Author: Jonas Bernoulli <jonas@bernoul.li>
Commit: Jonas Bernoulli <jonas@bernoul.li>

    remove with-editor.info
    
    This wasn't supposed to be tracked.  Having to track with-editor.texi
    is bad enough already.

-This is with-editor.info, produced by makeinfo version 5.2 from
-with-editor.texi.
-
-The library ‘with-editor’ makes it easy to use the Emacsclient as the
-‘$EDITOR’ of child processes, making sure they know how to call home.
-For remote processes a substitute is provided, which communicates with
-Emacs on standard output instead of using a socket as the Emacsclient
-does.
-
-   This library was written because Magit has to be able to do the above
-to allow the user to edit commit messages gracefully and to edit rebase
-sequences, which wouldn’t be possible at all otherwise.
-
-   Because other packages can benefit from such functionality, this
-library is made available as a separate package.  It also defines some
-additional functionality which makes it useful even for end-users, who
-don’t use Magit or another package which uses it internally.

-*******************************
-
-The ‘With-Editor’ package is used internally by Magit when editing
-commit messages and rebase sequences.  It also provides some commands
-and features which are useful by themselves, even if you don’t use
-Magit.

-1.1 Configuring With-Editor
-===========================
-
-With-Editor tries very hard to locate a suitable emacsclient executable,
-so ideally you should never have to customize the option
-‘with-editor-emacsclient-executable’.  When it fails to do so, then the
-most likely reason is that someone found yet another way to package
-Emacs (most likely on OS X) without putting the executable on ‘$PATH’,
-and we have to add another kludge to find it anyway.
-
- -- User Option: with-editor-emacsclient-executable
-
-     The emacsclient executable used as the editor by child process of
-     this Emacs instance.  By using this executable, child processes can
-     call home to their parent process.
-
-     This option is automatically set at startup by looking in
-     ‘exec-path’, and other places where the executable could be
-     installed, to find the emacsclient executable most suitable for the
-     current emacs instance.
-
-     You should *not* customize this option permanently.  If you have to
-     do it, then you should consider that a temporary kludge and inform
-     the Magit maintainer as described in *note Debugging: Debugging.
-
-     If With-Editor fails to find a suitable emacsclient on you system,
-     then this should be fixed for all users at once, by teaching
-     ‘with-editor-locate-emacsclient’ how to so on your system and
-     system like yours.  Doing it this way has the advantage, that you
-     won’t have do it again every time you update Emacs, and that other
-     users who have installed Emacs the same way as you have, won’t have
-     to go through the same trouble.
-
-     Note that there also is a nuclear option; setting this variable to
-     ‘nil’ causes the "sleeping editor" described below to be used even
-     for local child processes.  Obviously we don’t recommend that you
-     use this except in "emergencies", i.e.  before we had a change to
-     add a kludge appropriate for you setup.
-
- -- Function: with-editor-locate-emacsclient
-
-     The function used to set the initial value of the option
-     ‘with-editor-emacsclient-executable’.  There’s a lot of voodoo
-     here.
-
-   The emacsclient cannot be used when using Tramp to run a process on a
-remote machine.  (Theoretically it could, but that would be hard to
-setup, very fragile, and rather insecure).
-
-   With-Editor provides an alternative "editor" which can be used by
-remote processes in much the same way as local processes use an
-emacsclient executable.  This alternative is known as the "sleeping
-editor" because it is implemented as a shell script which sleeps until
-it receives a signal.
-
- -- User Option: with-editor-sleeping-editor
-
-     The sleeping editor is a shell script used as the editor of child
-     processes when the emacsclient executable cannot be used.
-
-     This fallback is used for asynchronous process started inside the
-     macro ‘with-editor’, when the process runs on a remote machine or
-     for local processes when ‘with-editor-emacsclient-executable’ is
-     ‘nil’.
-
-     Where the latter uses a socket to communicate with Emacs’ server,
-     this substitute prints edit requests to its standard output on
-     which a process filter listens for such requests.  As such it is
-     not a complete substitute for a proper Emacsclient, it can only be
-     used as ‘$EDITOR’ of child process of the current Emacs instance.
-
-     It is unlikely that you should ever have to customize this option.

