Help for dispatch actions #103

Closed DamienCassou closed 6 years ago

DamienCassou commented 6 years ago

When pressing ?, a list of all actions is displayed in the echo area.

Limitation: When pressing ?, the actions are correctly displayed, but ace-window exits. It could be nice if ace-window would stay around, waiting for the next char.

Thanks. I've added a tiny fix for the limitation you mentioned:)

I tried this approach before and it does not work (for me at least):

  1. Trigger ace-window
  2. Press ?
  3. Press x to delete a window

ace-window does not restore colors properly.

I press ?xd, everything works for me. Can you reproduce with emacs -Q?

DamienCassou commented 6 years ago

I can. Please see https://github.com/abo-abo/ace-window/issues/105.
