;;; Commentary:

;; This provides `autoarg-mode', a global minor mode meant to emulate
;; a facility reported from Twenex Emacs whereby digit keys supplied
;; prefix args rather than self inserting, with a digit sequence
;; terminated by space acting to insert the digits.

;; The bindings of DIGIT and C-DIGIT are swapped and a command bound
;; to SPC deals with a numeric prefix arg or acts normally without
;; such an arg.  (In the absence of a suitable terminal, you'd
;; probably want to swap DIGIT and M-DIGIT.)  See the mode doc.

;; You probably don't really want to use this.

;; Also provides `autoarg-kp-mode' which is similar, but leaves the
;; digit keys alone and redefines the `keypad' keys, `kp-1' &c as
;; digit arguments.  (Use `NumLock' if necessary to generate kp-N.)
;; You're more likely to want to use this.

;;; Code:

(defvar autoarg-mode-map
  (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))
    ;; Loop over digit characters to set up keymap.
    (dotimes (i 10)
      (define-key map `[,(+ ?0 i)] 'digit-argument)
      (define-key map `[(control ,(+ ?0 i))] 'self-insert-command))
    (define-key map " " 'autoarg-terminate)
    map)
  "Keymap for Autoarg mode.")

;; Logical additions:
;; (define-key autoarg-mode-map [?-] 'negative-argument)
;; (define-key autoarg-mode-map [(control ?-)] 'self-insert-command)
;; A sensible/addition?

(define-minor-mode autoarg-mode
  "Toggle Autoarg mode, a global minor mode.

\\<autoarg-mode-map>
In Autoarg mode, digits are bound to `digit-argument', i.e. they
supply prefix arguments as C-DIGIT and M-DIGIT normally do.
Furthermore, C-DIGIT inserts DIGIT.
\\[autoarg-terminate] terminates the prefix sequence and inserts
the digits of the autoarg sequence into the buffer.
Without a numeric prefix arg, the normal binding of \\[autoarg-terminate]
is invoked, i.e. what it would be with Autoarg mode off.

For example:
`6 9 \\[autoarg-terminate]' inserts `69' into the buffer, as does `C-6 C-9'.
`6 9 a' inserts 69 `a's into the buffer.
`6 9 \\[autoarg-terminate] \\[autoarg-terminate]' inserts `69' into the buffer and
then invokes the normal binding of \\[autoarg-terminate].
`C-u \\[autoarg-terminate]' invokes the normal binding of \\[autoarg-terminate] four times.
