Supports ;; full Latin1 Haskell 1.4 as well as literate scripts. ;; ;; ;; Installation: ;; ;; To turn declaration scanning on for all Haskell buffers under the ;; Haskell mode of Moss&Thorn, add this to .emacs: ;; ;; (add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'turn-on-haskell-decl-scan) ;; ;; Otherwise, call `turn-on-haskell-decl-scan'. ;; ;; ;; Customisation: ;; ;; None available so far. ;; ;; ;; History: ;; ;; If you have any problems or suggestions, after consulting the list ;; below, email gem@cs.york.ac.uk quoting the version of the library ;; you are using, the version of Emacs you are using, and a small ;; example of the problem or suggestion. Note that this library ;; requires a reasonably recent version of Emacs. ;; ;; Uses `imenu' under Emacs, and `func-menu' under XEmacs. ;; ;; Version 1.2: ;; Added support for LaTeX-style literate scripts. ;; ;; Version 1.1: ;; Use own syntax table. Fixed bug for very small buffers. Use ;; markers instead of pointers (markers move with the text). ;; ;; Version 1.0: ;; Brought over from Haskell mode v1.1. ;; ;; ;; Present Limitations/Future Work (contributions are most welcome!): ;; ;; . Declarations requiring information extending beyond starting line ;; don't get scanned properly, eg. ;; > class Eq a => ;; > Test a ;; ;; . Comments placed in the midst of the first few lexemes of a ;; declaration will cause havoc, eg. ;; > infixWithComments :: Int -> Int -> Int ;; > x {-nastyComment-} `infixWithComments` y = x + y ;; but are not worth worrying about. ;; ;; . Would be nice to scan other top-level declarations such as ;; methods of a class, datatype field labels... any more? ;; ;; . Support for GreenCard? ;; ;; . Re-running (literate-)haskell-imenu should not cause the problems ;; that it does. The ability to turn off scanning would also be ;; useful. (Note that re-running (literate-)haskell-mode seems to ;; cause no problems.) ;; ;; . Inconsistency: we define the start of a declaration in `imenu' as ;; the start of the line the declaration starts on, but in ;; `func-menu' as the start of the name that the declaration is ;; given (eg. "class Eq a => Ord a ..." starts at "class" in `imenu' ;; but at "Ord" in `func-menu'). This avoids rescanning of the ;; buffer by the goto functions of `func-menu' but allows `imenu' to ;; have the better definition of the start of the declaration (IMO). ;; ;; . `func-menu' cannot cope well with spaces in declaration names. ;; This is unavoidable in "instance Eq Int" (changing the spaces to ;; underscores would cause rescans of the buffer). Note though that ;; `fume-prompt-function-goto' (usually bound to "C-c g") does cope ;; with spaces okay. ;; ;; . Would like to extend the goto functions given by `func-menu' ;; under XEmacs to Emacs. Would have to implement these ;; ourselves as `imenu' does not provide them. ;; ;; . `func-menu' uses its own syntax table when grabbing a declaration ;; name to lookup (why doesn't it use the syntax table of the ;; buffer?) so some declaration names will not be grabbed correctly, ;; eg. "fib'" will be grabbed as "fib" since "'" is not a word or ;; symbol constituent under the syntax table `func-menu' uses. ;; All functions/variables start with ;; `(turn-(on/off)-)haskell-decl-scan' or `haskell-ds-'. ;; The imenu support is based on code taken from `hugs-mode', ;; thanks go to Chris Van Humbeeck. ;; Version. ;;; Code: (require 'haskell-mode) (require 'syntax nil t) ; Emacs 21 add-on ;;###autoload ;; As `cl' defines macros that `imenu' uses, we must require them at ;; compile time.
