edit.pl -- Editor interface
This module implements the generic editor interface. It consists of two extensible parts with little in between. The first part deals with translating the input into source-location, and the second with starting an editor.
edit(+Spec)
- Edit indicated object.
edit
- Edit associated or script file. This is the Prolog file opened
by double-clicking or the file loaded using
% swipl [-s] file.pl
locate(+Spec, -FullSpec, -Location)[multifile]
locate(+Spec, -Location)[multifile]
- Locate object from the specified location.
edit_command(+Editor, -Command)[multifile]
- This predicate should specify the shell-command called to invoke
the user's editor. The following substitutions will be made:
%e Path name of the editor %f Path name of the file to be edited %d Line number of the target select_location(+Pairs, +UserSpec, -Location)[multifile]
