 ;;; Commentary:
 
-;; Major mode for editing ANTLR grammar files, i.e., files ending with `.g'.
-;; ANTLR is ANother Tool for Language Recognition (an excellent alternative to
-;; lex/yacc), see <http://www.ANTLR.org> and <news:comp.compilers.tools.pccts>.
+;; This Emacs extension (major mode) provides various features for editing
+;; ANTLR grammar files.  ANTLR is a tool for LL(k)-based language recognition
+;; and an excellent alternative to lex & yacc, see <http://www.ANTLR.org>.
+;; Some features depend on the value of ANTLR's "language" option (check the
+;; modeline for "Antlr.Java" or "Antlr.C++").
 
 ;; This package provides the following features:
-;;  * Syntax coloring (via font-lock) for grammar symbols and the code in
-;;    actions.  The latter depends on the language settings.
-;;  * Indentation for the current line (TAB) and selected region (C-M-\).
-;;  * Support for imenu/speedbar: menu "Index" (Parser, Lexer, TreeParser).
+;;  * Syntax highlighting for grammar symbols and the code in actions.
+;;  * Indentation (pretty-print) for the current line (TAB) and lines in the
+;;    selected region (C-M-\).  Inserting an ANTLR syntax symbol (one of
+;;    ":;|&(){}") might also indent the current line.
+;;  * Menu "Index" and Speedbar tags with all class, token and rule
+;;    definitions.  Jump to corresponding position by selecting an entry.
 ;;  * Commands to move to previous/next rule, beginning/end of rule body etc.
-;;  * Commands to hide/unhide actions, upcase/downcase literals.
+;;  * Commands to hide/unhide actions.
+;;  * Support to insert/change file/grammar/rule/subrule options.
 ;;  * Run ANTLR from within Emacs, create Makefile dependencies.
 
-;; LANGUAGE SETTINGS.  This mode needs to know which language is used in
-;; actions and semantic predicated of the grammar.  This information is used
-;; for syntax coloring and the creation of the Makefile dependencies.  It is
-;; stored in variable `antlr-language' and automatically set according to
-;; ANTLR's file option "language", see `antlr-language-alist'.  The supported
-;; languages are "Java" (java-mode) and "Cpp" (c++-mode).
+;; SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING comes in three phases.  First, comments and strings are
+;; highlighted.  Second, the grammar code is highlighted according to
+;; `antlr-font-lock-additional-keywords' (rule refs: dark blue, token refs:
+;; dark orange, definition: bold blue).  Third, actions, semantic predicates
+;; and arguments are highlighted according to the usual font-lock keywords of
+;; the major-mode corresponding to ANTLR's "language" option, see also
+;; `antlr-font-lock-maximum-decoration'.  We define special font-lock faces for
+;; the grammar code to allow you to distinguish ANTLR keywords from Java/C++
+;; keywords.
 
 ;; INDENTATION.  This package supports ANTLR's (intended) indentation style
 ;; which is based on a simple paren/brace/bracket depth-level calculation, see
 ;; `antlr-indent-line'.  The indentation engine of cc-mode is only used inside
-;; block comments (it is not easy to use it for actions, esp if they come early
-;; in the rule body).  By default, this package defines a tab width of 4 to be
+;; block comments.  By default, this package defines a tab width of 4 to be
 ;; consistent to both ANTLR's conventions (TABs usage) and the
 ;; `c-indentation-style' "java" which sets `c-basic-offset' to 4, see
 ;; `antlr-tab-offset-alist'.  You might want to set this variable to nil.
 
