2010-03-25 Show Only rcirc Buffers

The following function will replace whatever you are looking at with all your rcirc targets (channels and query buffers). It turns out that with 13 channels I’m already reaching a limit on this display. Bummer!

rcirc

(defun rcirc-only ()
  (interactive)
  (let (channels)
    (dolist (buf (buffer-list))
      (with-current-buffer buf
	(when (and (eq major-mode 'rcirc-mode)
		   rcirc-target)
	  (setq channels (cons buf channels)))))
    (delete-other-windows)
    (let ((win (selected-window))
	  (size (/ (window-height) (length channels))))
      (dolist (buf channels)
	(split-window-vertically (- (window-height) size))
	(window--display-buffer-2 buf (selected-window)))
      (delete-window win)))
  (balance-windows))

As I said. Useless. Every window is about three lines high. Gaaah! >{

And:

• kensanata: make a synthetic “master irc” buffer and echo all irc channel messages into it using the appropriate hooks, labelling each insert with the channel

17:18 **fledermaus**

• kensanata: possibly use colour coding, eg like alternate row banding in tables, to show when the channel cntext changes

Interesting...
