Re-use visible buffer #423

Open hrls opened 2 years ago

There should be way to specify already existing buffer for commands like check/clippy. Also flag to switch into new window/frame would be useful for mimic IDE-like mess.

I'm not sure if we should add this feature to rust-mode. Some time ago we agreed on keeping rust-mode light-weight since there are lots of users who only want basic features. The idea was that users who want more features can use packages that extend the functionality of rust-mode.

There's a list of packages . Maybe you find these features in one of those packages. If not, you can open an issue there.

But maybe I'm wrong and this would be ok for most rust-mode users and we should document that the user can disable features in rust-mode(this was added some time ago).
