and whose group matches
2242: the default for a new file created there by you.
2243: This variable is relevant only if backup-by-copying is nil.Vbuffer-offer-save
2244: *Non-nil in a buffer means offer to save the buffer on exit

2278: and the rest are not called.Vinhibit-local-variables
2279: *Non-nil means query before obeying a file's local-variables list.
2280: This applies when the local-variables list is scanned automatically

2293: May create a new window, or reuse an existing one;
2294: see the function display-buffer.Ffind-file-read-only
2295: Edit file FILENAME but don't save without confirmation.
2296: Like find-file but marks buffer as read-only.Ffind-alternate-file
2297: Find file FILENAME, select its buffer, kill previous buffer.
2298: If the current buffer now contains an empty file that you just visited
2299: (presumably by mistake), use this command to visit the file you really want.Fcreate-file-buffer
2300: Create a suitably named buffer for visiting FILENAME, and return it.
2301: FILENAME (sans directory) is used unchanged if that name is free;
2302: otherwise a string <2> or <3> or ... is appended to get an unused name.Ffind-file-noselect
2303: Read file FILENAME into a buffer and return the buffer.
2304: If a buffer exists visiting FILENAME, return that one,
2305: but verify that the file has not changed since visited or saved.

2307: Called after finding a file and by the default revert function.
2308: Sets buffer mode, parses local variables.

2314: Also sets up any specified local variables of the file.
2315: Uses the visited file name, the -*- line, and the local variables spec.
2316:
2317: This function is called automatically from `find-file'. In that case,
2318: if `inhibit-local-variables' is non-`nil' we require confirmation before
2319: processing a local variables spec. If you run `normal-mode' explicitly,
2320: confirmation is never required.Fset-auto-mode
2321: Select major mode appropriate for current buffer.
2322: May base decision on visited file name (See variable auto-mode-list)
2323: or on buffer contents (-*- line or local variables spec), but does not look
2324: for the "mode:" local variable. For that, use hack-local-variables.Fhack-local-variables
2325: Parse, and bind or evaluate as appropriate, any local variables
2326: for current buffer.Fset-visited-file-name
2327: Change name of file visited in current buffer to FILENAME.

2338: of the new file to agree with the old modes.Ffile-name-sans-versions
2339: Return FILENAME sans backup versions or strings.
2340: This is a separate procedure so your site-init or startup file can

2356: to become a backup when the next save is done.
2357: With 2 or 3 \[universal-argument]'s,
2358: unconditionally makes the previous version into a backup file.
2359: With argument of 0, never makes the previous version into a backup file.
2360:
2361: If a file's name is FOO, the names of its numbered backup versions are
2362: FOO.~i~ for various integers i. A non-numbered backup file is called FOO~.
2363: Numeric backups (rather than FOO~) will be made if value of
2364: `version-control' is not the atom `never' and either there are already
2365: numeric versions of the file being backed up, or `version-control' is
2366: non-nil.
2367: We don't want excessive versions piling up, so there are variables

2613: combining typeoutoid buffer listing with menuoid buffer selection.
2614:
2615: This pops up a buffer describing the set of emacs buffers.
2616: If the very next character typed is a space then the buffer list
2617: window disappears.
2618:
2619: Otherwise, one may move around in the buffer list window, marking
2620: buffers to be selected, saved or deleted.
2621:
2622: To exit and select a new buffer, type Space when the cursor is on the

2637:
2638: This pops up a window with the Command History listing. If the very
2639: next character typed is Space, the listing is killed and the previous
2640: window configuration is restored. Otherwise, you can browse in the
2641: Command History with Return moving down and Delete moving up, possibly
2642: selecting an expression to be redone with Space or quitting with `Q'.
2643:
2644: Like Emacs-Lisp Mode except that characters do not insert themselves and
2645: Tab and linefeed do not indent. Instead these commands are provided:
2646: Space or ! edit then evaluate current line in history inside
2647: the ORIGINAL buffer which invoked this mode.
2648: The previous window configuration is restored
2649: unless the invoked command changes it.

