Commands? #1

I love HyperList, and also live in Emacs. This is great. Are there plans to replicate the same functionality as the HyperList Vim Plugin? Many thanks in advance!

Currently there are no explicit plans but I'm not against adding more features either. Any specific commands you're missing?

I think those relating mostly to manipulation and navigation of the file:

  • Collapse and uncollapse parts of a HyperList

It's already provided by outline-mode which hyperlist-mode extends. See: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Outline-Visibility.html

  • Linking/referencing between elements (items) in a list
  • Easy navigation in lists, including jumping to references
  • Autonumbering of items and sub-items (children) and renumbering of visually selected items

These might get tricky, though it might be possible to borrow some functionality from org-mode.

  • "Presentation mode" that folds everything but the current item

Once again outline-mode should provide it already one way or another.

  • Highlighting of the current item and its children

Try C-c @ (outline-mark-subtree).

  • Export a HyperList to HTML, LaTeX or TPP formats

Consider using https://github.com/hniksic/emacs-htmlize

Please tell me which of these features seem already solved for you and which not (and why), considering what I wrote above.

I think of all of the missing features, linking/referencing between elements (items) in a list is the one I'm missing most.
