  24 ;;; Commentary:
  25
  26 ;; When I have to come up with regular expressions that are more
  27 ;; complex than simple string matchers, especially if they contain sub
  28 ;; expressions, I find myself spending quite some time in the
  29 ;; `development cycle'.  `re-builder' aims to shorten this time span
  30 ;; so I can get on with the more interesting bits.
  31
  32 ;; With it you can have immediate visual feedback about how well the
  33 ;; regexp behaves to your expectations on the intended data.
  34
  35 ;; When called up `re-builder' attaches itself to the current buffer
  36 ;; which becomes its target buffer, where all the matching is done.
  37 ;; The active window is split so you have a view on the data while
  38 ;; authoring the RE.  If the edited expression is valid the matches in
  39 ;; the target buffer are marked automatically with colored overlays
  40 ;; (for non-color displays see below) giving you feedback over the
  41 ;; extents of the matched (sub) expressions.  The (non-)validity is
  42 ;; shown only in the modeline without throwing the errors at you.  If
  43 ;; you want to know the reason why RE Builder considers it as invalid
  44 ;; call `reb-force-update' ("\C-c\C-u") which should reveal the error.
  45
  46 ;; The target buffer can be changed with `reb-change-target-buffer'
  47 ;; ("\C-c\C-b").  Changing the target buffer automatically removes
  48 ;; the overlays from the old buffer and displays the new one in the
  49 ;; target window.
  50
  51 ;; The `re-builder' keeps the focus while updating the matches in the
  52 ;; target buffer so corrections are easy to incorporate.  If you are
  53 ;; satisfied with the result you can paste the RE to the kill-ring
  54 ;; with `reb-copy' ("\C-c\C-w"), quit the `re-builder' ("\C-c\C-q")
  55 ;; and use it wherever you need it.
  56
  57 ;; As the automatic updates can take some time on large buffers, they
  58 ;; can be limited by `reb-auto-match-limit' so that they should not
  59 ;; have a negative impact on the editing.  Setting it to nil makes
  60 ;; even the auto updates go all the way.  Forcing an update overrides
  61 ;; this limit allowing an easy way to see all matches.
  62
  63 ;; Currently `re-builder' understands three different forms of input,
  64 ;; namely `read', `string', and `rx' syntax.  Read
  65 ;; syntax and string syntax are both delimited by `"'s and behave
  66 ;; according to their name.  With the `string' syntax there's no need
  67 ;; to escape the backslashes and double quotes simplifying the editing
  68 ;; somewhat.  The other three allow editing of symbolic regular
  69 ;; expressions supported by the packages of the same name.
  70
  71 ;; Editing symbolic expressions is done through a major mode derived
  72 ;; from `emacs-lisp-mode' so you'll get all the good stuff like
  73 ;; automatic indentation and font-locking etc.
  74
  75 ;; When editing a symbolic regular expression, only the first
  76 ;; expression in the RE Builder buffer is considered, which helps
  77 ;; limiting the extent of the expression like the `"'s do for the text
  78 ;; modes.  For the `rx' syntax the function `rx-to-string' is applied to
  79 ;; the evaluated expression read.  So you can use quoted arguments
  80 ;; with something like '("findme") or you can construct arguments to
  81 ;; your hearts delight with a valid ELisp expression.  (The compiled
  82 ;; string form will be copied by `reb-copy')  If you want to take
  83 ;; a glance at the corresponding string you can temporarily change the
  84 ;; input syntax.
  85
  86 ;; Changing the input syntax is transparent (for the obvious exception
  87 ;; non-symbolic -> symbolic) so you can change your mind as often as
  88 ;; you like.
  89
  90 ;; There is also a shortcut function for toggling the
  91 ;; `case-fold-search' variable in the target buffer with an immediate
  92 ;; update.
  93
  94
  95 ;; Q: But what if my display cannot show colored overlays?
  96 ;; A: Then the cursor will flash around the matched text making it stand
  97 ;;    out.
  98
  99 ;; Q: But how can I then make out the sub-expressions?
 100 ;; A: Thats where the `sub-expression mode' comes in.  In it only the
 101 ;;    digit keys are assigned to perform an update that will flash the
 102 ;;    corresponding subexp only.
