;; By: Christopher R. Genovese
;; Keywords: window, switch, key bindings, ergonomic, efficient
;; Compatibility: GNU Emacs 22, GNU Emacs 23, Gnu Emacs 24.0.50
;; Tested on these versions on Mac OS X 10.5.
;; Testing or feedback for other platforms/versions
;; would be very much appreciated.
;;; Commentary:
;;
;; If you use multiple windows in an Emacs frame, you may find yourself
;; moving through the window configuration using `other-window' (C-x o)
;; again and again. Because the order of windows in the window list
;; need not relate intuitively to windows' positions, moving
;; efficiently can require context-specific prefix arguments along the
;; way. The tiring outcome is that navigation through a complex window
;; configuration demands many keystrokes and nontrivial attention.
;; This package is designed to solve that problem.
;;
;; While the `windmove' package provides functions for moving
;; intuitively among windows, the natural key bindings for these
;; functions (e.g., the arrow keys with some modifier) require a
;; distant and thus inefficient hand movement. Moreover, one often
;; wants to mix a variety of window-based operations (other-window,
;; previous-window, directional movement, resizing) in rapid
;; succession.
;;
;; This package builds on the windmove functionality by defining a
;; command `win-switch-dispatch' that engages a dynamic, transient
;; keyboard override, allowing one to efficiently move among defined
;; windows (and frames) -- and even resize, split, delete them -- with
;; minimal fuss and effort. When the override is engaged, the movement
;; and resizing commands are bound to simple keys that can be pressed
;; quickly with one hand. The override ends either when the user exits
;; explicitly or after a configurable idle time threshold. The happy
;; outcome is fast and seamless navigation.
;;
;; To use the package, execute the following code either directly
;; or in your .emacs file:
;;
;; (require 'win-switch)
;; (global-set-key "\C-xo" 'win-switch-dispatch)
;;
;; or use whatever keybinding you ordinarily have set to `other-window'.
;; Alternatively, you can use one of a variety of predefined configuration
;; commands, as in
;;
;; (require 'win-switch)
;; (win-switch-setup-keys-ijkl "\C-xo")
;;
;; which has the same effect as the above.
;;
;; Now, when executing a window switch (i.e., hitting C-xo), Emacs enters
;; window switching mode, which lasts until either the user exits the
;; mode or the idle time exceeds the threshold `win-switch-idle-time'.
;; During this override, selected keys move among windows (or frames)
;; or resize the windows. The following keys are bound by default:
;;
;; + i select the window above the current window.
;; + k select the window below the current window.
;; + j select the window left of the current window.
;; + l select the window right of the current window.
;; + o cycle forward through the window list in the current frame.
;; + p cycle backward through the window list in the current frame.
;; + SPACE cycles among existing frames.
;; + u (and RETURN) exit window switching mode.
;; + I and K vertically enlarge and shrink the current window, respectively.
;; + J and L horizontally enlarge and shrink the current window, respectively.
;; + h and ; split the current window, horizontally and vertically, respectively.
;; + ESCAPE acts as an "emergency" exit
;;
;; All other keys exit window switching mode and execute their original function.
;;
;; By default, window selection wraps around when moving across a frame
;; edge and window switching mode is forgone when there are only two
;; windows. But these features, the key bindings, and other parameters
;; can all be customized, either with the customization facility or
;; with defvar and setter functions.
;;
;; The default keybindings are designed for fast and intuitve,
;; one-handed operation, but if desired the key bindings can be easily
;; adjusted or reset. Several alternative key configurations are pre-defined
;; (see `win-switch-setup-keys-ijkl', `win-switch-setup-keys-arrow-ctrl',
;; `win-switch-setup-keys-arrow-meta', and `win-switch-setup-keys-esdf'
;; below). The keys also can be rebound in groups via the variables
;; `win-switch-<name>-keys' where <name> can be one of up, down, left,
;; right, next-window, previous-window, enlarge-vertically,
;; shrink-vertically, enlarge-horizontally, shrink-horizontally,
;; other-frame, exit, split-vertically, split-horizontally, delete-window,
;; or emergency-exit. These variables should not be set directly,
;; but rather should be set either by customize or by
;; using the functions `win-switch-add-key', `win-switch-delete-key',
;; and `win-switch-set-keys'. For example:
;;
;; (win-switch-add-key "O" 'previous-window)
;; (win-switch-delete-key "p" 'previous-window)
;; (win-switch-set-keys '(" " "," "m") 'other-frame)
;;
;; Note that the last arguments here are win-switch commands not elisp
;; functions. (Note also that the emergency-exit keys do a hard exit in
;; case of an unexpected error in user-defined code such as in
;; customized feedback functions. This command may be removed in future
;; versions.) At least one exit key must always be defined. Revised
;; bindings can be set in in the hook `win-switch-load-hook' before
;; loading the package. (Also see `win-switch-define-key' for setting
;; general commands in the win-switch keymap, and
;; `win-switch-set-once-key' for setting commands in the once only
;; keymap used by `win-switch-dispatch-once'.)
;;
;; Besides key bindings, the most important customization options are
;; the following:
;;
;; + `win-switch-idle-time'
;; + `win-switch-window-threshold'
;; + `win-switch-other-window-first'
;; + `win-switch-wrap-around' (set via `win-switch-set-wrap-around')
;;
;; The idle time should be set so that one does not have to either rush
;; or wait. (While explicit exit always works, it is nice to have
;; window-switching mode end on its own at just the right time.) This
;; may require some personalized fiddling to find a comfortable value,
;; though the default should be pretty good. The window-threshold and
;; other-window-first control when and if window switching mode is
;; entered. And wrap-around determines if moving across the edge of the
;; frame wraps around to the window on the other side.
