It occurred to me that this could also be done at insertion time into the menu. Just add an actual :included to items (vectors) with symbol callbacks. That way, it's obvious to anyone hacking the menu that default :included values are now being inserted. I did this (patch attached), though it turned out to be a bit more complicated than that. Items in the deprecated ["Name" callback active-p suffix] form (without keys) won't accept additional keywords. So I also added a preprocessing step to add keywords to such items. This insertion-time modification might break something, if it depended on the internal format of menu-items it had already added to the menu. I don't know of anything that does this, and it seems to work fine so far here, but it's a possibility. I'm not sure if this, or implicitly doing it at menu-load time is better. ... This would be quite nice, but would require all modes to declare their commands. Maybe this could be grabbed from the auto-load cookies? I expect commands are usually autoloaded. But using autoload cookies would require assuming that all commands in a file are specifically meaningful in the mode defined in that file. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
