70 call these functions when input is available, they do nothing | |
71 immediately, but a full redisplay does happen eventually---after all the | |

75 Some terminal emulators record separate contents for display-oriented | |
76 programs such as Emacs and for ordinary sequential display. If you are | |

148 This buffer-local variable controls how Emacs displays lines that extend | |

150 specifies continuation. If the value is non-@code{nil}, then these | |
151 lines are truncated. | |

173 If your buffer contains @emph{very} long lines, and you use |
12067 | 174 continuation to display them, just thinking about them can make Emacs |
12098 | 175 redisplay slow. The column computation and indentation functions also |
176 become slow. Then you might find it advisable to set | |
177 @code{cache-long-line-scans} to @code{t}. | |
12067 | 178 |
179 @defvar cache-long-line-scans | |
180 If this variable is non-@code{nil}, various indentation and motion | |
12098 | 181 functions, and Emacs redisplay, cache the results of scanning the |
182 buffer, and consult the cache to avoid rescanning regions of the buffer | |
183 unless they are modified. | |
12067 | 184 |
12098 | 185 Turning on the cache slows down processing of short lines somewhat. |

724 to set @code{buffer-invisibility-spec} yourself. |
12067 | 725 |
726 More generally, you can use the variable @code{buffer-invisibility-spec} | |
727 to control which values of the @code{invisible} property make text | |
728 invisible. This permits you to classify the text into different subsets | |
729 in advance, by giving them different @code{invisible} values, and | |
730 subsequently make various subsets visible or invisible by changing the | |
731 value of @code{buffer-invisibility-spec}. | |
732 | |
733 Controlling visibility with @code{buffer-invisibility-spec} is | |
25875 | 734 especially useful in a program to display the list of entries in a |
735 database. It permits the implementation of convenient filtering | |
736 commands to view just a part of the entries in the database. Setting | |
737 this variable is very fast, much faster than scanning all the text in | |
738 the buffer looking for properties to change. | |

977 The string @var{buffer-name} specifies the temporary buffer, which | |

979 The buffer is erased initially (with no questions asked), and it is | |
980 marked as unmodified after @code{with-output-to-temp-buffer} exits. | |
981 | |
982 @code{with-output-to-temp-buffer} binds @code{standard-output} to the | |
983 temporary buffer, then it evaluates the forms in @var{forms}. Output | |
984 using the Lisp output functions within @var{forms} goes by default to | |
985 that buffer (but screen display and messages in the echo area, although | |
986 they are ``output'' in the general sense of the word, are not affected). | |

1036 This normal hook is run by @code{with-output-to-temp-buffer} after |

1038 is current, and the window it was displayed in is selected. This hook | |

1049 The momentary display remains until the next input event. If the next | |
1050 input event is @var{char}, @code{momentary-string-display} ignores it | |
1051 and returns. Otherwise, that event remains buffered for subsequent use | |
1052 as input. Thus, typing @var{char} will simply remove the string from | |
1053 the display, while typing (say) @kbd{C-f} will remove the string from | |
1054 the display and later (presumably) move point forward. The argument | |
1055 @var{char} is a space by default. | |

1104 You can use @dfn{overlays} to alter the appearance of a buffer's text on | |
12098 | 1105 the screen, for the sake of presentation features. An overlay is an |
1106 object that belongs to a particular buffer, and has a specified | |
1107 beginning and end. It also has properties that you can examine and set; | |
1108 these affect the display of the text within the overlay. | |
6598 | 1109 |
68084 | 1110 An overlay uses markers to record its beginning and end; thus, |
54023 | 1111 editing the text of the buffer adjusts the beginning and end of each |
1112 overlay so that it stays with the text. When you create the overlay, | |
1113 you can specify whether text inserted at the beginning should be | |
1114 inside the overlay or outside, and likewise for the end of the overlay. | |

2438 This function defines a face named @var{new-name} as a copy of the existing |
6598 | 2439 face named @var{old-face}. It creates the face @var{new-name} if that |
2440 doesn't already exist. | |

2442 If the optional argument @var{frame} is given, this function applies | |
2443 only to that frame. Otherwise it applies to each frame individually, | |
2444 copying attributes from @var{old-face} in each frame to @var{new-face} | |
2445 in the same frame. | |

2447 If the optional argument @var{new-frame} is given, then @code{copy-face} | |

3731 will influence the transformed pixel; element @math{0} specifies the | |

3878 The value, @var{data}, specifies the contents of the image. | |
3879 There are three formats you can use for @var{data}: | |
3880 | |
3881 @itemize @bullet | |
3882 @item | |
3883 A vector of strings or bool-vectors, each specifying one line of the | |

3885 | |
3886 @item | |
3887 A string containing the same byte sequence as an XBM file would contain. | |
3888 You must not specify @code{:height} and @code{:width} in this case, | |
3889 because omitting them is what indicates the data has the format of an | |
3890 XBM file. The file contents specify the height and width of the image. | |
3891 | |
3892 @item | |
3893 A string or a bool-vector containing the bits of the image (plus perhaps | |
3894 some extra bits at the end that will not be used). It should contain at | |
3895 least @var{width} * @code{height} bits. In this case, you must specify | |
3896 @code{:height} and @code{:width}, both to indicate that the string | |
3897 contains just the bits rather than a whole XBM file, and to specify the | |
3898 size of the image. | |

4964 @deffn Command blink-matching-open |
6598 | 4965 This function is the default value of @code{blink-paren-function}. It |
4966 assumes that point follows a character with close parenthesis syntax and | |
4967 moves the cursor momentarily to the matching opening character. If that | |
4968 character is not already on the screen, it displays the character's | |
4969 context in the echo area. To avoid long delays, this function does not | |
4970 search farther than @code{blink-matching-paren-distance} characters. | |

4993 @section Usual Display Conventions | |
4994 | |
4995 The usual display conventions define how to display each character | |
4996 code. You can override these conventions by setting up a display table | |
4997 (@pxref{Display Tables}). Here are the usual display conventions: | |
4998 | |
4999 @itemize @bullet | |
5000 @item | |
5001 Character codes 32 through 126 map to glyph codes 32 through 126. | |
5002 Normally this means they display as themselves. | |
5003 | |

5005 Character code 9 is a horizontal tab. It displays as whitespace | |
5006 up to a position determined by @code{tab-width}. | |
5007 | |
5008 @item | |
5009 Character code 10 is a newline. | |
5010 | |
5011 @item | |
5012 All other codes in the range 0 through 31, and code 127, display in one | |
9009 | 5013 of two ways according to the value of @code{ctl-arrow}. If it is |
6598 | 5014 non-@code{nil}, these codes map to sequences of two glyphs, where the |

5015 first glyph is the @acronym{ASCII} code for @samp{^}. (A display table can |