-;; SYNTAX COLORING comes in three phases.  First, comments and strings are
-;; highlighted.  Second, the grammar code is highlighted according to
-;; `antlr-font-lock-additional-keywords' (rule refs: dark blue, token refs:
-;; dark orange, definition: bold blue).  Third, actions, semantic predicates
-;; and arguments are highlighted according to the usual font-lock keywords of
-;; `antlr-language', see also `antlr-font-lock-maximum-decoration'.  We define
-;; special font-lock faces for the grammar code to allow you to distinguish
-;; ANTLR keywords from Java/C++ keywords.
+;; OPTION SUPPORT.  This package provides special support to insert or change
+;; file, grammar, rule and subrule options via the menu or via the keyboard
+;; with completion.  For most options, you can also insert the value with
+;; completion (or select a value from a list by pressing `?').  You get a
+;; warning if an option is not supported by the version of ANTLR you are using
+;; (`antlr-tool-version' defaults to 2.7.1), or if the option shouldn't be
+;; inserted for other reasons.  This package knows the correct position where
+;; to insert the option and inserts "options {...}" if it is not already
+;; present.  For details, see the docstring of command \\[antlr-insert-option].
 
 ;; MAKEFILE CREATION.  Command \\[antlr-show-makefile-rules] shows/inserts the
 ;; dependencies for all grammar files in the current directory.  It considers
-;; import/export vocabularies and grammar inheritance and provides a value for
-;; the -glib option if necessary (which you have to edit if the super-grammar
-;; is not in the same directory).
+;; ANTLR's "language" option, import/export vocabularies and grammar
+;; inheritance, and provides a value for the -glib option if necessary (which
+;; you have to edit if the super-grammar is not in the same directory).
+
+;; TODO/WISH-LIST.  Things which might be supported in future versions:
 
-;; TODO.  Support to insert/change file/grammar/rule/subrule options.  imenu
-;; support for method definitions in actions is not really planned (you can
-;; send be a patch, though).  This mode would become too dependent on cc-mode
-;; or I would have to do a lot of language-dependent things myself...
+;;  * Next Version [C-c C-w].  Produce HTML document with syntax highlighted
+;;    and hyper-links (using htmlize).
+;;  * Next Version [C-c C-u].  Insert/update special comments: each rule lists
+;;    all rules which use the current rule.  With font-lock update.
+;;  * Next Version.  Make hiding much more customizable.
+;;  * Planned [C-c C-j].  Jump to generated coding.
+;;  * Planned.  Further support for imenu, i.e., include entries for method
+;;    definitions at beginning of grammar class.
+;;  * Planned [C-c C-p].  Pack/unpack rule/subrule & options (one/multi-line).
+
+;;  * Probably.  Show rules/dependencies for ANT like for Makefile (does ANT
+;;    support vocabularies and grammar inheritance?), I have to look at
+;;    jde-ant.el: http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/manual/OptionalTasks/antlr.html
+;;  * Unlikely.  Sather as generated language with syntax highlighting etc/.
+;;    Questions/problems: is sather-mode.el the standard mode for sather, is it
+;;    still supported, what is its relationship to eiffel3.el?  Requirement:
+;;    this mode must not depend on a Sather mode.
+;;  * Unlikely.  Faster syntax highlighting: sectionize the buffer into Antlr
+;;    and action code and run special highlighting functions on these regions.
+;;    Problems: code size, this mode would depend on font-lock internals.
 
 ;; Bug fixes, bug reports, improvements, and suggestions are strongly
 ;; appreciated.  Please check the newest version first:

