;;; Commentary:
|
|
|
|
;; Provides a global minor mode (toggled by M-x hl-line-mode) to
|
|
;; highlight, on a suitable terminal, the line in the current window
|
|
;; on which point is (except in a minibuffer window). Done to satisfy
|
|
;; a request for a feature of Lesser Editors.
|
|
|
|
;; You probably don't really want this; if the cursor is difficult to
|
|
;; spot, try changing its colour, relying on `blink-cursor-mode' or
|
|
;; both. The hookery used might affect response noticeably on a slow
|
|
;; machine.
|
|
|
|
;; An overlay is used, active only on the selected window. Hooks are
|
|
;; added to `pre-command-hook' and `post-command-hook' to activate and
|
|
;; deactivate (by deleting) the overlay. `hl-line-unhighlight', on
|
|
;; `pre-command-hook', deactivates it unconditionally in case the
|
|
;; command changes the selected window. (It does so rather than
|
|
;; keeping track of changes in the selected window).
|
|
;; `hl-line-highlight', on `post-command-hook', activates it again
|
|
;; across the window width.
|
|
|
|
;; You could make variable `hl-line-mode' buffer-local to avoid
|
|
;; highlighting specific buffers.