-1.2 Using With-Editor commands
-==============================
-
-This section describes how to use the ‘with-editor’ library _outside_ of
-Magit.  You don’t need to know any of this just to create commits using
-Magit.
-
-   The commands ‘with-editor-async-shell-command’ and
-‘with-editor-shell-command’ are intended as drop in replacements for
-‘async-shell-command’ and ‘shell-command’.  They automatically export
-‘$EDITOR’ making sure the executed command uses the current Emacs
-instance as "the editor".  With a prefix argument these commands prompt
-for an alternative environment variable such as ‘$GIT_EDITOR’.
-
- -- Command: with-editor-async-shell-command
-
-     Like ‘async-shell-command’, but the command is run with the current
-     Emacs instance exported as ‘$EDITOR’.
-
- -- Command: with-editor-shell-command
-
-     Like ‘async-shell-command’, but the command is run with the current
-     Emacs instance exported as ‘$EDITOR’.  This only has an effect if
-     the command is run asynchronously, i.e.  when the command ends with
-     ‘&’.
-
-   To always use these variants add this to you init file:
-
-     (define-key (current-global-map)
-       [remap async-shell-command] 'with-editor-async-shell-command)
-     (define-key (current-global-map)
-       [remap shell-command] 'with-editor-shell-command)
-
-   Alternatively use the global ‘shell-command-with-editor-mode’.
-
- -- Variable: shell-command-with-editor-mode
-
-     When this mode is active, then ‘$EDITOR’ is exported whenever
-     ultimately ‘shell-command’ is called to asynchronously run some
-     shell command.  This affects most variants of that command, whether
-     they are defined in Emacs or in some third-party package.
-
-   The command ‘with-editor-export-editor’ exports ‘$EDITOR’ or another
-such environment variable in ‘shell-mode’, ‘term-mode’ and ‘eshell-mode’
-buffers.  Use this Emacs command before executing a shell command which
-needs the editor set, or always arrange for the current Emacs instance
-to be used as editor by adding it to the appropriate mode hooks:
-
-     (add-hook 'shell-mode-hook  'with-editor-export-editor)
-     (add-hook 'term-mode-hook   'with-editor-export-editor)
-     (add-hook 'eshell-mode-hook 'with-editor-export-editor)
-
-   Some variants of this function exist; these two forms are equivalent:
-
-     (add-hook 'shell-mode-hook
-         (apply-partially 'with-editor-export-editor "GIT_EDITOR"))
-     (add-hook 'shell-mode-hook 'with-editor-export-git-editor)
-
- -- Command: with-editor-export-editor
-
-     When invoked in a ‘shell-mode’, ‘term-mode’, or ‘eshell-mode’
-     buffer, this command teaches shell commands to use the current
-     Emacs instance as the editor, by exporting ‘$EDITOR’.
-
- -- Command: with-editor-export-git-editor
-
-     Like ‘with-editor-export-editor’ but exports ‘$GIT_EDITOR’.
-
- -- Command: with-editor-export-hg-editor
-
-     Like ‘with-editor-export-editor’ but exports ‘$HG_EDITOR’.

-2 Using With-Editor as a library
-********************************
-
-This section describes how to use the with-editor library _outside_ of
-Magit to teach another package how to have its child processes call
-home, just like Magit does.  You don’t need to know any of this just to
-create commits using Magit.  You can also ignore this if you use
-‘with-editor’ outside of Magit, but only as an end-user.
-
-   For information about interactive use and options which affect both
-interactive and non-interactive use, see *note Using the With-Editor
-package: Using the With-Editor package.
-
- -- Macro: with-editor &rest body
-
-     This macro arranges for the emacsclient or the sleeping editor to
-     be used as the editor of child processes, effectively teaching them
-     to call home to the current emacs instance when they require that
-     the user edits a file.
-
-     This is essentially done by establishing a local binding for
-     ‘process-environment’ and changing the value of the ‘$EDITOR’
-     environment variable.  This affects all processes started by forms
-     inside BODY.
-
- -- Function: with-editor-set-process-filter process filter
-
-     This function is like ‘set-process-filter’ but ensures that adding
-     the new FILTER does not remove the ‘with-editor-process-filter’.
-     This is done by wrapping the two filter functions using a lambda,
-     which becomes the actual filter.  It calls
-     ‘with-editor-process-filter’ first, passing ‘t’ as
-     NO-STANDARD-FILTER. Then it calls FILTER.

-3 Debugging
-***********
-
-With-Editor tries very hard to locate a suitable emacsclient executable,
-and then sets option ‘with-editor-emacsclient-executable’ accordingly.
-In very rare cases this fails.  When it does fail, then the most likely
-reason is that someone found yet another way to package Emacs (most
-likely on OS X) without putting the executable on ‘$PATH’, and we have
-to add another kludge to find it anyway.
-
-   If you are having problems using ‘with-editor’, e.g.  you cannot
-commit in Magit, then please open a new issue at
-<https://github.com/magit/magit/issues> and provide information about
-your Emacs installation.  Most importantly how did you install Emacs and
-what is the output of ‘M-x with-editor-debug’?
