Bug#933323: ITP: transient -- emacs key and popup interface for complex keybindings



Package: wnpp
Owner: Remi Vanicat <vanicat@debian.org>
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : transient
  Version         : 0.1.0
  Upstream Author : Jonas Bernoulli <jonas@bernoul.li>
* URL or Web page : https://github.com/magit/transient

  Description     : emacs key and popup interface for complex keybindings

Taking inspiration from prefix keys and prefix arguments, Transient
implements a similar abstraction involving a prefix command, infix
arguments and suffix commands.

When the user calls a transient prefix command, then a transient
(temporary) keymap is activated, which binds the transient's infix and
suffix commands. The available suffix and infix commands and their state
are shown in a popup buffer until the transient is exited by invoking a
suffix command.

This package will be a dependency for future version of magit.
