;;; Commentary:
;; This file defines a menu of faces (bold, italic, etc) which
;; allows you to set the face used for a region of the buffer.
;; Some faces also have keybindings, which are shown in the menu.  

;;; Installation:
;; Put this file somewhere on emacs's load-path, and put
;;   (require 'facemenu)
;; in your .emacs file.

;;; Usage:
;; Selecting a face from the menu or typing the keyboard equivalent
;; will change the region to use that face.  
;; If you use transient-mark-mode and the region is not active, the
;; face will be remembered and used for the next insertion.  It will
;; be forgotten if you move point or make other modifications before
;; inserting or typing anything.
;;
;; Faces can be selected from the keyboard as well.  
;; The standard keybindings are M-s (or ESC s) + letter:
;; M-s i = "set italic",  M-s b = "set bold", etc.

;;; Customization:
;; An alternative set of keybindings that may be easier to type can be set up
;; using "Hyper" keys.  This requires that you set up a hyper-key on your
;; keyboard.  On my system, putting the following command in my .xinitrc:
;;    xmodmap -e "keysym Alt_L = Hyper_L" -e "add Mod2 = Hyper_L"
;; makes the key labelled "Alt" act as a hyper key, but check with local
;; X-perts for how to do it on your system. If you do this, then put the
;; following in your .emacs before the (require 'facemenu):
;;   (setq facemenu-keybindings
;;    '((default     . [?\H-d])
;;      (bold        . [?\H-b])
;;      (italic      . [?\H-i])
;;      (bold-italic . [?\H-o])
;;      (underline   . [?\H-u])))
;;   (setq facemenu-keymap global-map)
;;   (setq facemenu-key nil)
;;
;; In general, the order of the faces that appear in the menu and their
;; keybindings can be controlled by setting the variable
;; `facemenu-keybindings'.  Faces that you never want to add to your
;; document (e.g., `region') are listed in `facemenu-unlisted-faces'.

;;; Known Problems:
;; Only works with Emacs 19.23 and later.
;;
;; There is at present no way to display what the faces look like in
;; the menu itself.
;;
;; `list-faces-display' shows the faces in a different order than
;; this menu, which could be confusing.  I do /not/ sort the list
;; alphabetically, because I like the default order: it puts the most
;; basic, common fonts first.
;;
;; Please send me any other problems, comments or ideas.
