> https://github.com/phillord/lentic This is nice to see! Indeed, except for embedding, there is a large overlap with what I described as buffer lenses. BTW, judging by this description: "changes percolation now happens incrementally, so only those parts of the buffer are updated. As a result, lentic now cope with long files with little noticable delay", the buffers don't share any data and need to sync with the master [linked] buffer. Is this the best solution? I have imagined that at the low level there is an actual data structure that keeps the raw textual data and it could be directly shared by multiple buffers. I mean, when a buffer is saved to a file, the text doesn't need to be stripped of properties beforehand, right? чт, 25 апр. 2019 г. в 07:37, Noam Postavsky <npost...@gmail.com>: > Dmitrii Korobeinikov <dim12...@gmail.com> writes: > > > * Implementation > > > > I am not familiar with Emacs internals to say what's feasible of the > > proposed structure. > > Have you looked at Phil Lord's lentic package?
