29.3; clone-indirect-buffer-other-window is inconsistent with *-other-window commands |
|

Hi Emacs!
clone-indirect-buffer-other-window does not match the behavior
*-other-window commands (e.g. find-file-other-window).
find-file-other-window calls switch-to-buffer-other-window, which
ensures that the new file /always/ appears in a different window than
the current one.
clone-indirect-buffer-other-window insteads wraps clone-indirect-buffer
in a (pop-up-windows t) binding, which (somehow) results in different
behavior. Depending on the value of display-buffer-alist, the "other
window" can in fact be the active window, making
clone-indirect-buffer-other-window behave indentically to
clone-indirect-buffer.
This can be reproduced with Emacs -Q and the minimal config:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'display-buffer-alist
'(".*"
(display-buffer-reuse-window display-buffer-same-window))
;; Append so default behavior is lowest priority
t)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The convention with *-other-window commands is to, well, run * and
display in another window, regardless of the settings in
display-buffer-alist. switch-to-buffer-other-window is another example
of a command that follows the expected behavior, even though it follows
a similar pattern to clone-indirect-buffer-other-window (wrap a command
in (pop-up-windows t)).
As a possible solution I found that this replacement for
clone-indirect-buffer-other-window behaves as expected:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun my-clone-indirect-buffer-other-window (newname display-flag &optional
norecord)
"Like `clone-indirect-buffer' but display in another window."
(interactive
(progn
(if (get major-mode 'no-clone-indirect)
(error "Cannot indirectly clone a buffer in %s mode" mode-name))
(list (if current-prefix-arg
(read-buffer "Name of indirect buffer: " (current-buffer)))
t)))
(switch-to-buffer-other-window
(clone-indirect-buffer newname display-flag norecord)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
