;;; sex-mode.el --- Shell EXecute mode / Send to EXternal program ;; ;; Author: Lennart Borgman (lennart O borgman A gmail O com) ;; Created: 2008-06-01T18:41:50+0200 Sun (defconst sex-mode:version "0.71") ;; Last-Updated: 2009-01-06 Tue ;; URL: ;; Keywords: ;; Compatibility: ;; ;; Features that might be required by this library: ;; ;; None ;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; ;;; Commentary: ;; ;; Open urls belonging to other programs with those programs. To ;; enable this turn on the global minor mode `sex-mode'. ;; ;; If you for example open a .pdf file with C-x C-f it can be opened ;; by the .pdf application you have set your computer to use. (Or, if ;; that such settings are not possible on your OS, with the ;; application you have choosen here.) ;; ;; There is also a defmacro `sex-with-temporary-apps' that you can use ;; for example with `find-file' to open files in external ;; applications. ;; ;; The functions used to open files in external applications are ;; borrowed from `org-mode'. There is some small differences: ;; ;; - There is an extra variable here `sex-file-apps' that is checked ;; before the corresponding lists in `org-mode'. ;; ;; - In `org-mode' any file that is not found in the lists (and is not ;; remote or a directory) is sent to an external application. This ;; would create trouble when used here in a file handler so the ;; logic is the reverse here: Any file that is not found in the ;; lists is opened inside Emacs. (Actually I think that might be a ;; good default in `org-mode' too, but I am not sure.) ;; ;; - Because of the above I have to guess which function is the one ;; that sends a file to an external application. ;; ;; (Currently the integration with org.el is not the best code wise. ;; We hope to improve that soon.) ;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; ;;; Change log: ;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; ;; This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or ;; modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as ;; published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or ;; (at your option) any later version. ;; ;; This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, ;; but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of ;; MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
