We could call this abstraction a + "transient command", but because it always involves at least two + commands (a prefix and a suffix) we prefer to call it just a + "transient". + + When the user calls a transient prefix command, then a transient + (temporary) keymap is activated, which binds the transient's infix + and suffix commands, and functions that control the transient state + are added to `pre-command-hook' and `post-command-hook'. The + available suffix and infix commands and their state are shown in + the echo area until the transient is exited by invoking a suffix + command. + + Calling an infix command causes its value to be changed, possibly + by reading a new value in the minibuffer. + + Calling a suffix command usually causes the transient to be exited + but suffix commands can also be configured to not exit the + transient state. +</longdescription> +<stabilize-allarches/> +<upstream> + <remote-id type="github">magit/transient</remote-id> +</upstream> +</pkgmetadata> |