2661: Instead, the .emacs file should do (setq term-setup-hook 'edt-emulation-on)
2662: Then this function will be called at the time when it will work.Ffortran-mode
2663: Major mode for editing fortran code.

3073: The sixth argument REPLYBUFFER is a buffer whose contents
3074: should be yanked if the user types C-c C-y.Vmail-use-rfc822
3075: *If non-nil, use a full, hairy RFC822 parser on mail addresses.
3076: Otherwise, (the default) use a smaller, somewhat faster and
3077: often-correct parser.Fserver-start
3078: Allow this Emacs process to be a server for client processes.
3079: This starts a server communications subprocess through which
3080: client "editors" can send your editing commands to this Emacs job.
3081: To use the server, set up the program `etc/emacsclient' in the
3082: Emacs distribution as your standard "editor".
3083:
3084: Prefix arg means just kill any existing server communications subprocess.Frun-lisp
3085: Run an inferior Lisp process, input and output via buffer *lisp*.Fshell
3086: Run an inferior shell, with I/O through buffer *shell*.
3087: If buffer exists but shell process is not running, make new shell.
3088: Program used comes from variable explicit-shell-file-name,
3089: or (if that is nil) from the ESHELL environment variable,
3090: or else from SHELL if there is no ESHELL.
3091: If a file ~/.emacs_SHELLNAME exists, it is given as initial input
3092: (Note that this may lose due to a timing error if the shell
3093: discards input when it starts up.)
3094: The buffer is put in shell-mode, giving commands for sending input
3095: and controlling the subjobs of the shell. See shell-mode.
3096: See also variable shell-prompt-pattern.
3097:
3098: The shell file name (sans directories) is used to make a symbol name
3099: such as `explicit-csh-arguments'. If that symbol is a variable,
3100: its value is used as a list of arguments when invoking the shell.
3101: Otherwise, one argument `-i' is passed to the shell.
3102:
3103: Note that many people's .cshrc files unconditionally clear the prompt.
3104: If yours does, you will probably want to change it.Fsort-lines
3105: Sort lines in region alphabetically; argument means descending order.
3106: Called from a program, there are three arguments:
3107: REVERSE (non-nil means reverse order), BEG and END (region to sort).Fsort-paragraphs
3108: Sort paragraphs in region alphabetically; argument means descending order.
3109: Called from a program, there are three arguments:
3110: REVERSE (non-nil means reverse order), BEG and END (region to sort).Fsort-pages
3111: Sort pages in region alphabetically; argument means descending order.
3112: Called from a program, there are three arguments:
3113: REVERSE (non-nil means reverse order), BEG and END (region to sort).Fsort-numeric-fields
3114: Sort lines in region numerically by the ARGth field of each line.
3115: Fields are separated by whitespace and numbered from 1 up.
3116: Specified field must contain a number in each line of the region.
3117: With a negative arg, sorts by the -ARG'th field, in reverse order.
3118: Called from a program, there are three arguments:
3119: FIELD, BEG and END. BEG and END specify region to sort.Fsort-fields
3120: Sort lines in region lexicographically by the ARGth field of each line.
3121: Fields are separated by whitespace and numbered from 1 up.
3122: With a negative arg, sorts by the -ARG'th field, in reverse order.
3123: Called from a program, there are three arguments:
3124: FIELD, BEG and END. BEG and END specify region to sort.Fsort-columns
3125: Sort lines in region alphabetically by a certain range of columns.
3126: For the purpose of this command, the region includes
3127: the entire line that point is in and the entire line the mark is in.
3128: The column positions of point and mark bound the range of columns to sort on.
3129: A prefix argument means sort into reverse order.
3130:
3131: Note that sort-columns uses the sort utility program and therefore
3132: cannot work on text containing TAB characters. Use M-x untabify
3133: to convert tabs to spaces before sorting.Fsort-regexp-fields
3134: Sort the region lexicographically as specifed by RECORD-REGEXP and KEY.
3135: RECORD-REGEXP specifies the textual units which should be sorted.
3136: For example, to sort lines RECORD-REGEXP would be "^.*$"
3137: KEY specifies the part of each record (ie each match for RECORD-REGEXP)
3138: is to be used for sorting.
3139: If it is "\digit" then the digit'th "$...$" match field from
3140: RECORD-REGEXP is used.
3141: If it is "\&" then the whole record is used.
3142: Otherwise, it is a regular-expression for which to search within the record.
3143: If a match for KEY is not found within a record then that record is ignored.
3144:
3145: With a negative prefix arg sorts in reverse order.
3146:
3147: For example: to sort lines in the region by the first word on each line
3148: starting with the letter "f",
3149: RECORD-REGEXP would be "^.*$" and KEY "\<f\w*\>"Fspell-buffer
3150: Check spelling of every word in the buffer.
3151: For each incorrect word, you are asked for the correct spelling
3152: and then put into a query-replace to fix some or all occurrences.
3153: If you do not want to change a word, just give the same word
3154: as its "correct" spelling; then the query replace is skipped.Fspell-region
3155: Like spell-buffer but applies only to region.
3156: From program, applies from START to END.Fspell-word
3157: Check spelling of word at or before point.
3158: If it is not correct, ask user for the correct spelling
3159: and query-replace the entire buffer to substitute it.Fspell-string
3160: Check spelling of string supplied as argument.Funtabify
3161: Convert all tabs in region to multiple spaces, preserving columns.
3162: The variable tab-width controls the action.Ftabify
3163: Convert multiple spaces in region to tabs when possible.
3164: A group of spaces is partially replaced by tabs
3165: when this can be done without changing the column they end at.
3166: The variable tab-width controls the action.Ffind-tag
3167: Find tag (in current tag table) whose name contains TAGNAME.
3168: Selects the buffer that the tag is contained in
3169: and puts point at its definition.
3170: If TAGNAME is a null string, the expression in the buffer
3171: around or before point is used as the tag name.
3172: If second arg NEXT is non-nil (interactively, with prefix arg),
3173: searches for the next tag in the tag table
3174: that matches the tagname used in the previous find-tag.
3175:
3176: See documentation of variable tags-file-name.Ffind-tag-other-window
3177: Find tag (in current tag table) whose name contains TAGNAME.
3178: Selects the buffer that the tag is contained in in another window
3179: and puts point at its definition.
3180: If TAGNAME is a null string, the expression in the buffer
3181: around or before point is used as the tag name.
3182: If second arg NEXT is non-nil (interactively, with prefix arg),
3183: searches for the next tag in the tag table
3184: that matches the tagname used in the previous find-tag.
3185:
3186: See documentation of variable tags-file-name.Flist-tags
3187: Display list of tags in file FILE.
3188: FILE should not contain a directory spec
3189: unless it has one in the tag table.Fnext-file

