;;; Commentary:

;; * Commands provided
;;
;; This file provides Hideshow Minor Mode.  When active, nine commands
;; are available, implementing block hiding and showing.  They (and their
;; keybindings) are:
;;
;;   hs-hide-block                      C-c @ C-h
;;   hs-show-block                      C-c @ C-s
;;   hs-hide-all                        C-c @ C-M-h
;;   hs-show-all                        C-c @ C-M-s
;;   hs-hide-level                      C-c @ C-l
;;   hs-toggle-hiding                   C-c @ C-c
;;   hs-mouse-toggle-hiding             [(shift mouse-2)]
;;   hs-hide-initial-comment-block
;;
;; Blocks are defined per mode.  In c-mode, c++-mode and java-mode, they
;; are simply text between curly braces, while in Lisp-ish modes parens
;; are used.  Multi-line comment blocks can also be hidden.  Read-only
;; buffers are not a problem, since hideshow doesn't modify the text.
;;
;; The command `M-x hs-minor-mode' toggles the minor mode or sets it
;; (similar to other minor modes).

;; * Suggested usage
;;
;; First make sure hideshow.el is in a directory in your `load-path'.
;; You can optionally byte-compile it using `M-x byte-compile-file'.
;; Then, add the following to your ~/.emacs:
;;
;; (load-library "hideshow")
;; (add-hook 'X-mode-hook               ; other modes similarly
;;           '(lambda () (hs-minor-mode 1)))
;;
;; where X = {emacs-lisp,c,c++,perl,...}.  You can also manually toggle
;; hideshow minor mode by typing `M-x hs-minor-mode'.  After hideshow is
;; activated or deactivated, `hs-minor-mode-hook' is run w/ `run-hooks'.
;;
;; Additionally, Joseph Eydelnant writes:
;;   I enjoy your package hideshow.el Ver. 5.24 2001/02/13
;;   a lot and I've been looking for the following functionality:
;;   toggle hide/show all with a single key.
;;   Here are a few lines of code that lets me do just that.
;;
;;   (defvar my-hs-hide nil "Current state of hideshow for toggling all.")
;;   ;;;###autoload
;;   (defun my-toggle-hideshow-all () "Toggle hideshow all."
;;     (interactive)
;;     (setq my-hs-hide (not my-hs-hide))
;;     (if my-hs-hide
;;         (hs-hide-all)
;;       (hs-show-all)))
;;
;; [Your hideshow hacks here!]

;; * Customization
;;
;; You can use `M-x customize-variable' on the following variables:
;;
;; - hs-hide-comments-when-hiding-all -- self-explanatory!
;; - hs-hide-all-non-comment-function -- if non-nil, when doing a
;;                                       `hs-hide-all', this function
;;                                       is called w/ no arguments
;; - hs-isearch-open                  -- what kind of hidden blocks to
;;                                       open when doing isearch
;;
;; Some languages (e.g., Java) are deeply nested, so the normal behavior
;; of `hs-hide-all' (hiding all but top-level blocks) results in very
;; little information shown, which is not very useful.  You can use the
;; variable `hs-hide-all-non-comment-function' to implement your idea of
;; what is more useful.  For example, the following code shows the next
;; nested level in addition to the top-level:
;;
;;   (defun ttn-hs-hide-level-1 ()
;;     (hs-hide-level 1)
;;     (forward-sexp 1))
;;   (setq hs-hide-all-non-comment-function 'ttn-hs-hide-level-1)
;;
;; Hideshow works w/ incremental search (isearch) by setting the variable
;; `hs-headline', which is the line of text at the beginning of a hidden
;; block that contains a match for the search.  You can have this show up
;; in the mode line by modifying the variable `mode-line-format'.  For
;; example, the following code prepends this info to the mode line:
;;
;;   (unless (memq 'hs-headline mode-line-format)
;;     (setq mode-line-format
;;           (append '("-" hs-headline) mode-line-format)))
;;
;; See documentation for `mode-line-format' for more info.
;;
;; Hooks are run after some commands:
;;
;;   hs-hide-hook     in      hs-hide-block, hs-hide-all, hs-hide-level
;;   hs-show-hook             hs-show-block, hs-show-all
;;
;; One of `hs-hide-hook' or `hs-show-hook' is run for the toggling
;; commands when the result of the toggle is to hide or show blocks,
;; respectively.  All hooks are run w/ `run-hooks'.  See docs for each
;; variable or hook for more info.
;;
;; Normally, hideshow tries to determine appropriate values for block
;; and comment definitions by examining the buffer's major mode.  If
;; there are problems, hideshow will not activate and in that case you
;; may wish to override hideshow's heuristics by adding an entry to
;; variable `hs-special-modes-alist'.  Packages that use hideshow should
;; do something like:
;;
;;   (let ((my-mode-hs-info '(my-mode "{{" "}}" ...)))
;;     (if (not (member my-mode-hs-info hs-special-modes-alist))
;;         (setq hs-special-modes-alist
;;               (cons my-mode-hs-info hs-special-modes-alist))))
;;
;; If you have an entry that works particularly well, consider
;; submitting it for inclusion in hideshow.el.  See docstring for
;; `hs-special-modes-alist' for more info on the entry format.

;; * Bugs
;;
;; (1) Hideshow does not work w/ emacs 18 because emacs 18 lacks the
;;     function `forward-comment' (among other things).  If someone
;;     writes this, please send me a copy.
;;
;; (2) Sometimes `hs-headline' can become out of sync.  To reset, type
;;     `M-x hs-minor-mode' twice (that is, deactivate then re-activate
;;     hideshow).
;;
;; (3) Hideshow 5.x is developed and tested on GNU Emacs 20.7.
;;     XEmacs compatibility may have bitrotted since 4.29.
;;
;; (4) Some buffers can't be `byte-compile-file'd properly.  This is because
;;     `byte-compile-file' inserts the file to be compiled in a temporary
;;     buffer and switches `normal-mode' on.  In the case where you have
;;     `hs-hide-initial-comment-block' in `hs-minor-mode-hook', the hiding of
;;     the initial comment sometimes hides parts of the first statement (seems
;;     to be only in `normal-mode'), so there are unbalanced "(" and ")".
;;
;;     The workaround is to clear `hs-minor-mode-hook' when byte-compiling:
;;
;;     (defadvice byte-compile-file (around
;;                                   byte-compile-file-hideshow-off
;;                                   act)
;;       (let ((hs-minor-mode-hook nil))
;;         ad-do-it))
;;
;; (5) Hideshow interacts badly with Ediff and `vc-diff'.  At the moment, the
;;     suggested workaround is to turn off hideshow entirely, for example:
;;
;;     (defun turn-off-hideshow () (hs-minor-mode -1))
;;     (add-hook 'ediff-prepare-buffer-hook 'turn-off-hideshow)
;;     (add-hook 'vc-before-checkin-hook 'turn-off-hideshow)
;;
;;     In the case of `vc-diff', here is a less invasive workaround:
;;
;;     (add-hook 'vc-before-checkin-hook
;;               '(lambda ()
;;                  (goto-char (point-min))
;;                  (hs-show-block)))
;;
;;     Unfortunately, these workarounds do not restore hideshow state.
;;     If someone figures out a better way, please let me know.
