2010-04-04 John Wiegley <[e-mail]> * ido.el (ido-use-virtual-buffers): New variable to indicate whether "virtual buffer" support is enabled for IDO. Essentially it works as follows: Say you are visiting a file and the buffer gets cleaned up by mignight.el. Later, you want to switch to that buffer, but find it's no longer open. With virtual buffers enabled, the buffer name stays in the buffer list (using the ido-virtual face, and always at the end), and if you select it, it opens the file back up again. This allows you to think less about whether recently opened files are still open or not. Most of the time you can quit Emacs, restart, and then switch to a file buffer that was previously open as if it still were. NOTE: This feature has been present in iswitchb for several years now, and I'm porting the same logic to IDO. (ido-virtual): Face used to indicate virtual buffers in the list. (ido-buffer-internal): If a buffer is chosen, and no such buffer exists, but a virtual buffer of that name does (which would be why it was in the list), recreate the buffer by reopening the file. (ido-make-buffer-list): If virtual buffers are being used, call `ido-add-virtual-buffers-to-list' before the make list hook. (ido-virtual-buffers): New variable which contains a copy of the current contents of the `recentf-list', albeit pared down for the sake of speed, and with proper faces applied. (ido-add-virtual-buffers-to-list): Using the `recentf-list', create a list of "virtual buffers" to present to the user in addition to the currently open set. Note that this logic could get rather slow if that list is too large. With the default `recentf-max-saved-items' of 200, there is little speed penalty.

;;; Commentary:

;;  The functions contained in this file send various VT control codes
;;  to the terminal where emacs is running.  The following functions are
;;  available.

;;    Function           Action

;;    vt-wide            set wide screen (132 characters)
;;    vt-narrow          set narrow screen (80 characters)
;;    vt-toggle-screen   toggle wide/narrow screen
;;    vt-keypad-on       set applications keypad on
;;    vt-keypad-off      set applications keypad off
;;    vt-numlock         toggle applications keypad on/off

;;; Usage:

;;  To use enable these functions, simply load this file.

;;  Note: vt-control makes no effort to determine how the terminal is
;;        initially set.  It assumes the terminal starts with a width
;;        of 80 characters and the applications keypad enabled.  Nor
;;        does vt-control try to restore the terminal when emacs is
;;        killed or suspended.

;;; Code:


;;;  Global variables

(defvar vt-applications-keypad-p t
  "If non-nil, keypad is in applications mode.")

(defvar vt-wide-p nil

  (interactive)
  (send-string-to-terminal "\e[?3l")
  (set-frame-width (selected-frame) 80)
  (setq vt-wide-p nil))

(defun vt-toggle-screen nil
  "Toggle between 80 and 132 character screen width."
  (interactive)
  (if vt-wide-p (vt-narrow) (vt-wide)))


;;;  Applications keypad functions.

(defun vt-keypad-on (&optional tell)
  "Turn on the VT applications keypad."
