# -*- mode: org -*- * v0.3.6 2021-07-01 - Added new option ~transient-force-single-column~, which may be useful for low vision. #122 - Added new option ~transient-highlight-higher-levels~, which is intended for package authors. 90a05622 * v0.3.5 2021-06-16 - Added a kludge to work around some unexpected Emacs behavior. ef921d30 - When showing help for a suffix that is also a subprefix, then also consider the manpage that is set for the prefix, if any. a9bdd013 * v0.3.4 2021-05-25 - Very minor changes. * v0.3.3 2021-05-24 - Added SPDX-License-Identifier library header. 7d3d8d79 * v0.3.2 2021-04-20 - Fixed an error message. c145229a * v0.3.1 2021-04-19 - Changed ~transient-prefix~'s ~suffix-description~ slot to be initially unbound, as was always intended. c28b8a4 - Added new functions ~transient-read-file~ and ~transient-read-existing-file~. a3b44224 * v0.3.0 2021-02-21 - Added a temporary kludge to prevent a transient from being invoked while the minibuffer is active. A future release will enable this again, once we are sure that cannot cause Emacs to enter an inconsistent state, that causes most events to be ignored. #112 - Improved the backtrace that is shown when a fatal error occured in a critical context. This involved some back and forth. See commits mentioning the "emergency exit". - Added support for defining a per-prefix fallback suffix description function, which is used for suffixes that do not explicitly provide a description. The new ~suffix-description~ slot is used to specify that function. The new ~transient-command-summary-or-name~ function is useful, not just as an example. 8b22b52b - Added ~transient-arg-value~, which can be used to extract the values of individual arguments in the output of ~transient-args~. d76f73f8 - Added support for using variables in group and suffix definitions of a prefix. Such indirect specifications are resolved when the transient prefix is being defined. #101 - No longer bind ~M-~ to any common suffix commands; freeing this namespace for a variety of uses in individual transient. A few existing bindings had to be changed because of this. 990eb0a2 - Added ~transient-suffixes~ function, which is useful when ~transient-args~ is not sufficient because one needs the suffix objects, not just their values. #98 - Added ~init-value~ slot for infix and prefix objects. If this value bound then it is called with the object as only argument instead of the primary ~transient-init-value~ method of the object class. #96, 3284f6a0 - Added ~unsavable~ slot for infix objects. If this is non-nil, then the value of the infix is removed from the prefix value before saving, setting and adding to history. #96 - Added support for right padding the keys of all suffixes in a group. This is controlled using the new ~pad-keys~ slot of group objects. 7502390b, 293a437d - Added support for delaying setup of the suffixes of a prefix until that is invoked. Also added support for using unnamed functions as suffix commands. Taken together these changes make it possible to dynamically create the list of suffixed. See the ~notmuch-transient~ package for two examples: ~notmuch-search-transient~ and ~notmuch-tag-transient~. f2252d53, a3e53633 - Added the infix class ~transient-lisp-variable~. 2d8ceff4 - Added ~transient-infix-read~, which allows arbitrary commands to read a value the same way as would the infix command that is provided as an argument to this function. 73694be4 - Added support for coloring suffixes in a Hydra-like fashion. To enable this, customize option ~transient-semantic-coloring~. 248862c5 - Added support for disabling and dimming suffix commands that are currently not suitable, instead of completely hidding them. #80 - Autoload functions that serve a purpose similar to that of ~define-key~. #85 - Consistently use ~transient-~ as the prefix of all symbols. The old names remain available as obsolete aliases. dd0c44cb - Added support for scrolling the transient popup buffer using the scroll bar. #84 - Various bug fixes. 48238bf5 Allow invoking arbitrary prefixes as non-suffixes d85eb790 transient-read-directory: Pass read value through file-local-name f086cb62 transient--insert-suffix: Allow same key with different predicates d555d260 transient-format-description(lisp-variable): Return string 0d79ccfa transient--parse-suffix: Don't fallback to read-string for options f88dbc43 transient-suffix-object: Support all suffixes b343e2a3 transient-infix-read: Fix ivy specific kludge 55bad195 transient--pp-to-file: Bugfix c1df3b21 Ensure we use symbols in a few more places 769fa438 transient-set-level: Fix edge-case 88d935c7 transient-display-buffer-action: inhibit-same-window by default * v0.2.0 2020-02-26 - ~transient-args~ must now be called with a transient prefix command as argument. It is now the only argument and its value must be a symbol now, an object is no longer supported. When this command does not match ~current-transient-command~, then this function now returns the set, saved or default value. 0312b93, 7d0db28, d33fe5a, a6ce195 - No longer use the last history element as initial minibuffer input by default. Added new option ~transient-read-with-initial-input~ to allow users to restore the old default. dcf7a4d, 5decc6e - The set and saved values were not always used. #68 - Added support for inserting and removing groups. #36 - Added support for specifying where to insert elements and groups using coordinates. #26 - Added support for moving the cursor inside the transient popup buffer using the arrow keys or Isearch, and for invoke suffix commands using RET or mouse clicks. Unlike Magit-Popup, Transient doesn't make the transient popup buffer the current buffer. This is important when invoking suffix commands that take the current position into account, but it has the drawback that we do not get these features for free. Because I also consider them unnecessary I did not implement them initially. Turns out quite a few users strongly disagree. Set ~transient-enable-popup-navigation~ to ~t~ to enable these features. #42 - Explicitly support Edebug. Previously when Edebug was triggered while a transient was active, then Emacs entered an unrecoverable state. #19 - No longer attempt to display a thin line in termcap frames. 