Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2017-12-14	Ensure that we don't call find-file with propertized strings0.4	Wilfred Hughes
	This breaks recentf, as it serialises the propertized string to a file ~/.recentf and then Emacs can't read the file on startup. Fixes #68.
2017-12-14	Emulate eval-expression more closely when reading new values	Wilfred Hughes
	Put point at the beginning of the new value, and run eval-expression-minibuffer-setup-hook so things like paredit get enabled.
2017-12-14	Ensure enabling and disabling edebug works as expected	Wilfred Hughes
	Edebug requires the source buffer to exist, so ensure we preserve the source buffer when edebugging. Ensure helpful--can-edebug-p returns the correct value, even if the source buffer was not freshly created.
2017-12-13	Don't offer Forget for primitives	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-13	Fix crash on definition of primitive variables	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-13	Ensure that we cleanup freshly created buffers	Wilfred Hughes
	This fixes the failing tests. It also ensures that we show the correct source code for primitive functions/special forms. We also use (-let ((foo nil)) ...) rather than (-let ((foo)) ...) or (-let (foo) ...) to work around an edebug issue: https://github.com/magnars/dash.el/issues/256
2017-12-13	Allow enabling edebug from helpful buffers	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-13	Calculate C paths relative to find-function-C-source-directory	Wilfred Hughes
	Fixes #65
2017-12-12	Add unit test for helpful on macros	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-12	Add TODO	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-11	Handle edebug properties being a single marker	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-11	Add a cleanup command helpful-kill-buffers	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Don't crash on edebugged functions	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Require emacs 25.1+	Wilfred Hughes
	find-function-library is not defined in earlier versions.
2017-12-10	Use the library name, not the raw path	Wilfred Hughes
	Otherwise, we end up opening the .elc file, which is pointless and leaves leftover buffers.
2017-12-10	Update changelog	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Only try to kill the buffer we've created	Wilfred Hughes
	If buf (the buffer containing the symbol definition) is nil, we end up killing the current buffer. The current buffer is the buffer that we're trying to write into. Fixes #58
2017-12-10	Only prepend whitespace if there was a previous button	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Ensure that we handle interactively defined functions	Wilfred Hughes
	Also add a test
2017-12-10	Ensure we can find the definition of functions even in narrowed buffers	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Remove completed todo	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Fix whitespace	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Minor tidying	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Better handling of special forms	Wilfred Hughes
	Ensure the buffer name is correct, and update the helpful-callable docstrings to mention special forms too. Don't offer to forget special forms -- this will probably break your Emacs instance.
2017-12-10	Allow users to call Customize from helpful buffers	Wilfred Hughes
	Closes #59
2017-12-10	helpful-update now returns nil, so don't use 'should	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Allow setting and toggling variables	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Show the name of the variable too	Wilfred Hughes
	This is useful in general, and more consistent, but it's particularly useful for variable that don't have documentation. Previously, we would just show the value, which is a little confusing. Fixes #19.
2017-12-10	Preserve point position more precisely	Wilfred Hughes
	Going the previous char position is inaccurate if the amount of text on each line has changed.
2017-12-10	Always show a blank line before buttons	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-10	Prefer make-text-button over custom wrappers	Wilfred Hughes
	These were previously calling insert-text-button, pointlessly requiring us to create a temporary buffer. In most cases, they also don't add anything over calling make-text-button directly.
2017-12-10	Ensure helpful--dissassembly passes the symbol	Wilfred Hughes
	We can use the buffer-local variable, but it's inconsistent and error-prone.
2017-12-07	Require shut-up (#62)	Daniel Kraus
	Otherwise helpful fails if shut-up is not loaded yet.
2017-12-06	Next release will be 0.4	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-06	Update changelog0.3	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-06	Allow moving with TAB and S-TAB	Wilfred Hughes
	Fixes #5
2017-12-06	Silence info lookups	Wilfred Hughes

2017-12-06	Improve buffer name	Wilfred Hughes
	Buffer names now take the form helpful function: foo or helpful variable: foo so we can distinguish the different namespaces more clearly. Closes #55
2017-12-06	Document usage	Wilfred Hughes
	Show how to set up keybindings, and stress the difference between describe-function, helpful-function, and helpful-callable. Closes #39 Closes #60
2017-11-29	Fix byte compiler warning	Wilfred Hughes

2017-11-29	Fix typo	Wilfred Hughes

2017-11-20	Go to the source when pressing RET on the code excerpt	Wilfred Hughes

2017-11-16	Cleanup temporary info buffer	Wilfred Hughes
	I can't reproduce this in a live Emacs instance, but it's failing in the ERT CLI runner.
2017-11-16	Update tests broken in 3e10f70	Wilfred Hughes

2017-11-16	Disable undercover until we've fixed tests	Wilfred Hughes

2017-11-16	Merge pull request #53 from narendraj9/master	Wilfred Hughes
	Fix helpful-find-var for variables defined in C-Source
2017-11-12	Add autoload for helpful-callable	Wilfred Hughes
	Fixes #52
2017-11-12	Fix helpful-find-var for variables defined in C-Source	Narendra Joshi

2017-11-03	Show the value of buffer-local values	Wilfred Hughes
	When creating a helpful buffer, associate it with an underlying buffer, and look up the variable in that context. This ensures that we show the correct value for buffer-local variables. Fixes #50
2017-10-16	Simplify and rename helpful--position-head	Wilfred Hughes
	helpful--outer-sexp more closely reflects the purpose of the function, which is to summarise the outer sexp. Use beginning-of-defun rather than walking the sexp ourself. Hopefully this will help with #46.
