Emacs version of the Vim powerline.
This is a proposed version 2.0 of the original Emacs Powerline which is a fork of vim-powerline.
(require 'powerline)
(powerline-default)
The powerline-default function provides a default mode-line. You can write your own or copy and modify the mode-line-format contents provided.
(setq-default mode-line-format
'("%e"
(:eval
(let* ((active (eq (frame-selected-window) (selected-window)))
(face1 (if active 'powerline-active1 'powerline-inactive1))
(face2 (if active 'powerline-active2 'powerline-inactive2))
(lhs (list
(powerline-raw "%*" nil 'l)
(powerline-buffer-size nil 'l)
(powerline-buffer-id nil 'l)
(powerline-raw " ")
(powerline-arrow-right nil face1)
(powerline-major-mode face1 'l)
(powerline-minor-modes face1 'l)
(powerline-raw mode-line-process face1 'l)
(powerline-narrow face1 'l)
(powerline-arrow-right face1 face2)
(powerline-vc face2)
))
(rhs (list
(powerline-raw global-mode-string face2 'r)
(powerline-arrow-left face2 face1)
(powerline-raw "%4l" face1 'r)
(powerline-raw ":" face1)
(powerline-raw "%3c" face1 'r)
(powerline-arrow-left face1 nil)
(powerline-raw " ")
(powerline-raw "%6p" nil 'r)
(powerline-hud face2 face1))))
(concat
(powerline-render lhs)
(powerline-fill face2 (powerline-width rhs))
(powerline-render rhs))))))
The last line of this is what actually puts it all together. It makes sure that the XPM images are rendered properly. But notice we pre-compile the rhs of the statusline and this allows us to more accurately right justify the text. There are currently no other "separators", just the arrows. I will be introducing more gradually. This version should be easier to modify.
You can also setup a default mode-line using,
(powerline-default-center)
which sets up a mode-line demonstrating the ability to center mode-line information. It contains the following setup,
(setq-default mode-line-format
'("%e"
(:eval
(let* ((active (eq (frame-selected-window) (selected-window)))
(face1 (if active 'powerline-active1 'powerline-inactive1))
(face2 (if active 'powerline-active2 'powerline-inactive2))
(lhs (list
(powerline-raw "%*" nil 'l)
(powerline-buffer-size nil 'l)
(powerline-buffer-id nil 'l)
(powerline-raw " ")
(powerline-arrow-right nil face1)
(powerline-raw mode-line-process face1 'l)
(powerline-narrow face1 'l)
(powerline-vc face1)
))
(rhs (list
(powerline-raw global-mode-string face2 'r)
(powerline-raw "%4l" face1 'r)
(powerline-raw ":" face1)
(powerline-raw "%3c" face1 'r)
(powerline-arrow-left face1 nil)
(powerline-raw " ")
(powerline-raw "%6p" nil 'r)
(powerline-hud face2 face1)))
(center (list
(powerline-raw " " face1)
(powerline-arrow-right face1 face2)
(powerline-major-mode face2 'l)
(powerline-raw " :" face2)
(powerline-minor-modes face2 'l)
(powerline-raw " " face2)
(powerline-arrow-left face2 face1))))
(concat
(powerline-render lhs)
(powerline-fill-center face1 (/ (powerline-width center) 2.0))
(powerline-render center)
(powerline-fill face1 (powerline-width rhs))
(powerline-render rhs))))))
- Cleaner code.
- Try to simply be a library that provides functions for generating a mode-line
- Make right-aligned text actually be flush against the right side.
- Separators are designed to dynamically size their height based on the font settings.
- Separators spread their width to the nearest character width. (This is required to make right-aligned text actually be right-aligned)
The function should return an XPM image created using the create-image function.
There is a function called memoize that will help make calling the function multiple times with the same parameters be much quicker by caching the return value.
Each divider should have the signature: (face1 face2 &optional height)
face1 : the left-hand face
face2 : the right-hand face
height : specifies the height of the XPM, most of time this is (font-char-height)
Separators should consider the height when they are created so that the mode-line can change sizes based on the font height.
