26;;; Commentary:

EZ
28;; Provides a local minor mode (toggled by M-x hl-line-mode) and
29;; a global minor mode (toggled by M-x global-hl-line-mode) to
23db85ff
LK
30;; highlight, on a suitable terminal, the line on which point is. The
31;; global mode highlights the current line in the selected window only
32;; (except when the minibuffer window is selected). This was
33;; implemented to satisfy a request for a feature of Lesser Editors.
34;; The local mode is sticky: it highlights the line about the buffer's
35;; point even if the buffer's window is not selected. Caveat: the
36;; buffer's point might be different from the point of a non-selected
37;; window. Set the variable `hl-line-sticky-flag' to nil to make the
38;; local mode behave like the global mode.
39
40;; You probably don't really want to use the global mode; if the
6772c8e1 41;; cursor is difficult to spot, try changing its color, relying on
23db85ff
LK
42;; `blink-cursor-mode' or both. The hookery used might affect
43;; response noticeably on a slow machine. The local mode may be
44;; useful in non-editing buffers such as Gnus or PCL-CVS though.
45
46;; An overlay is used. In the non-sticky cases, this overlay is
47;; active only on the selected window. A hook is added to
48;; `post-command-hook' to activate the overlay and move it to the line
49;; about point. To get the non-sticky behavior, `hl-line-unhighlight'
50;; is added to `pre-command-hook' as well. This function deactivates
51;; the overlay unconditionally in case the command changes the
52;; selected window. (It does so rather than keeping track of changes
53;; in the selected window).

LK
55;; You could make variable `global-hl-line-mode' buffer-local and set
56;; it to nil to avoid highlighting specific buffers, when the global
57;; mode is used.
58
a4c6ebf9 59;; By default the whole line is highlighted. The range of highlighting
bf247b6e 60;; can be changed by defining an appropriate function as the
9fd76d04
MY
61;; buffer-local value of `hl-line-range-function'.