0a96a57 - Work around some Ivy bugs/incompatibilities. af243d5, fed7ab1 - The new option ~transient-force-fixed-pitch~ allows users to use a monospaced font in transient's popup buffer even if they use a proportional font for the rest of Emacs. #25, #67 - Adapted to backward incompatible changes in Emacs 27 that prevented faces from extending to the edge of the window as expected. c1ae1ee - No longer depend on dash (or any other third-party package). #66 - When a transient has conflicting key bindings and Transient is configure to warn about that, then Emacs entered an unrecoverable state instead. 75de1f0 - ~transient-format-value~ now supports options with multiple values. #65 - Removing a suffix based on its position was broken. 41cbf49 - In our popup buffers disable the tab feature that Emacs 27 introduces. #62 - Inserting a new suffix next to another ended up replacing the latter instead if its key binding was defined in the suffix object. #58 - ~transient-undefined~ learned to make some noise. #57 - Fix replacing a suffix with another suffix bound to the same key. 5a360bb, 4ce1868 - Characters are no longer allowed as pseudo suffixes. To insert a an empty cell into a table use the empty string instead. 71687ba - Added new variable ~transient--buffer-name~. #45 - Some misconfiguration that affects how the transient popup buffer is displayed could lead to Emacs entering an unrecoverable state. #34, #44 - The echo area is now cleared when the transient popup buffer is shown. afdf1f0 - If ~transient-show-popup~ is 0 or a negative number, then not even a one-line summary is shown initially. #41 - Added new function ~transient-read-directory~. a87cb2c - ~define-transient-command~ now supports specifying the level of a suffix using the ~:level~ keyword argument. 6506cfd - The mode-related suffix predicates now also support a list of modes as argument in addition to a single mode as before. 1c6afb8 - The new ~incompatible~ slot of prefix objects makes it possible to specify which arguments should be autoatically disabled when the user enables certain other arguments. 544b3bb - ~transient--history-push~ is now defined as generic function. 47b7975 - The a new ~history-key~ slot and ~transient--history-key~ generic function for prefix objects. 3668aeb, e627d45 - Disallow setting the level of essential suffixes that are shared between all transients. #29 - The active infix is now highlight while reading its value from the user. #30 - The commands ~transient-set~ and ~transient-save~ can now be configured to exit the transient, though by default they still don't. a47ae94 - Always respect the ~transient~ slot of a suffix, even if that suffix has a binding in ~transient-predicate-map~. 919fc66 - Added new generic functions ~transient-set-value~ and ~transient-save-value~ intended for prefix commands. ebe9d9d - It is no longer possible to set a prefix level to 0, which is an invalid value. #28 - All transient prefix and suffix commands are now automatically declared to be for interactive use only. a6295fa - Infix arguments are no longer added to ~command-history~ because these entries were both useless and extremely noisy. #23 - ~digit-argument~ no longer exits the transient. 5f0ec7d - A new keymap, ~transient-base-map~ was added to make it easier to change key bindings that are shared between all transients. This new keymap is used as the parent of all the other keymaps that are shared between all transients. - Added new commands ~transient-scroll-up~ and ~transient-scroll-down~, which scroll the transient window. ~C-v~ and ~M-v~ (and ~~ and ~~) are bound to these commands. These keys were chosen they are bound to scrolling commands in the global map too. This made it necessary to find a new binding for ~transient-show~, which ~C-t~ is bound to now. #17 - The new option ~transient-mode-line-format~ allows users to use a mode-line for the transient popup buffer instead of just a thin line that separates it from the echo area. When using a non-standard value for ~transient-display-buffer-action~ it may be necessary to do that. #17 - The new option ~transient-display-buffer-action~ allows users to specify how a window is selected to display the transient popup buffer. The ~lv~ library is no longer used. #17 - The window that was selected before the transient window was shown is no longer re-selected before calling a suffix that exits the transient. If a suffix changes the selected window unintentionally, then that is a bug. This makes it possible to intentionally change the window layout using transients. - An infix is a special kind of suffix. Depending on context "suffixes" means "suffixes (including infixes)" or "non-infix suffixes". This is now mention in a few places where users might otherwise get confused. - Stopped claiming that the transient is shown in the "echo area", because technically that is not correct. Instead talk about the "popup buffer". - Fixed handling of suffix commands that are undefined at the time the prefix is invoked. This is still an error, but the error message now explains what is wrong. a729bbb - Fixed saving values/history/levels, making sure that the printed expression is never abbreviated. #15 - Fixed jumping to the correct place in a manpage when showing the documentation for an infix argument. c4bf4af - Bound ~ESC ESC ESC~ to ~transient-quit-all~ because the convention is that it should be possible to exit any temporary state using this binding. #12 - Fixed referencing suffix bindings by their key when the key binding is defined in the suffix object instead of in the suffix spec. e4ffb97 - Remove trailing whitespace from popup text for the benefit of users who have set enabled ~show-trailing-whitespace~ globally. 0758efa - Fixed showing available bindings on a single line instead of using the usual popup buffer. 2f011c9, 99d3bf6 - Added a line between the ~lv~ window and the echo area. ca18bb6 - Fixed adding a new suffix at the end of a group and removing a group's last suffix. #20, #6 - No longer use ~cl-typep~, which appears to have a bug on Emacs 25. 9183fe1 - Fixed ~lisp~ make target. 170a3fd - Fixed reading a number as the value of an infix. 8219c0b - Various bug fixes to ~transient--goto-argument-description~ (4f80a89), ~transient-show-help~ (ccac95e), ~transient-infix-read~ (7bf9759). * v0.1.0 2019-01-14 - First release.