;;
;; The other customizable parameters are as follows:
;;
;; + `win-switch-provide-visual-feedback'
;; + `win-switch-feedback-background-color'
;; + `win-switch-feedback-foreground-color'
;; + `win-switch-on-feedback-function'
;; + `win-switch-off-feedback-function'
;; + `win-switch-other-window-function'
;;
;; The feedback mechanisms are intended to make it salient when
;; window switching mode is on or off and can be customized at
;; several scales. The other-window-function replaces `other-window'
;; for moving between window; the primary motivation is to allow
;; `icicle-other-window-or-frame' under icicles.
;;
;; And three hooks can be set as well:
;;
;; + `win-switch-load-hook'
;; + `win-switch-on-hook'
;; + `win-switch-off-hook'
;;
;; The following functions are used to set options:
;;
;; + `win-switch-set-wrap-around'
;; + `win-switch-add-key'
;; + `win-switch-delete-key'
;; + `win-switch-set-keys'
;;
;; There are three main entry points for using this functionality
;;
;; + `win-switch-dispatch' (alias `win-switch-mode')
;; + `win-switch-dispatch-once'
;; + `win-switch-dispatch-with'
;;
;; The first is the main function, the second is a prefix command that
;; gives one switch only but allows easy maneuvering in up to five
;; windows with a single keystroke. (The `once' keys can be set using
;; the `win-switch-set-once-keys' command.) The last constructs
;; commands for keybindings that dispatch after some other command.
;; (See `win-switch-setup-keys-arrow' for a nice example of its use.)
;;
;; NOTE: win-switch is not a formal major or minor mode, more of an
;; overriding mode. This started as a way to explore dynamic
;; keybindings, an idea that is generalized considerably in
;; my packages `quick-nav' and `power-keys'. The latter
;; introduces some programming abstractions that can be used
;; to easily install dynamic keymaps of several flavors.
;; I plan to use the `power-keys' mechanisms for this package
;; in a later version.

;;; Change Log:
;;
;; * 18 Dec 2011 -- Fixed error in keylist management functions that
;; masked changes to keys on other lists. This
;; affected `win-switch-custom-set-keys',
;; `win-switch-add-key', and `win-switch-delete-key'.
;; Also fixed a few documentation typos.
;; Thanks to Mark Hepburn and Brett Presnell for
;; finding the error.
;;
;; * 11 Sep 2011 -- Fixed typo in `win-switch-setup-keys-arrow-ctrl'
;; and `win-switch-setup-keys-arrow-meta'.
;; Thanks to mpdflaccuesupport.
;;
;; * 27 Aug 2011 -- Fixed missing hyphen in `win-switch-authors-configuration'
;;
;; * 20 Aug 2011 -- Updated documentation, moved split and delete
;; keys after the others in the file and added function
;; to suppress them if desired. Added timer to end
;; `win-switch-off-alert' message.
;;
;; * 19 Aug 2011 -- Adjusted for Emacs shadowing default bindings
;; in sub-keymaps. Whenever `win-switch-map' is
;; set or adjusted, the default binding is added
;; if necessary to the map and sub-keymaps.
;; Also, allowed `win-switch-other-window-first'
;; to be a function to allow context sensitive
;; behavior. Added `win-switch-delete-window-keys'
;; and put delete-window in command list.
;;
;; * 05 Aug 2011 -- Fixed setting functions for the once keys,
;; added author config FYI, and minor bug fixes.
;;
;; * 02 Aug 2011 -- Added setup-key functions, win-switch-dispatch-with,
;; win-switch-dispatch-once, minor bug fixes in
;; in setters, some clode clean up.
;;
;; * 01 Aug 2011 -- Added additional hooks, adjusted window-threshold
;; handling, added add-key and delete-key setters,
;; finalized the documentation, and ran tests.
;;
;; * 30 Jul 2011 -- Added customization framework, frame switching, and
;; custom feedback and other-window functions.
;;
;; * 29 Jul 2011 -- Adjusted keymap initialization, changed behavior
;; of `win-switch-dispatch' with prefix arguments
;;
;; * 28 Jul 2011 -- Completed and tested main functionality; rediscovered
;; several times that messing with overriding-loca-map
;; can be dangerous.

;; Because of a bug (or what I think should be considered a bug) in
;; Emacs, adding sparse prefix key map can shadow the default binding
;; for unbound keys with the same prefix. For instance, if the user adds
;; a binding to a key involving the Meta modifier when no such binding
;; was included before, a sub-keymap is created under meta-prefix-char
;; (default escape or 27). But the default for `win-switch-map' will
;; *not* be found by the lookup process for any unbound meta key
;; sequence. This can cause problems because window-switching mode will
;; not be exited automatically in this case as it should.
;;
;; The function `win-switch-fix-keymap-defaults' adds the necessary
;; defaults in the keymap and sub-keymaps. It is used in the key setting
;; functions and in the `win-switch-map' keymap definition itself.
;;
(defun win-switch-fix-keymap-defaults (map)
"Adjust keymap MAP to include proper exit defaults.
Returns a modified version of MAP that may share some structure
with the original. In the modified map itself and in any
sub-keymaps, a default binding is added, if a default is not
already present. The default is bound to
`win-switch-exit-and-redo'. This ensures that unbound key
sequences exit from window switching mode. Without this, adding a
sparse prefix key map can shadow the default binding for unbound
keys with the same prefix."
