27.0.50; PROPOSAL: introduce a new function to recenter without redisplaying the frame |
Date: |
Tue, 01 May 2018 00:48:25 +0000 |
This BUG is a continuation of this help-gnu-emacs mailing list
thread [1]. As mentioned in the thread, I ran into a terminal flickering
issue in flycheck which turns out to be caused by `recenter'
redisplaying the frame when `recenter-redisplay' value is either `t' or
`tty'. I agree with the arguments in the thread to maintain the backward
compatible behavior. Instead, I'm proposing one of the following
alternatives:
1. introduce a new lisp function for recentering and discourage the use
of `recenter' from lisp (i.e. declaring it `interactive-only'), or
2. add a new `recenter-and-redisplay' and bound it to C-l
Also, Stefan's suggestion/possible solution:
3. adding an argument to `recenter' to control the redisplay behavior

Thanks, pushed to the master branch.
Please in the future mention the bug number in the log message, and
also grep the sources for callers of the functions you change. (In
this case, there was one caller in w32console.c, and it wouldn't
compile after the change, because the number of arguments changed.)