3191: Non-nil argument (prefix arg, if interactive)
3192: initializes to the beginning of the list of files in the tag table.Ftags-apropos
3193: Display list of all tags in tag table REGEXP matches.Ftags-loop-continue
3194: Continue last \[tags-search] or \[tags-query-replace] command.
3195: Used noninteractively with non-nil argument
3196: to begin such a command. See variable tags-loop-form.Ftag-table-files
3197: Return a list of files in the current tag table.
3198: File names returned are absolute.Ftags-query-replace
3199: Query-replace-regexp FROM with TO through all files listed in tag table.
3200: Third arg DELIMITED (prefix arg) means replace only word-delimited matches.
3201: If you exit (C-G or ESC), you can resume the query-replace
3202: with the command \[tags-loop-continue].
3203:
3204: See documentation of variable tags-file-name.Ftags-search
3205: Search through all files listed in tag table for match for REGEXP.
3206: Stops when a match is found.
3207: To continue searching for next match, use command \[tags-loop-continue].
3208:
3209: See documentation of variable tags-file-name.Fvisit-tags-table
3210: Tell tags commands to use tag table file FILE.
3211: FILE should be the name of a file created with the `etags' program.
3212: A directory name is ok too; it means file TAGS in that directory.Ftelnet
3213: Open a network login connection to host named HOST (a string).
3214: Communication with HOST is recorded in a buffer *HOST-telnet*.
3215: Normally input is edited in Emacs and sent a line at a time.Fterminal-emulator
3216: Under a display-terminal emulator in BUFFER, run PROGRAM on arguments ARGS.
3217: ARGS is a list of argument-strings. Remaining arguments are WIDTH and HEIGHT.
3218: BUFFER's contents are made an image of the display generated by that program,
3219: and any input typed when BUFFER is the current Emacs buffer is sent to that
3220: program an keyboard input.
3221:
3222: Interactively, BUFFER defaults to "*terminal*" and PROGRAM and ARGS
3223: are parsed from an input-string using your usual shell.
3224: WIDTH and HEIGHT are determined from the size of the current window
3225: -- WIDTH will be one less than the window's width, HEIGHT will be its height.
3226:
3227: To switch buffers and leave the emulator, or to give commands
3228: to the emulator itself (as opposed to the program running under it),
3229: type Control-^. The following character is an emulator command.
3230: Type Control-^ twice to send it to the subprogram.
3231: This escape character may be changed using the variable `terminal-escape-char'.
3232:
3233: `Meta' characters may not currently be sent through the terminal emulator.
3234:
3235: Here is a list of some of the variables which control the behaviour
3236: of the emulator -- see their documentation for more information:
3237: terminal-escape-char, terminal-scrolling, terminal-more-processing,
3238: terminal-redisplay-interval.
3239:
3240: This function calls the value of terminal-mode-hook if that exists
3241: and is non-nil after the terminal buffer has been set up and the
3242: subprocess started.
3243:
3244: Presently with `termcap' only; if somebody sends us code to make this
3245: work with `terminfo' we will try to use it.Flatex-mode
3246: Major mode for editing files of input for LaTeX.
3247: Makes $ and } display the characters they match.
3248: Makes " insert `` when it seems to be the beginning of a quotation,
3249: and '' when it appears to be the end; it inserts " only after a \.
3250:
3251: Use \[TeX-region] to run LaTeX on the current region, plus the preamble
3252: copied from the top of the file (containing \documentstyle, etc.),
3253: running LaTeX under a special subshell. \[TeX-buffer] does the whole buffer.
3254: \[TeX-print] prints the .dvi file made by either of these.
3255:
3256: Use \[validate-TeX-buffer] to check buffer for paragraphs containing
3257: mismatched $'s or braces.
3258:
3259: Special commands:
3260: \{TeX-mode-map}
3261:
3262: Mode variables:
3263: TeX-directory
3264: Directory in which to create temporary files for TeX jobs
3265: run by \[TeX-region] or \[TeX-buffer].

