## Summary:

  1 Transient command menus
  ═════════════════════════

    Transient is the library used to implement the keyboard-driven “menus”
    in [Magit].  It is distributed as a separate package, so that it can
    be used to implement similar menus in [other packages].

## Recent NEWS:

# -*- mode: org -*-
* v0.8.1    2024-12-08

Bug fixes:

- Interactively setting the level of a transient prefix resulted in
  an error.  #337.

* v0.8.0    2024-12-06

- While the minibuffer is in use, the menu window is now hidden by
  default.  The new option ~transient-show-during-minibuffer-read~ not
  only controls whether the menu stays visible while the minibuffer
  is in use, but also whether it may be resized if necessary.  This
  new option replaces ~transient-hide-during-minibuffer-read~.  #330

- When returning to a prefix whose ~refresh-suffixes~ slot is non-nil,
  its suffixes are now re-initialized.  #327

- Added documentation for ~inapt-if*~ slots to manual.  179545a6

- ~transient-args~ and ~transient-scope~ now both take a prefix command or
  a list of prefix commands as argument.  ~transient-scope~ can still be
  called without an argument, but that should only be done in functions
  that take part in setting up a menu, not in a suffix command.

- Added new generic function ~transient-prefix-value~, giving finer
  control over how the value returned by ~transient-args~ is determined.

- Added support for implementing ~transient-init-scope~ methods for
  prefix classes.

- ~transient-setup-buffer-hook~ is now run later to allow overriding
  more default settings.

- The new prefix slots ~display-action~ and ~mode-line-format~, can be
  used to override ~transient-display-buffer-action~ and
  ~transient-mode-line-format~ for individual prefix menus.  #332

- Updated the manual considerably.

Bug fixes:

- Fixes some menu navigation edge-cases.

* v0.7.9    2024-11-04

Bug fixes:

- Fixed a recent regression in ~transient-suffix-object~.  #325

- The height of the transient window was fixed even it used the full
  frame height.  5478d4e6

* v0.7.8    2024-11-02

- Additional potential mistakes in menu definitions are now detected.
  bbda5bb6, 8873c300

- Added new (and still experimental) ~environment~ prefix slot, which
  can be used to, for example, implement a cache to be used while
  refreshing the menu.  05c011b8

- When navigating through the menu using the keyboard or hovering a
  suffix command with the mouse, information about the command is now
  shown in the echo area or using a tooltip.  #282

Bug fixes:

- When the command that exits a transient uses the minibuffer,
  ~transient-current-*~ variables were not immediately reset to
  ~nil~. #323

- Key sequences with three or more events broke
  ~transient-suffix-object~.  #324

* v0.7.7    2024-10-04

Bug fix:

- Fix a regression introduced by the previous commit, which broke
  dynamic prefixes that use a ~:setup-children~ function to prepare
  their suffixes.  #313

* v0.7.6    2024-10-01

- ~transient-active-prefix~ now accepts a single prefix symbol, in place
  of a list of such symbols.  #307

- ~other-frame-prefix~ and ~other-window-prefix~ can now be used while a
  transient prefix is active.  #305

- Added new macro ~transient-with-help-window~ for use in ~:show-help~
  functions.  #309

* v0.7.5    2024-09-01

- Updated tooling.

Bug fixes:

- ~static-if~ is now used correctly.  0e35673e

- When an existing window ends up being used to display the transient
  buffer, then the previous value of the ~no-other-window~ parameter is
  now restored, when the transient is exited.  #302

- The names assigned to suffixes, which are defined using lambdas in
  the prefix definition, are now guaranteed to be unique.  #304

* v0.7.4    2024-08-05

- Added new function ~transient-active-prefix~.

* v0.7.3    2024-07-13

- Refactored code responsible for inserting columns.

Bug fix:

- The ~transient-current-*~ variables are intended to only be used by
  suffix commands, when they are invoked from a prefix.  Previously
  they were only cleared when the prefix is ultimately exited, which
  meant that they unintentionally were accessible in timers.  Now the
  values of these variables are nil when used outside their intended
  scope.  0e0ece32, f2cb28a5

* v0.7.2    2024-06-24
