Could you guys please first explain the
;; This part is buggy (sorry)
comment in the patch?
Err... this just reflects my current lack of expressiveness in elisp... don't make me blush :-/
The patch looks good. It does not add any hooks though, it
moves some of the font-lock functionality into special functions
that will then be overwritten by the org-icons package.
Actually I tried to mimic the already existing code, e.g. org-font-lock-add-priority-faces.
A bit of
a brute force approach, but it may actually be the right thing
for this purpose.
I'm unsure it's the best approach either. I'm wondering that all these (while (re-search-forward)) could slow things down.
I'm
not sure I fully understand the font-locking code, but it seems like it
performs several -- possibly many -- regexp searches on one part of the
buffer, alternatively adding or removing text properties, right ?
I'm just wondering, could this be rewritten as one or several state
machines, that would trigger text properties addition/removal only once
for a given part of the buffer ?
I think I can easily apply the patch - I even like the fact that
it cleans up the font locking a bit and moves stuff into functions.
But if this patch is preliminary, keep working on it and give me
a more complete version when done.
Well, thanks for your support !
By
the way, you didn't give your opinion on using icons yourself. Please
confess us, are you a text-only addicted kind of guy, or a flashy,
glossy icons amateur...?