3268: TeX-show-queue-command
3269: Command string used by \[TeX-show-print-queue] to show the print
3270: queue that \[TeX-print] put your job on.
3271:
3272: Entering LaTeX mode calls the value of text-mode-hook,
3273: then the value of TeX-mode-hook, and then the value
3274: of LaTeX-mode-hook.Fplain-tex-mode
3275: Major mode for editing files of input for plain TeX.
3276: Makes $ and } display the characters they match.
3277: Makes " insert `` when it seems to be the beginning of a quotation,
3278: and '' when it appears to be the end; it inserts " only after a \.
3279:
3280: Use \[TeX-region] to run TeX on the current region, plus a "header"
3281: copied from the top of the file (containing macro definitions, etc.),
3282: running TeX under a special subshell. \[TeX-buffer] does the whole buffer.
3283: \[TeX-print] prints the .dvi file made by either of these.
3284:
3285: Use \[validate-TeX-buffer] to check buffer for paragraphs containing
3286: mismatched $'s or braces.
3287:
3288: Special commands:
3289: \{TeX-mode-map}
3290:
3291: Mode variables:
3292: TeX-directory
3293: Directory in which to create temporary files for TeX jobs
3294: run by \[TeX-region] or \[TeX-buffer].

3299: queue that \[TeX-print] put your job on.
3300:
3301: Entering plain-TeX mode calls the value of text-mode-hook,
3302: then the value of TeX-mode-hook, and then the value
3303: of plain-TeX-mode-hook.Ftex-mode
3304: Major mode for editing files of input for TeX or LaTeX.
3305: Trys to intuit whether this file is for plain TeX or LaTeX and
3306: calls plain-tex-mode or latex-mode. If it cannot be determined
3307: (e.g., there are no commands in the file), the value of
3308: TeX-default-mode is used.Ftexinfo-mode
3309: Major mode for editing texinfo files.
3310: These are files that are input for TEX and also to be turned
3311: into Info files by \[texinfo-format-buffer].
3312: These files must be written in a very restricted and
3313: modified version of TEX input format.
3314:
3315: As for editing commands, like text-mode except for syntax table,
3316: which is set up so expression commands skip texinfo bracket groups.Ftexinfo-format-buffer
3317: Process the current buffer as texinfo code, into an Info file.
3318: The Info file output is generated in a buffer
3319: visiting the Info file names specified in the @setfilename command.
3320:
3321: Non-nil argument (prefix, if interactive) means don't make tag table
3322: and don't split the file if large. You can use Info-tagify and
3323: Info-split to do these manually.Ftexinfo-format-region
3324: Convert the the current region of the Texinfo file to Info format.
3325: This lets you see what that part of the file will look like in Info.
3326: The command is bound to \[texinfo-format-region]. The text that is
3327: converted to Info is stored in a temporary buffer.Fbatch-texinfo-format
3328: Runs texinfo-format-buffer on the files remaining on the command line.
3329: Must be used only with -batch, and kills emacs on completion.
3330: Each file will be processed even if an error occurred previously.
3331: For example, invoke
3332: "emacs -batch -funcall batch-texinfo-format $docs/ ~/*.texinfo".Fdisplay-time
3333: Display current time and load level in mode line of each buffer.
3334: Updates automatically every minute.
3335: If display-time-day-and-date is non-nil, the current day and date
3336: are displayed as well.Funderline-region
3337: Underline all nonblank characters in the region.
3338: Works by overstriking underscores.
3339: Called from program, takes two arguments START and END
3340: which specify the range to operate on.Fununderline-region
