;;; Commentary:

;; Introduction
;; ============
;;
;;
;; The main user entry point is `el-search-pattern'.  This command
;; prompts for a `pcase' pattern and searches the current buffer for
;; matching expressions by iteratively `read'ing buffer contents.  For
;; any match, point is put at the beginning of the expression found
;; (unlike isearch which puts point at the end of matches).
;;
;; Why is it based on `pcase'?  Because pattern matching (and the
;; ability to combine destructuring and condition testing) is well
;; suited for this task.  In addition, pcase allows to add specialized
;; pattern types and to combine them with other patterns in a natural
;; and transparent way out of the box.
;;
;; It doesn't matter how the code is actually formatted.  Comments are
;; ignored, and strings are treated as atomic objects, their contents
;; are not being searched.
;;
;;
;; Example 1: if you enter
;;
;;    97
;;
;; at the prompt, this will find any occurrence of the number 97 in
;; the code, but not 977 or (+ 90 7) or "My string containing 97".
;; But it will find anything `eq' to 97 after reading, e.g. #x61 or
;; ?a.
;;
;;
;; Example 2: If you enter the pattern
;;
;;   `(defvar ,_)
;;
;; you search for all defvar forms that don't specify an init value.
;; 
;; The following will search for defvar forms with a docstring whose
;; first line is longer than 70 characters:
;;
;;   `(defvar ,_ ,_
;;      ,(and s (guard (< 70 (length (car (split-string s "\n")))))))
;;
;;
;; When a search pattern is processed, the searched buffer is current
;; with point at the beginning of the currently tested expression.
;;
;;
;; Convenience
;; ===========
;;
;; For pattern input, the minibuffer is put into `emacs-lisp-mode'.
;;
;; Any input PATTERN is silently transformed into (and exp PATTERN)
;; so that you can always refer to the whole currently tested
;; expression via the variable `exp'.
;;
;;
;; Example 3:
;;
;; If you want to search a buffer for symbols that are defined in
;; "cl-lib", you can use this pattern
;;
;;   (guard (and (symbolp exp)
;;               (when-let ((file (symbol-file exp)))
;;                 (string-match-p "cl-lib\\.elc?$" file))))
;;
;;
;; ,----------------------------------------------------------------------
;; | Q: "But I hate `pcase'!  Can't we just do without?"                 |
;; |                                                                     |
;; | A: Respect that you kept up until here! Just use (guard CODE), where|
;; | CODE is any normal Elisp expression that returns non-nil when and   |
;; | only when you have a match.  Use the variable `exp' to refer to     |
;; | the currently tested expression.  Just like in the last example!    |
;; `----------------------------------------------------------------------
;;
;;
;; It's cumbersome to write out the same complicated pattern
;; constructs in the minibuffer again and again.  You can define your
;; own pcase pattern types for the purpose of el-search with
;; `el-search-defpattern'.  It is just like `pcase-defmacro', but the
;; effect is limited to this package.  See C-h f `el-search-pattern'
;; for a list of predefined additional pattern forms.
;;
;;
;; Replacing
;; =========
;;
;; You can replace expressions with command `el-search-query-replace'.
;; You are queried for a (pcase) pattern and a replacement expression.
;; For each match of the pattern, the replacement expression is
;; evaluated with the bindings created by the pcase matching in
;; effect, and printed to produce the replacement string.
;;
;; Example: In some buffer you want to swap the two expressions at the
;; places of the first two arguments in all calls of function `foo',
;; so that e.g.
;;
;;   (foo 'a (* 2 (+ 3 4)) t)
;;
;; becomes
;;
;;   (foo (* 2 (+ 3 4)) 'a t).
;;
;; This will do it:
;;
;;    M-x el-search-query-replace RET
;;    `(foo ,a ,b . ,rest) RET
;;    `(foo ,b ,a . ,rest) RET
;;
;; Type y to replace a match and go to the next one, r to replace
;; without moving, SPC to go to the next match and ! to replace all
;; remaining matches automatically.  q quits.  n is like SPC, so that
;; y and n work like in isearch (meaning "yes" and "no") if you are
;; used to that.
;;
;; It is possible to replace a match with multiple expressions using
;; "splicing mode".  When it is active, the replacement expression
;; must evaluate to a list, and is spliced instead of inserted into
;; the buffer for any replaced match.  Use s to toggle splicing mode
;; in a `el-search-query-replace' session.
;;
;;
;; Suggested key bindings
;; ======================
;;
;;    (define-key emacs-lisp-mode-map [(control ?S)] #'el-search-pattern)
;;    (define-key emacs-lisp-mode-map [(control ?%)] #'el-search-query-replace)
;;
;;    (define-key isearch-mode-map [(control ?S)] #'el-search-search-from-isearch)
;;    (define-key isearch-mode-map [(control ?%)] #'el-search-replace-from-isearch)
;;
;; The bindings in `isearch-mode-map' let you conveniently switch to
;; elisp searching from isearch.
;;
;;
;; Bugs, Known Limitations
;; =======================
;;
;; - Replacing: in some cases the reader syntax of forms
;; is changing due to reading+printing.  "Some" because we can treat
;; that problem in most cases.
;;
;; - Similarly: Comments are normally preserved (where it makes
;; sense).  But when replacing like `(foo ,a ,b) -> `(foo ,b ,a)
;;
;; in a content like
;;
;;   (foo
;;     a
;;     ;;a comment
;;     b)
;;
;; the comment will be lost.
;;
;;
;;  Acknowledgments
;;  ===============
;;
;; Thanks to Stefan Monnier for corrections and advice.
;;
;;
;; TODO:
;;
;; - When replacing like (progn A B C) -> A B C, the layout of the
;; whole "group" A B C as a unit is lost.  Instead of restoring layout
;; as we do now (via "read mappings"), we could just make a backup of
;; the original expression as a string, and use our search machinery
;; to find occurrences in the replacement recursively.
;;
;; - detect infloops when replacing automatically (e.g. for 1 -> '(1))
;;
;; - implement backward searching
;;
;; - improve docstrings
;;
;; - handle more reader syntaxes, e.g. #n, #n#
;;
;; - Implement sessions; add multi-file support based on iterators.  A
;;   file list is read in (or the user can specify an iterator as a
;;   variable).  The state in the current buffer is just (buffer
;;   . marker).  Or should this be abstracted into an own lib?  Could
;;   be named "files-session" or so.

  "Alternative pattern type for matching lists.
Match any list with subsequent elements matched by all LPATS in
order.

The idea is to be able to search for pieces of code (i.e. lists)
with very brief input by using a specialized syntax.

An LPAT can take the following forms:

SYMBOL  Matches any symbol matched by SYMBOL's name interpreted as
        a regexp
STRING  Matches any string matched by STRING interpreted as a
        regexp
_       Matches any list element
__      Matches any number of list elements (including zero)
^       Matches zero elements, but only at the beginning of a list
$       Matches zero elements, but only at the end of a list
PAT     Anything else is interpreted as a normal pcase pattern, and
        matches one list element matched by it

^ is only valid as the first, $ as the last of the LPATS.

Example: To match defuns that contain \"hl\" in their name and
have at least one mandatory, but also optional arguments, you
could use this pattern:

    (l ^ 'defun hl (l _ &optional))"
  (let ((match-start nil) (match-end nil))
    (when (eq (car-safe lpats) '^)
      (setq match-start t)
