;;; Commentary:

;; This library provides a minor mode to display a ruler in the header
;; line.  It works only on Emacs 21.
;;
;; You can use the mouse to change the `fill-column' `comment-column',
;; `goal-column', `window-margins' and `tab-stop-list' settings:
;;
;; [header-line (shift down-mouse-1)] set left margin end to the ruler
;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
;;
;; [header-line (shift down-mouse-3)] set right margin beginning to
;; the ruler graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
;;
;; [header-line down-mouse-2] Drag the `fill-column', `comment-column'
;; or `goal-column' to a ruler graduation.
;;
;; [header-line (control down-mouse-1)] add a tab stop to the ruler
;; graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
;;
;; [header-line (control down-mouse-3)] remove the tab stop at the
;; ruler graduation where the mouse pointer is on.
;;
;; [header-line (control down-mouse-2)] or M-x
;; `ruler-mode-toggle-show-tab-stops' toggle showing and visually
;; editing `tab-stop-list' setting.  The `ruler-mode-show-tab-stops'
;; option controls if the ruler shows tab stops by default.
;;
;; In the ruler the character `ruler-mode-current-column-char' shows
;; the `current-column' location, `ruler-mode-fill-column-char' shows
;; the `fill-column' location, `ruler-mode-comment-column-char' shows
;; the `comment-column' location, `ruler-mode-goal-column-char' shows
;; the `goal-column' and `ruler-mode-tab-stop-char' shows tab stop
;; locations.  Graduations in `window-margins' and `window-fringes'
;; areas are shown with a different foreground color.
;;
;; It is also possible to customize the following characters:
;;
;; - `ruler-mode-basic-graduation-char' character used for basic
;;   graduations ('.' by default).
;; - `ruler-mode-inter-graduation-char' character used for
;;   intermediate graduations ('!' by default).
;;
;; The following faces are customizable:
;;
;; - `ruler-mode-default-face' the ruler default face.
;; - `ruler-mode-fill-column-face' the face used to highlight the
;;   `fill-column' character.
;; - `ruler-mode-comment-column-face' the face used to highlight the
;;   `comment-column' character.
;; - `ruler-mode-goal-column-face' the face used to highlight the
;;   `goal-column' character.
;; - `ruler-mode-current-column-face' the face used to highlight the
;;   `current-column' character.
;; - `ruler-mode-tab-stop-face' the face used to highlight tab stop
;;   characters.
;; - `ruler-mode-margins-face' the face used to highlight graduations
;;   in the `window-margins' areas.
;; - `ruler-mode-fringes-face' the face used to highlight graduations
;;   in the `window-fringes' areas.
;; - `ruler-mode-column-number-face' the face used to highlight the
;;   numbered graduations.
;;
;; `ruler-mode-default-face' inherits from the built-in `default' face.
;; All `ruler-mode' faces inherit from `ruler-mode-default-face'.
;;
;; WARNING: To keep ruler graduations aligned on text columns it is
;; important to use the same font family and size for ruler and text
;; areas.

;; Installation
;;
;; To automatically display the ruler in specific major modes use:
;;
;;    (add-hook '<major-mode>-hook 'ruler-mode)