3341: Remove all underlining (overstruck underscores) in the region.
3342: Called from program, takes two arguments START and END
3343: which specify the range to operate on.Fask-user-about-lock
3344: Ask user what to do when he wants to edit FILE but it is locked by USER.
3345: This function has a choice of three things to do:
3346: do (signal 'buffer-file-locked (list FILE USER))
3347: to refrain from editing the file
3348: return t (grab the lock on the file)
3349: return nil (edit the file even though it is locked).
3350: You can rewrite it to use any criterion you like to choose which one to do.Fask-user-about-supersession-threat
3351: Ask a user who is about to modify an obsolete buffer what to do.
3352: This function has two choices: it can return, in which case the modification
3353: of the buffer will proceed, or it can (signal 'file-supersession (file)),
3354: in which case the proposed buffer modification will not be made.
3355: You can rewrite this to use any criterion you like to choose which one to do.Fvi-mode
3356: Major mode that acts like the `vi' editor.
3357: The purpose of this mode is to provide you the combined power of vi (namely,
3358: the "cross product" effect of commands and repeat last changes) and Emacs.
3359:
3360: This command redefines nearly all keys to look like vi commands.
3361: It records the previous major mode, and any vi command for input
3362: (`i', `a', `s', etc.) switches back to that mode.
3363: Thus, ordinary Emacs (in whatever major mode you had been using)
3364: is "input" mode as far as vi is concerned.
3365:
3366: To get back into vi from "input" mode, you must issue this command again.
3367: Therefore, it is recommended that you assign it to a key.
3368:
3369: Major differences between this mode and real vi :
3370:
3371: * Limitations and unsupported features
3372: - Search patterns with line offset (e.g. /pat/+3 or /pat/z.) are
3373: not supported.
3374: - Ex commands are not implemented; try ':' to get some hints.
3375: - No line undo (i.e. the 'U' command), but multi-undo is a standard feature.
3376:
3377: * Modifications
3378: - The stopping positions for some point motion commands (word boundary,
3379: pattern search) are slightly different from standard 'vi'.
3380: Also, no automatic wrap around at end of buffer for pattern searching.
3381: - Since changes are done in two steps (deletion then insertion), you need
3382: to undo twice to completely undo a change command. But this is not needed
3383: for undoing a repeated change command.
3384: - No need to set/unset 'magic', to search for a string with regular expr
3385: in it just put a prefix arg for the search commands. Replace cmds too.
3386: - ^R is bound to incremental backward search, so use ^L to redraw screen.
3387:
3388: * Extensions
3389: - Some standard (or modified) Emacs commands were integrated, such as
3390: incremental search, query replace, transpose objects, and keyboard macros.
3391: - In command state, ^X links to the 'ctl-x-map', and ESC can be linked to
3392: esc-map or set undefined. These can give you the full power of Emacs.
3393: - See vi-com-map for those keys that are extensions to standard vi, e.g.
3394: `vi-name-last-change-or-macro', `vi-verify-spelling', `vi-locate-def',
3395: `vi-mark-region', and 'vi-quote-words'. Some of them are quite handy.
3396: - Use \[vi-switch-mode] to switch among different modes quickly.
3397:
3398: Syntax table and abbrevs while in vi mode remain as they were in Emacs.Fview-file
3399: View FILE in View mode, returning to previous buffer when done.
3400: The usual Emacs commands are not available; instead,

