## Summary:
1 Transient command menus
═════════════════════════
Transient is the library used to implement the keyboard-driven “menus”
in [Magit]. It is distributed as a separate package, so that it can
be used to implement similar menus in [other packages].

1.1 Some things that Transient can do
─────────────────────────────────────
• Display current state of arguments
• Display and manage lifecycle of modal bindings
• Contextual user interface
• Flow control for wizard-like composition of interactive forms
• History & persistence
• Rendering arguments for controlling CLI programs
1.2 Complexity in CLI programs

## Recent NEWS:
# -*- mode: org -*-
* v0.7.0 2024-06-18
- Added new macro ~transient-augment-suffix~, which can be used to
specify the suffix behavior of a command that was previously defined
as a prefix, using ~transient-define-prefix~. 2fd3ea14
- Added new function ~transient-scope~, which is just a convenient way
to get the value of the ~scope~ slot of the ~transient-prefix-object~.
7f6c39c5
- Added new hook ~transient-setup-buffer-hook~, which is run early when
setting the transient menu buffer. #283
- Added new class ~transient-information*~, a variant of recently added
~transient-information~ class. 8a80e952
- By default our macros that define commands, mark those as for
interactive use only. ~(declare (interactive-only nil))~ can now be
used to overwrite that. fcc60e27
- Groups now also accept ~:inapt*~ predicates. 3d395d64
- Spaces between columns is reduced from three to two. dd93001e
- Removed unused ~transient-plist-to-alist~ function. 1251faf0
Bug fixes:
- ~transient--force-fixed-pitch~ was run to late to always succeed. #283
- Key binding conflict detection was too strict, taking hypothetical
bindings for inapt commands into account. c356d1bc
- Key binding conflict detection did not consider bindings in regular
keymaps, such as ~transient-base-map~. 2698d62d
- ~func-arity~ gets confused when a function is advised, so we had to
add a wrapper function ~transient--func-arity~. 91dd7bb3
- Some mistakes, that can be expected to occur when defining suffix and
prefix commands, were not detected. 7e827c31
* v0.6.0 2024-03-21
- On Emacs 28.1 and later, all infix commands and suffix commands
that are defined inline (i.e., using a lambda when defining a prefix
command), are now hidden from ~execute-extended-command~ (aka ~M-x~) /by
default/. It was already possible to hide these commands, but users
had to opt-in explicitly. After refactoring how these commands are
declared to be unsuitable for ~M-x~, it is now possible to hide them
/without/ also hiding other, unrelated kinds of unsuitable commands.
I recommend that you instruct ~M-x~ to hide /all/ unsuitable command.
This requires that you customizing ~read-extended-command-predicate~,
because the Emacs authors have decided that this should be an opt-in
feature.
Note that this has no effect on Emacs releases before 28.1.
- Added documentation stating that ~:class~ has to be specified when
using ~:setup-children~. beecdc85
- Added a new prefix slot ~column-widths~, which can be used to specify
the minimal width of each column in all ~transient-columns~ groups of
that prefix. 92e8952e
- When assigning a name to a suffix that is defined inline, we no
longer use the suffix description, iff that would result in an
overly long name. 81a108ba
- Functions used as the value of face slots can now take one
argument, the suffix object. Functions that take zero arguments
are still supported. Additionally, ~transient--pending-suffix~ is
bound around calls to these functions, but it is better to pass
the object as an argument. f582a9bc
- The new ~definition~ suffix slot can be used to specify a default
function definition that is used if no function body is provided
using ~transient-define-suffix~. 5b334a51
- Taught ~transient-suffix-object~ about ~transient--pending-suffix~.
20a3770d
Bug fixes:
- If ~transient-parse-suffix~ and ~transient-parse-suffixes~ are called
with an invalid value for their ~prefix~ argument, they failed to
detect that. 03e752d9
- If ~nil~ is encountered inside a group specification, that was
silently ignored. Now an error is signaled. 8c01a1eb
- ~find-function~ wasn't able to locate the definitions of infix
commands anymore. a30df67b
- There was no binding for ~ignore-preserving-kill-region~ in
~transient-predicate-map~. 0fc87002
- Invoking a non-symbolic non-suffix command, caused an error.
