Re: Sv: Sv: Christmas wish: Literate Elisp

[Jonathan Leech-Pepin]

Arthur,

Have you happened to have looked at Outshine (https://github.com/alphapapa/outshine)?

It enhances outline-minor-mode and lets it work with standard org-syntax while in comment blocks (and defines hotkeys to swap into an edit buffer that makes it look like a normal Org-Mode buffer).

By keeping the literate syntax in comments you don't break the existing parser.

Regards,

Jon

Sorry, I didn’t realized what you ment. I am not sure I know that much of elisp,

but I may try to look at, would be lots of learning for me 😊.

Note that in my comment above I meant it in existing Emacsen,
i.e. without any modification to the C code.
The idea is to make use of existing hooks such as
`load-source-file-function` or `file-name-handler-alist`.

I'm not sure what hook could be used to do the same with
byte-compilation, but in the worst case, an advice should do the trick.