3411: Space scrolls forward, Delete scrolls backward.
3412: For list of all View commands, type ? or h while viewing.
3413:
3414: Calls the value of view-hook if that is non-nil.Fview-mode
3415: Major mode for viewing text but not editing it.
3416: Letters do not insert themselves. Instead these commands are provided.
3417: Most commands take prefix arguments. Commands dealing with lines
3418: default to "scroll size" lines (initially size of window).
3419: Search commands default to a repeat count of one.
3420: M-< or < move to beginning of buffer.
3421: M-> or > move to end of buffer.
3422: C-v or Space scroll forward lines.
3423: M-v or DEL scroll backward lines.
3424: CR or LF scroll forward one line (backward with prefix argument).
3425: z like Space except set number of lines for further
3426: scrolling commands to scroll by.
3427: C-u and Digits provide prefix arguments. `-' denotes negative argument.
3428: = prints the current line number.
3429: g goes to line given by prefix argument.
3430: / or M-C-s searches forward for regular expression
3431: \ or M-C-r searches backward for regular expression.
3432: n searches forward for last regular expression.
3433: p searches backward for last regular expression.
3434: C-@ or . set the mark.
3435: x exchanges point and mark.
3436: C-s or s do forward incremental search.
3437: C-r or r do reverse incremental search.
3438: @ or ' return to mark and pops mark ring.
3439: Mark ring is pushed at start of every
3440: successful search and when jump to line to occurs.
3441: The mark is set on jump to buffer start or end.
3442: ? or h provide help message (list of commands).
3443: C-h provides help (list of commands or description of a command).
3444: C-n moves down lines vertically.
3445: C-p moves upward lines vertically.
3446: C-l recenters the screen.
3447: q or C-c exit view-mode and return to previous buffer.
3448:
3449: Entry to this mode calls the value of view-hook if non-nil.
3450: \{view-mode-map}Fvip-mode
3451: Begin emulating the vi editor. This is distinct from `vi-mode'.
3452: This emulator has different capabilities from the `vi-mode' emulator.
3453: See the text at the beginning of the source file .../lisp/vip.el
3454: in the Emacs distribution.Fyow
3455: Return or display a Zippy quotationFpsychoanalyze-pinhead
3456: Zippy goes to the analyst.Fisearch-forward
3457: Do incremental search forward.
3458: As you type characters, they add to the search string and are found.
3459: Type Delete to cancel characters from end of search string.
3460: Type ESC to exit, leaving point at location found.
3461: Type C-s to search again forward, C-r to search again backward.
3462: Type C-w to yank word from buffer onto end of search string and search for it.
3463: Type C-y to yank rest of line onto end of search string, etc.
3464: Type C-q to quote control character to search for it.
3465: Other control and meta characters terminate the search
3466: and are then executed normally.
3467: The above special characters are mostly controlled by parameters;
3468: do M-x apropos on search-.*-char to find them.
3469: C-g while searching or when search has failed
3470: cancels input back to what has been found successfully.
3471: C-g when search is successful aborts and moves point to starting point.Fisearch-forward-regexp
3472: Do incremental search forward for regular expression.
3473: Like ordinary incremental search except that your input
3474: is treated as a regexp. See \[isearch-forward] for more info.Fisearch-backward

