29 ;; This file is dumped with XEmacs.
30
31 ;; This file defines a unified mechanism for saving & loading files stored
32 ;; in different formats. `format-alist' contains information that directs
33 ;; Emacs to call an encoding or decoding function when reading or writing
34 ;; files that match certain conditions.
35 ;;
36 ;; When a file is visited, its format is determined by matching the
37 ;; beginning of the file against regular expressions stored in
38 ;; `format-alist'. If this fails, you can manually translate the buffer
39 ;; using `format-decode-buffer'. In either case, the formats used are
40 ;; listed in the variable `buffer-file-format', and become the default
41 ;; format for saving the buffer. To save a buffer in a different format,
42 ;; change this variable, or use `format-write-file'.
43 ;;
44 ;; Auto-save files are normally created in the same format as the visited
45 ;; file, but the variable `auto-save-file-format' can be set to a
46 ;; particularly fast or otherwise preferred format to be used for
47 ;; auto-saving (or nil to do no encoding on auto-save files, but then you
48 ;; risk losing any text-properties in the buffer).
49 ;;
50 ;; You can manually translate a buffer into or out of a particular format
51 ;; with the functions `format-encode-buffer' and `format-decode-buffer'.
52 ;; To translate just the region use the functions `format-encode-region'
53 ;; and `format-decode-region'.
54 ;;
55 ;; You can define a new format by writing the encoding and decoding
56 ;; functions, and adding an entry to `format-alist'. See enriched.el for
57 ;; an example of how to implement a file format. There are various
58 ;; functions defined in this file that may be useful for writing the
59 ;; encoding and decoding functions:
60 ;; * `format-annotate-region' and `format-deannotate-region' allow a
61 ;; single alist of information to be used for encoding and decoding.
62 ;; The alist defines a correspondence between strings in the file
63 ;; ("annotations") and text-properties in the buffer.
64 ;; * `format-replace-strings' is similarly useful for doing simple
65 ;; string->string translations in a reversible manner.

91 Elements are of the form \(NAME DOC-STR REGEXP FROM-FN TO-FN MODIFY MODE-FN).
92 NAME is a symbol, which is stored in `buffer-file-format'.
93 DOC-STR should be a single line providing more information about the
94 format. It is currently unused, but in the future will be shown to
95 the user if they ask for more information.
96 REGEXP is a regular expression to match against the beginning of the file;
97 it should match only files in that format.
98 FROM-FN is called to decode files in that format; it gets two args, BEGIN
99 and END, and can make any modifications it likes, returning the new
100 end. It must make sure that the beginning of the file no longer
101 matches REGEXP, or else it will get called again.
102 TO-FN is called to encode a region into that format; it is passed three
103 arguments: BEGIN, END, and BUFFER. BUFFER is the original buffer that
104 the data being written came from, which the function could use, for
105 example, to find the values of local variables. TO-FN should either
106 return a list of annotations like `write-region-annotate-functions',
107 or modify the region and return the new end.
108 MODIFY, if non-nil, means the TO-FN wants to modify the region. If nil,
109 TO-FN will not make any changes but will instead return a list of
110 annotations.
111 MODE-FN, if specified, is called when visiting a file with that format.")

430 This sets text properties between FROM to TO as directed by the
431 TRANSLATIONS and NEXT-FN arguments.
432
433 NEXT-FN is a function that searches forward from point for an annotation.
434 It should return a list of 4 elements: \(BEGIN END NAME POSITIVE). BEGIN and
435 END are buffer positions bounding the annotation, NAME is the name searched
436 for in TRANSLATIONS, and POSITIVE should be non-nil if this annotation marks
437 the beginning of a region with some property, or nil if it ends the region.
438 NEXT-FN should return nil if there are no annotations after point.
439
440 The basic format of the TRANSLATIONS argument is described in the
441 documentation for the `format-annotate-region' function. There are some
442 additional things to keep in mind for decoding, though:
443
444 When an annotation is found, the TRANSLATIONS list is searched for a
445 text-property name and value that corresponds to that annotation. If the
446 text-property has several annotations associated with it, it will be used only
447 if the other annotations are also in effect at that point. The first match
448 found whose annotations are all present is used.
449
450 The text property thus determined is set to the value over the region between
451 the opening and closing annotations. However, if the text-property name has a
452 non-nil `format-list-valued' property, then the value will be consed onto the
453 surrounding value of the property, rather than replacing that value.
454
455 There are some special symbols that can be used in the \"property\" slot of
456 the TRANSLATIONS list: PARAMETER and FUNCTION \(spelled in uppercase).
457 Annotations listed under the pseudo-property PARAMETER are considered to be
458 arguments of the immediately surrounding annotation; the text between the
459 opening and closing parameter annotations is deleted from the buffer but saved
460 as a string. The surrounding annotation should be listed under the
461 pseudo-property FUNCTION. Instead of inserting a text-property for this
462 annotation, the function listed in the VALUE slot is called to make whatever
463 changes are appropriate. The function's first two arguments are the START and
464 END locations, and the rest of the arguments are any PARAMETERs found in that
465 region.
466
467 Any annotations that are found by NEXT-FN but not defined by TRANSLATIONS
468 are saved as values of the `unknown' text-property \(which is list-valued).
469 The TRANSLATIONS list should usually contain an entry of the form
470 \(unknown \(nil format-annotate-value))
471 to write these unknown annotations back into the file."

634 properties not to consider; any text properties that are neither ignored nor
635 listed in TRANSLATIONS are warned about.
636 If you actually want to modify the region, give the return value of this
637 function to `format-insert-annotations'.
638
639 Format of the TRANSLATIONS argument:
640
641 Each element is a list whose car is a PROPERTY, and the following
642 elements are VALUES of that property followed by the names of zero or more
643 ANNOTATIONS. Whenever the property takes on that value, the annotations
644 \(as formatted by FORMAT-FN) are inserted into the file.
645 When the property stops having that value, the matching negated annotation
646 will be inserted \(it may actually be closed earlier and reopened, if
647 necessary, to keep proper nesting).
648
649 If the property's value is a list, then each element of the list is dealt with
650 separately.
651
652 If a VALUE is numeric, then it is assumed that there is a single annotation
653 and each occurrence of it increments the value of the property by that number.
654 Thus, given the entry \(left-margin \(4 \"indent\")), if the left margin
655 changes from 4 to 12, two <indent> annotations will be generated.
656
657 If the VALUE is nil, then instead of annotations, a function should be
658 specified. This function is used as a default: it is called for all
659 transitions not explicitly listed in the table. The function is called with
660 two arguments, the OLD and NEW values of the property. It should return
661 lists of annotations like `format-annotate-location' does.
