diff lisp/hippie-exp.el @ 4130:e5aee6a3bb75

* hippie-exp.el: Renamed from hippie.el. Changes from Anders Holst, to bring hippie-expand up to version 1.2: * hippie-exp.el (hippie-expand-max-buffers): New variable. (try-expand-line-all-buffers, try-expand-list-all-buffers, try-expand-dabbrev-all-buffers): Use it. (try-expand-list, try-expand-list-all-buffers): New functions. (he-string-beg, he-string-end, he-search-loc): These values are now markers, not integers. Uses changed. (he-reset-string, he-substitute-string): Use a marker to preserve the old position of point. (try-expand-all-abbrevs): handle case the same way as the usual expand-abbrev (which is not a very good way, but for consistency...). (he-dabbrev-beg): Use `skip-syntax' instead of `skip-chars', to adjust its behavior to different modes. (hippie-expand): Don't messages which try function it is using, when the expansion itself is done in the minibuffer (it was very annoying to have the message obscuring the expansion). (try-complete-file-name, try-complete-file-name-partially, try-complete-lisp-symbol, try-complete-lisp-symbol-partially, try-expand-line, try-expand-line-all-buffers, try-expand-all-abbrevs, try-expand-dabbrev, try-expand-dabbrev-all-buffers): No unnecessary "resetting" of the epansion, when no expansion is done (caused the buffer to be marked as changed, although nothing was done, among other things). (he-reset-string): Undoing of last expansion at a later occasion, now undoes correctly (before, it garbled things up). (make-hippie-expand-function): now uses "(function ...)" instead of "'" (matters for compilation). (try-expand-line, try-expand-line-all-buffers, he-line-search-regexp): uses `comint-prompt-regexp' instead of `shell-prompt-pattern', to strip off prompt in process buffers.