3881: Takes file name as argument. Does not print anything.Fwrite-abbrev-file
3882: Write all abbrev definitions to file of Lisp code.
3883: The file can be loaded to define the same abbrevs.Fadd-mode-abbrev
3884: Define mode-specific abbrev for last word(s) before point.
3885: Argument is how many words before point form the expansion;
3886: or zero means the region is the expansion.
3887: A negative argument means to undefine the specified abbrev.
3888: Reads the abbreviation in the minibuffer.Fadd-global-abbrev
3889: Define global (all modes) abbrev for last word(s) before point.

3902: Mark current point as the beginning of an abbrev.
3903: Abbrev to be expanded starts here rather than at

3905: with a prefix: insert the prefix, use this command,
3906: then insert the abbrev.Fexpand-region-abbrevs
3907: For abbrev occurrence in the region, offer to expand it.
3908: The user is asked to type y or n for each occurrence.

3916: q -- select buffer of line point is on.
3917: Also show buffers marked with m in other windows.
3918: 1 -- select that buffer in full-screen window.

3920: together with buffer selected before this one in another window.
3921: f -- select that buffer in place of the buffer menu buffer.
3922: o -- select that buffer in another window,
3923: so the buffer menu buffer remains visible in its window.
3924: ~ -- clear modified-flag on that buffer.
3925: s -- mark that buffer to be saved, and move down.
3926: d or k -- mark that buffer to be deleted, and move down.

3928: x -- delete or save marked buffers.
3929: u -- remove all kinds of marks from current line.
3930: Delete -- back up a line and remove marks.

3960: Signal an error, making error message by passing all args to `format'.Fsuppress-keymap
3961: Make MAP override all buffer-modifying commands to be undefined.
3962: Works by knowing which commands are normally buffer-modifying.

3964: but optional second arg NODIGITS non-nil prevents this.Fsubstitute-key-definition
3965: Replace OLDDEF with NEWDEF for any keys in KEYMAP now defined as OLDDEF.
3966: In other words, OLDDEF is replaced with NEWDEF where ever it appears.Vglobal-map

3975: Takes hook names and runs each one in turn. Major mode functions use this.
3976: Each argument should be a symbol, a hook variable.
3977: These symbols are processed in the order specified.
3978: If a hook symbol has a non-nil value, that value may be a function
3979: or a list of functions to be called to run the hook.

3981: If it is a list, the elements are called, in order, with no arguments.Fmomentary-string-display
3982: Momentarily display STRING in the buffer at POS.
3983: Display remains until next character is typed.
