Add defcustom for symbols to highlight in results buffer #3

Open articuluxe opened 4 years ago

articuluxe commented 4 years ago

Usually when I run I will only care about 1 symbol in the results list, and this would save scanning all of the symbols every time.

I agree - the source currency should be highlighted.

Do you know elisp, and if so, would you like to make a PR?

lassik commented 4 years ago

The conversions are in listed in alphabetical order, so that should help find the target currency quickly.

...and saves typing as well as letting you convert to more than one currency with the same effort and compare those amounts.

Perhaps the *Currency* buffer should be editable so you can delete the conversions you don't care about. You can already copy text from that buffer into another though.

Perhaps there should be a separate command M-x currency-convert-pair for people who only want one particular target currency to be shown.

Or M-x currency-convert could ask for the target currency, but it could be left blank (i.e. just press Enter at that prompt without typing anything) to show all conversions.

I implemented this and pushed to master.
