Improve status-bar indicators #19

Closed Alhadis closed 6 years ago

Alhadis commented 8 years ago

Suggested improvements:

  1. Option to control visibility
    As you can see here, the indicators are showing for a file that isn't even Lisp: figure-1

    A package setting could be added to address this, ideally with three options:

    • [x] Show for Lisp files only (default)
    • [ ] Always show
    • [ ] Never show

  2. Add visual cues to denote interactivity
    I literally just installed this package and had no idea the indicators were even interactive until I clicked by accident. I'd recommend underlining the right-half on rollover, and changing the cursor to the usual pointer displayed for regular hyperlinks.

  3. Add tooltips to describe what each indicator does when pressed
    Following on from point 2, Atom tooltips should be used to inform the user what clicking each indicator does. I still don't know what the left-half does, but I'm guessing the right-half toggles the strict setting.