+The value looks like \(FILE GRAMMAR RULE SUBRULE) where each FILE,
+GRAMMAR, RULE, and SUBRULE is a list of option definitions of the
+corresponding kind, i.e., looks like \(OPTION-DEF...).
+
+Each OPTION-DEF looks like \(OPTION-NAME EXTRA-FN VALUE-SPEC...) which
+defines a file/grammar/rule/subrule option with name OPTION-NAME.  The
+OPTION-NAMEs are used for the creation of the \"Insert XXX Option\"
+submenus, see `antlr-options-use-submenus', and to allow to insert the
+option name with completion when using \\[antlr-insert-option].
+
+If EXTRA-FN is a function, it is called at different phases of the
+insertion with arguments \(PHASE OPTION-NAME).  PHASE can have the
+values `before-input' or `after-insertion', additional phases might be
+defined in future versions of this mode.  The phase `before-input'
+occurs before the user is asked to insert a value.  The phase
+`after-insertion' occurs after the option value has been inserted.
+EXTRA-FN might be called with additional arguments in future versions of
+this mode.
+
+Each specification VALUE-SPEC looks like \(VERSION READ-FN ARG...).  The
+last VALUE-SPEC in an OPTION-DEF whose VERSION is smaller or equal to
+`antlr-tool-version' specifies how the user is asked for the value of
+the option.
+
+If READ-FN is nil, the only ARG is a string which is printed at the echo
+area to guide the user what to insert at point.  Otherwise, READ-FN is
+called with arguments \(INIT-VALUE ARG...) to get the new value of the
+option.  INIT-VALUE is the old value of the option or nil.
+
+The standard value contains the following functions as READ-FN:
+`antlr-read-value' with ARGs = \(PROMPT AS-STRING TABLE) which reads a
+general value, or `antlr-read-boolean' with ARGs = \(PROMPT TABLE) which
+reads a boolean value or a member of TABLE.  PROMPT is the prompt when
+asking for a new value.  If non-nil, TABLE is a table for completion or
+a function evaluating to such a table.  The return value is quoted iff
+AS-STRING is non-nil and is either t or a symbol which is a member of
+`antlr-options-style'.")

+;;;===========================================================================

+(defun antlr-insert-option (level option &optional location)
+  "Insert file/grammar/rule/subrule option near point.
+LEVEL determines option kind to insert: 1=file, 2=grammar, 3=rule,
+4=subrule.  OPTION is a string with the name of the option to insert.
+LOCATION can be specified for not calling `antlr-option-kind' twice.
+
+Inserting an option with this command works as follows:
+
+ 1. When called interactively, LEVEL is determined by the prefix
+    argument or automatically deduced without prefix argument.
+ 2. Signal an error if no option of that level could be inserted, e.g.,
+    if the buffer is read-only, the option area is outside the visible
+    part of the buffer or a subrule/rule option should be inserted with
+    point outside a subrule/rule.
+ 3. When called interactively, OPTION is read from the minibuffer with
+    completion over the known options of the given LEVEL.
+ 4. Ask user for confirmation if the given OPTION does not seem to be a
+    valid option to insert into the current file.
+ 5. Find a correct position to insert the option.
+ 6. Depending on the option, insert it the following way \(inserting an
+    option also means inserting the option section if necessary\):
+     - Insert the option and let user insert the value at point.
+     - Read a value (with completion) from the minibuffer, using a
+       previous value as initial contents, and insert option with value.
+ 7. Final action depending on the option.  For example, set the language
+    according to a newly inserted language option.
+
+The name of all options with a specification for their values are stored
+in `antlr-options-alist'.  The used specification also depends on the
+value of `antlr-tool-version', i.e., step 4 will warn you if you use an
+option that has been introduced in newer version of ANTLR, and step 5
+will offer completion using version-correct values.
+
+If the option already exists inside the visible part of the buffer, this
+command can be used to change the value of that option.  Otherwise, find
+a correct position where the option can be inserted near point.
+
+The search for a correct position is as follows:
+
+  * If search is within an area where options can be inserted, use the
+    position of point.  Inside the options section and if point is in
+    the middle of a option definition, skip the rest of it.
+  * If an options section already exists, insert the options at the end.
+    If only the beginning of the area is visible, insert at the
+    beginning.
+  * Otherwise, find the position where an options section can be
+    inserted and insert a new section before any comments.  If the
+    position before the comments is not visible, insert the new section
+    after the comments.
+
+This function also inserts \"options {...}\" and the \":\" if necessary,
+see `antlr-options-auto-colon'.  See also `antlr-options-assign-string'.
+
+This command might also set the mark like \\[set-mark-command] does, see
+`antlr-options-push-mark'."
