Group ecb-history

This group contains the following options:

clear-history-behavior User Option
Defines which entries of the history buffer should be deleted if ecb-clear-history is called. Three options are available:
  • not-existing-buffers: All entries which represent a buffername not existing anymore in the bufferlist will be cleared. Probably the most senseful value.
  • existing-buffers: The opposite of 'not-existing-buffers.
  • all: The whole history will be cleared.

history-buffer-after-create-hook User Option
Local hook running after the creation of the history-buffer. Every function of this hook is called once without arguments direct after creating the history-buffer of ECB and it's local keymap. So for example a function could be added which performs calls of local-set-key to define new keybindings only for the history-buffer of ECB.

history-buffer-name User Option
Name of the ECB history buffer. Because it is not a normal buffer for editing you should enclose the name with stars, e.g. "*ECB History*".

If it is necessary for you you can get emacs-lisp access to the buffer-object of the ECB-history-buffer by this name, e.g. by a call of set-buffer.

Changes for this option at runtime will take affect only after deactivating and then activating ECB again!

history-item-name User Option
The name to use for items in the history buffer.

kill-buffer-clears-history User Option
Define if kill-buffer should also clear the history. There are three options:
  • auto: Removes automatically the corresponding history-entry after the buffer has been killed.
  • ask: Asks, if the history-entry should be removed after the kill.
  • nil: kill-buffer does not affect the history (this is the default).

sort-history-items User Option
Sorts the items in the history buffer.
