Most often, the minibuffer is used to read text as a string. It can also be
used to read a Lisp object in textual form. The most basic primitive for
minibuffer input is read-from-minibuffer
; it can do either one.
There are also specialized commands for reading commands, variables, file
names, etc. (voir la section Completion).
In most cases, you should not call minibuffer input functions in the middle
of a Lisp function. Instead, do all minibuffer input as part of reading the
arguments for a command, in the interactive
specification.
Voir la section Defining Commands.
This function is the most general way to get input through the minibuffer.
By default, it accepts arbitrary text and returns it as a string; however,
if read is non-nil
, then it uses read
to convert the
text into a Lisp object (voir la section Input Functions).
The first thing this function does is to activate a minibuffer and display it with prompt-string as the prompt. This value must be a string. Then the user can edit text in the minibuffer.
When the user types a command to exit the minibuffer,
read-from-minibuffer
constructs the return value from the text in the
minibuffer. Normally it returns a string containing that text. However, if
read is non-nil
, read-from-minibuffer
reads the text and
returns the resulting Lisp object, unevaluated. (Voir la section Input Functions,
for information about reading.)
The argument default specifies a default value to make available
through the history commands. It should be a string, or nil
. If
non-nil
, the user can access it using next-history-element
,
usually bound in the minibuffer to M-n. If read is
non-nil
, then default is also used as the input to read
,
if the user enters empty input. (If read is non-nil
and
default is nil
, empty input results in an end-of-file
error.) However, in the usual case (where read is nil
),
read-from-minibuffer
ignores default when the user enters empty
input and returns an empty string, ""
. In this respect, it is
different from all the other minibuffer input functions in this chapter.
If keymap is non-nil
, that keymap is the local keymap to use in
the minibuffer. If keymap is omitted or nil
, the value of
minibuffer-local-map
is used as the keymap. Specifying a keymap is
the most important way to customize the minibuffer for various applications
such as completion.
The argument hist specifies which history list variable to use for
saving the input and for history commands used in the minibuffer. It
defaults to minibuffer-history
. Voir la section Minibuffer History.
If the variable minibuffer-allow-text-properties
is non-nil
,
then the string which is returned includes whatever text properties were
present in the minibuffer. Otherwise all the text properties are stripped
when the value is returned.
If the argument inherit-input-method is non-nil
, then the
minibuffer inherits the current input method (voir la section Input Methods) and the
setting of enable-multibyte-characters
(voir la section Text Representations)
from whichever buffer was current before entering the minibuffer.
Use of initial-contents is mostly deprecated; we recommend using a
non-nil
value only in conjunction with specifying a cons cell for
hist. Voir la section Initial Input.
This function reads a string from the minibuffer and returns it. The
arguments prompt, initial, history and
inherit-input-method are used as in read-from-minibuffer
. The
keymap used is minibuffer-local-map
.
The optional argument default is used as in
read-from-minibuffer
, except that, if non-nil
, it also
specifies a default value to return if the user enters null input. As in
read-from-minibuffer
it should be a string, or nil
, which is
equivalent to an empty string.
This function is a simplified interface to the read-from-minibuffer
function:
(read-string prompt initial history default inherit) ≡ (let ((value (read-from-minibuffer prompt initial nil nil history default inherit))) (if (and (equal value "") default) default value)) |
If this variable is nil
, then read-from-minibuffer
strips all
text properties from the minibuffer input before returning it. This
variable also affects read-string
. However,
read-no-blanks-input
(see below), as well as read-minibuffer
and related functions (voir la section Reading Lisp Objects With the Minibuffer), and all functions that do minibuffer input with
completion, discard text properties unconditionally, regardless of the value
of this variable.
This is the default local keymap for reading from the minibuffer. By default, it makes the following bindings:
exit-minibuffer
exit-minibuffer
abort-recursive-edit
next-history-element
previous-history-element
next-matching-history-element
previous-matching-history-element
This function reads a string from the minibuffer, but does not allow
whitespace characters as part of the input: instead, those characters
terminate the input. The arguments prompt, initial, and
inherit-input-method are used as in read-from-minibuffer
.
This is a simplified interface to the read-from-minibuffer
function,
and passes the value of the minibuffer-local-ns-map
keymap as the
keymap argument for that function. Since the keymap
minibuffer-local-ns-map
does not rebind C-q, it is
possible to put a space into the string, by quoting it.
This function discards text properties, regardless of the value of
minibuffer-allow-text-properties
.
(read-no-blanks-input prompt initial) ≡ (let (minibuffer-allow-text-properties) (read-from-minibuffer prompt initial minibuffer-local-ns-map)) |
This built-in variable is the keymap used as the minibuffer local keymap in
the function read-no-blanks-input
. By default, it makes the
following bindings, in addition to those of minibuffer-local-map
:
exit-minibuffer
exit-minibuffer
self-insert-and-exit
