The `last-command' variable in Emacs Lisp
I wrote a snippet to copy previous line to point,if I repeat the command,it copy more previous line. It's here:
(defun my-copy-line (num)
"copy lines"
(interactive "p")
(save-excursion
(move-end-of-line 1)
(push-mark)
(move-beginning-of-line num)
(kill-ring-save (point) (mark))))
(defvar copy-line-num 1)
(defun my-copy-line-here (num)
"copy line ahead here"
(interactive "p")
(if (eq this-command last-command)
(setq copy-line-num (+ copy-line-num num)) ;count num lines up
(setq copy-line-default 1))
(save-excursion
(save-excursion ;make current line blank
(move-beginning-of-line 1)
(push-mark)
(move-end-of-line 1)
(kill-regio开发者_开发技巧n (point) (mark))) ;不用kill-line,以免删除空白行
(push-mark)
(previous-line copy-line-num)
(my-copy-line 1)
(exchange-point-and-mark)
(yank))
(setq this-command 'my-copy-line-here))
I intended to yank previous line to override current line.If I repeat my-copy-line-here
,I'll yank the 2th previous line,this is accomplished by the test (if (eq this-command last-command)
.But it failed ,Because every time after executing my-copy-line-here
,it sets the last-command
to yank
,instead my-copy-line-here
.I just can't figure out what's going on.I need your help.
`M-y (yank-pop) works similarly, pasting previous copied lines on repeated calls. Checking its sources, I see two differences with yours:
; explicit check for yank
(if (not (eq last-command 'yank))
; setting this command
(setq this-command 'yank)
Perhaps one or both of these together can be useful. Set this-command
after calling yank
maybe?
